The Wars of Religion in France from 1560-1648 and the Thirty Years War from 1618-1648 were both devastating religious conflicts that weakened the power of royal authority in Europe and left the continent divided. The Wars of Religion in France established the Bourbon dynasty and granted Huguenots limited religious rights through the Edict of Nantes. The Thirty Years War ended with the Peace of Westphalia, which established principles of state sovereignty and religious tolerance while curtailing Habsburg power in the Holy Roman Empire. Both conflicts caused widespread death, economic ruin, and political fragmentation across Europe.
The document summarizes the key events leading up to the French Revolution. It describes the unequal system that existed with the First and Second Estates (clergy and nobility) paying no taxes while the Third Estate (ordinary people) paid all taxes. Ideas of the Enlightenment spread and questioned this unequal system. As France's financial problems grew, the king was forced to call the Estates General, but the Third Estate broke off and formed the National Assembly, seeking fair taxation and more power. This led to unrest and the storming of the Bastille prison, fueling the Revolution.
The document summarizes the notable contributions of several medieval European monarchs, including William the Conqueror of England who conducted the Domesday Book census; Henry II of England who broadened the royal justice system and began the jury system; John of England who signed the Magna Carta limiting monarchal power; and Edward I of England who created the Model Parliament establishing the bicameral legislature. In France, Hugh Capet increased royal power and made the throne hereditary founding the Capetian Dynasty, while Philip Augustus expanded royal lands and organized a standing army and national tax. Louis IX of France centralized the monarchy through expanded royal courts and ending serfdom. Philip IV of France established the Estates General
The document summarizes the Congress of Vienna and the post-Napoleonic order established under Austrian Chancellor Metternich. It discusses the goals of limiting French power, restoring legitimacy to pre-Napoleonic monarchies, and maintaining a balance of power. It also describes the various conferences and agreements that upheld Metternich's vision, including the Holy Alliance, Congress System, and protocols to crush revolutionary movements. Metternich's dominance guided these efforts to stabilize Europe after the Napoleonic Wars.
The Concert of Europe and the Conservative Political Orderwilliam_via
The document discusses the Concert of Europe and the conservative order established after the Napoleonic Wars. Key figures like Metternich, the Austrian foreign minister, sought to maintain peace and suppress revolutionary ideas emerging in Germany and elsewhere. The Great Powers issued declarations supporting conservative principles and repression of dissent. Throughout the 1810s and 1820s, various decrees and laws cracked down on radicals and imposed censorship. The goal was to prevent the spread of revolutionary philosophies and protect the existing political order in Europe.

The French Wars of Religion were a series of armed conflicts between French Catholics and Huguenots (Calvinists) in the sixteenth century. The Catholic faction was led by Catherine de Medici and the Huguenots were led by Henry of Navarre, who would later become Henry IV of France. Upon becoming king, Henry converted to Catholicism ("Paris is worth a Mass.") and issued the Edict of Nantes, which granted Huguenots limited toleration and rights to practice their religion openly in certain cities.

