Europe. Napoleon is neglected by his British captors, and will finally die in
1821, at age 51, from what appears to be arsenic poisoning.
Napoleon dies. The legend lives. His coffin is still on display in Paris.

BALANCE OF POWER POLITICS / THE CONGRESS OF
VIENNA RESHAPES EUROPE
After Napoleon’s defeat, the European powers hold a series of meetings in
Vienna, Austria. Political boundaries are redrawn. Old disputes are settled.
These conferences are known as Vienna “Though many nations participate, the
Congress is run by the “Big Four” (Britain, Prussia, Russia, & Austria). The
most notable decision reached at Vienna is the consolidation of 360 small
German states, into a German Confederation of 38 states.
Arrangements made by the Four Great Powers ensure that future disputes will be
settled in a manner that will avoid the wars of the previous twenty years.
Although the Congress of Vienna preserves the “balance of power” in Europe, it
does not check the spread of the Red revolutionary movements that are being
born, and will spread across Europe some 30 years later.’