The document provides an overview of absolutism in Europe during the 1600s-1700s, including:
- The Thirty Years' War (1618-1648) devastated Germany and led to the rise of strong absolute monarchies like France and Sweden.
- Louis XIV established an absolute monarchy in France through policies like the Palace of Versailles and revoking the Edict of Nantes.
- Peter the Great modernized Russia by westernizing the military, government, and founding the new capital St. Petersburg.
- The Seven Years' War (1756-1763) was a global conflict involving European powers competing for territory and trade.
The Congress of Vienna from 1814 to 1815 aimed to redraw the political map of Europe after the Napoleonic Wars. Key goals included reducing France's power by returning its borders to 1792 lines, restoring monarchies that Napoleon had replaced, and establishing a new balance of power through territorial concessions that strengthened Austria, Prussia, Russia and other states. The Congress made numerous decisions that reshaped borders and transferred lands, seeking to prevent future conflicts through this reorganization of Europe.
Magna Carta established political freedoms and legal protections for nobles against unjust treatment by the king, including the right to a fair trial and representation through a committee of nobles. It marked the beginning of the decline of feudalism as kings were now limited in their power over nobles, and future kings recognized they were bound by Magna Carta. The 11th and 12th centuries saw a struggle between the church and state for authority, with the church wanting the king to accept its authority, while kings and popes sought to increase their own power over bishops and the appointment of new bishops.
The English Revolution began when King Charles I came to power and tried to assert absolute rule over Parliament, leading to conflict. This erupted into the English Civil War between 1642-1649, with Parliament's Puritan supporters defeating the Royalists. Charles I was executed and England became a republic led by Oliver Cromwell. After Cromwell's death, the monarchy was restored but with new limits on the King's power established through laws like the Petition of Right and Habeas Corpus. The Glorious Revolution of 1688 further weakened royal power in favor of Parliament.

The French Revolution began in 1789 and overthrew the French monarchy and feudal system of land ownership. Growing discontentment among the common people led the Third Estate to form the National Assembly and storm the Bastille prison. This sparked the Revolution and transformed France from an absolute monarchy to a republic. However, internal power struggles and war with other European nations led to increased radicalization as the Revolution spiraled into the Reign of Terror under Robespierre and the Committee of Public Safety. The Revolution eventually gave way to rule under the French Directory and then the rise of Napoleon Bonaparte as emperor in 1804.

Rising discontentment among the common people due to financial crisis and lack of political representation led to the storming of the Bastille prison and the beginning of the Revolution. A National Assembly was formed to write a constitution and establish a new government. However, political divisions and war with neighboring countries led to increased radicalization and the rise of Robespierre and the Reign of Terror period from 1793-1794, culminating in the execution of Louis XVI. The Revolution continued to evolve politically and militarily over the next decade until Napoleon Bonaparte seized power in 1799 and later crowned himself Emperor in 180
The Congress of Vienna was an international conference called after Napoleon's defeat to restore the pre-revolutionary monarchies, redraw the map of Europe, and establish a system of alliances to maintain the balance of power. Key outcomes included reinstating absolute monarchy and the divine right of kings; creating buffer states around France; compensating Austria, Prussia, Russia, and other allied nations with new territories; and initially suppressing nationalist and liberal movements. However, the Congress ultimately failed to entirely roll back revolutionary ideals as democratic revolts continued across Europe in the following decades.
The Thirty Years' War ended in 1648 with the Peace of Westphalia, which established new political boundaries and order in Europe. It affirmed that German princes could determine the religion of their territories and nullified the Edict of Restitution. The Peace of Westphalia also established the sovereignty of states and non-intervention in other states' internal affairs, forming the basis of the modern international system. The war left Germany fragmented politically and economically weakened, while France emerged as the dominant power in Europe.

The French Revolution began in 1789 and overthrew the French monarchy, establishing a republic. It experienced periods of political turmoil and violence, culminating in the Reign of Terror led by Robespierre and the Jacobins from 1793-1794. The Revolution had a major impact both in France and across Europe, spreading revolutionary ideals while also provoking foreign powers to go to war against France. It established France as a major military power under Napoleon, though the monarchy was eventually restored after his defeat in 1815.
6. Absolutism, Power, And More ConflictJessica Clark
The document discusses the causes and events of the French Revolution. It began with widespread discontent among the lower classes due to high bread prices and poverty while the king lived extravagantly. Enlightenment ideas of equality and representative government also grew increasingly influential. When the Estates-General met in 1789 to address the country's debt crisis, the Third Estate demanded equal representation which led to the formation of the National Assembly and the abolition of feudalism. The storming of the Bastille and fear among peasants further radicalized the Revolution.

The document summarizes key events of the French Revolution from 1789 to 1792. It describes how the Third Estate demanded equal representation in the Estates-General, leading them to declare themselves the National Assembly. Facing foreign threats, the Assembly abolished privileges of the nobility and clergy and adopted the Declaration of the Rights of Man. They also nationalized the Catholic Church and instituted a constitutional monarchy, though the king attempted to flee and war broke out with Austria over fears the revolution would spread.
The Congress of Vienna met in 1814-1815 to redraw the map of Europe in the aftermath of the Napoleonic Wars. It was attended by representatives of the main European powers of Austria, Prussia, Russia, Britain and France. The Congress was largely dominated by the Austrian statesman Klemens von Metternich, who believed in restoring the old monarchical order and resisting revolutionary forces. The goals of the Congress were to maintain the balance of power in Europe, contain French power, and legitimize existing governments. It established a system through which the major powers could collectively intervene to suppress future revolutionary movements, helping maintain peace in Europe for decades. However, it also represented a deliberate step back from the democratic and liberal
The Glorious Revolution of 1688 saw William of Orange defeat King James II of England and assume the throne. The conflict was rooted in a longstanding family feud between the Protestant supporters of Parliament and the absolute rule of Catholic monarchs like James II. When James II had a Catholic son and heir, it threatened Protestant rule, so William of Orange invaded with support from English nobles and people dissatisfied with James' policies. James fled to France, and William and Mary became the joint monarchs, legitimized by Parliament and beginning a new constitutional monarchy with the Declaration of Rights limiting royal power.
The National Assembly made several key political and social reforms during the first stage of the French Revolution, including revoking the privileges of the nobility such as special legal status and tax exemptions. They issued the Declaration of the Rights of Man which established equal rights for all male citizens. The Assembly also placed the Catholic Church under state control and dissolved monasteries. Finally, they wrote the Constitution of 1791 which established a limited monarchy.
The Congress of Vienna was convened in 1815 to redraw the map of Europe after Napoleon's defeat. Its main goals were to keep France in check and maintain the balance of power in Europe by restoring pre-Napoleonic borders and establishing a "Concert of Europe" system where the major powers would collectively manage affairs. Key decisions included restoring France's 1789 borders while adding territory to Russia, Prussia, and Austria, as well as creating the Netherlands and the German Confederation.
The document discusses the political, economic, social, and religious transformations that occurred in Europe between the 16th and 18th centuries. It covers the Protestant Reformation, the ensuing Wars of Religion, the rise of absolutism in France and central/eastern Europe in response to crisis, and the establishment of constitutional monarchy in England through the English Civil War and Glorious Revolution.
The document summarizes the key causes of World War 1 in 3 points:
1. Rivalries and tensions within the alliance system in Europe increased the risk of war breaking out. Countries formed alliances that put them against each other and tensions rose due to imperialist rivalries over colonies and territory.
2. Internal dissent and unrest within countries from groups like communists, socialists, and labor unions added to tensions and instability in European societies.
3. As tensions rose, countries engaged in militarism and a buildup of their armed forces through conscription and increasing the size of their militaries, which further increased the risk of war.

The Peace of Prague in 1636 ended the civil war aspect of the Thirty Years' War between the Hapsburg Emperor Ferdinand II and the Electorate of Saxony, with Saxony gaining territories. The Franco-Swedish Intervention from 1635 to 1648 involved France and Sweden aiding Protestant forces against the Holy Roman Empire. The Peace of Westphalia in 1646 finally ended the Thirty Years' War, establishing religious toleration within the Holy Roman Empire and redrawing territorial boundaries.
The document discusses the transition from absolutism to constitutionalism in England. It describes how James I and Charles I ruled as absolute monarchs and clashed with Parliament over money and religion. This led to the English Civil War between Royalists and Parliamentarians. Oliver Cromwell emerged victorious and established a Puritan republic. After Cromwell's death, the monarchy was restored but tensions remained over succession and religion. This ultimately led to the Glorious Revolution and the arrival of the Protestant William and Mary, who agreed to a constitutional monarchy that limited royal power and affirmed rights like habeas corpus.
This document provides background on the development of constitutional monarchy in England from 1215 to 1688. Key events include the Magna Carta in 1215, which established limits on royal power; the Model Parliament of 1295, which gave parliament power over taxation; and the Elizabethan period, which established a balance of power between the monarch and parliament. Tensions increased under the Stuart kings James I and Charles I, leading to the English Civil War between Royalists and Parliamentarians from 1642-1649 and the establishment of the Commonwealth and Protectorate. The Restoration in 1660 saw the return of the monarchy under Charles II, but religious conflicts increased under James II, culminating in the Glorious Revolution of 1
English society in the 17th century was dominated by wealthy landowning gentry and Calvinist Puritans, who sought to limit the power of the king and influence of the Catholic church. King James I and King Charles I both exhibited absolutist tendencies and sought to rule without Parliament, leading to conflicts over taxation, religious reforms, and legal rights that escalated into the English Civil War. Parliament increasingly asserted its powers and rights in opposition to the king's absolutism.
The English Civil War began as tensions grew between King Charles I and Parliament over issues of taxation, religious policies, and their respective rights and authority. Key events exacerbated these tensions and ultimately led to open war, including Charles' appointment of William Laud as Archbishop of Canterbury, his ordering of Ship Money taxes, his 11 years of ruling without Parliament, and Parliament presenting him with a list of grievances in the Grand Remonstrance of 1642.
The document summarizes key events in the growth of capitalism and development of Britain from the 15th century to early 19th century. It discusses the enclosure movement forcing peasants off land into cities, growth of foreign trade and colonies, strengthening of the government under Henry VII, the English Reformation and Renaissance, the bourgeois revolution and civil war, establishment of the Commonwealth and restoration of the monarchy, Britain's increasing power through foreign affairs and colonies, and the industrial revolution.
Charles I faced growing distrust from Parliament due to religious differences. He needed money from Parliament to fund wars but took unpopular actions like forced loans, imprisonment without cause, and quartering of soldiers. This led to conflicts, including with Scotland over a new Anglican prayer book. It resulted in an English Civil War between Royalists and Parliamentarians led by Oliver Cromwell, who defeated Charles I. The Rump Parliament then condemned Charles to death for treason, declaring England a Commonwealth under Cromwell's rule.
England has a long history that has shaped its modern parliamentary democracy. Key events include the Norman Conquest in 1066 which established feudalism; the signing of the Magna Carta in 1215 which limited royal power; the English Civil War of 1642-1649 and the execution of Charles I, establishing Parliament's supremacy; and the Glorious Revolution of 1688 which deposed James II and enshrined constitutional monarchy and Parliament's dominance in the Bill of Rights. Today England has a bicameral legislature and limited monarchy, with the prime minister as head of government and the monarch holding only ceremonial power.
This document provides an overview of major political, social, and economic transformations in Europe between 1450-1750. It discusses the Renaissance, the Protestant Reformation led by figures like Martin Luther, the resulting religious wars, and the rise of strong centralized monarchies in countries like France under Louis XIV. Constitutional governments also began emerging in places like England and the Netherlands as a result of conflicts between monarchs and parliaments over religion and political power.

Charles I became King of England in 1625 after the death of his father, James I. Charles believed in the divine right of kings and absolute monarchy, which put him in conflict with Parliament who believed the king's power should be limited. This led Charles to dissolve Parliament in 1629 and begin 11 years of personal rule without Parliament. In 1640, Charles was forced to recall Parliament due to financial problems, but tensions rose and the English Civil Wars broke out in 1642 between royalist and parliamentary forces. Charles was eventually captured and executed for treason in 1649 after the parliamentary forces emerged victorious, establishing England as a republic without a monarch.
