1 Liberals and Nationalist Unleashed Across Europe. p. 144

2 Why European Revolts? Napoleon never met Socrates or John Locke, but he knew their work. Though Napoleon was defeated, he’d changed many Europeans. –Many wanted republican-style governments –The middle class wanted power to create governments that supported their businesses and banks. –Many ethnic groups wanted their independence –Many large nations celebrated and pushed their pride on their people and other nations.

3 Ideology: Systems of political belief or thinking. Liberalism—desire to improve society and government by helping the most people through the power of the government. Government would protect the rights of the people and work to better their socio-economic conditions.

4 Universal manhood suffrage: eventually, liberals would want all men to have the right to vote, whether they owned property or not. –Early liberal demands were that men who owned land should have suffrage.

5 Autonomy: the right of a people to have their own land and government. EC: European nationalist autonomy movements, early-mid 1800s: (4) –In the Austrian Empire Italians Hungarians –In the Ottoman Empire (Turkey) Greeks Serbians

6 Monarchies support the Congress of Vienna EC: Led by Metternich, Britain, France, Austria, Russia work together to crush nationalist and liberal revolts in….. (2) Spain The Italian states

7 Rebellions and Repression p. 148

8 liberals and nationalists. 1830 to1850 Radicals: political people wanting extreme change. They opposed the efforts of the monarchic governments –They were not afraid of the Concert of Europe’s forces and were willing to fight them. –They violently rebelled in France and other nations.

9 Louis Philippe: replaced Charles X as king of France, with support of French liberals. –He lived up to his nickname, the “citizen king”, by dressing and acting like the bourgeoisie meeting people on the street.

10 Initial Progress EC: Louis Philippe’s rule saw liberal progress: (4) –Profitable economy –Extended suffrage –More middle class privileges –Down-side: lower classes saw little change.

11 Recession: An economic slowdown, –Producers and consumers slow or stop spending –Factories reduce production or shut down –Workers lose jobs France was hit by one in the late 1840s, causing the French public to lose faith in Louis Philippe’s government.

12 EC Other issues upset French people about Louis Philippe’s rule. (4) Government corruption Poor harvests High food prices Government attempts to silence criticism

13 Napoleon III: First elected president Soon, Louis Napoleon took total control of the government and made himself ‘emperor’. –He renamed himself “Napoleon III” He did it legally with a plebiscite (entire country voted yes/no).

17 Standards Check, p. 145 What was the goal of the conservatives in the Concert of France? To restore the political and social order that existed before the French Revolution

18 Standards Check, p. 146 How did the liberalism of the early 1800s reflect Enlightenment ideals? Liberals supported Enlightenment ideals such as natural rights, the separation of powers, and a government that is responsible to its people.

19 Image, p. 146 Question: A. Those who died in the battles became martyrs, and survivors joined against an enemy who had killed Serbs B. This sense of nationalism united Serbs and fueled further struggles

20 Standards Check, p. 147 Why would a monarch order his army to suppress an uprising in another country? To prevent the uprisings and revolutionary ideas from spreading

21 Primary Source, p. 149 How does Hugo describe the barricades in his famous novel Les Miserables? As a chaotic mass of whatever the desperate rebels could drag to the site to defend against the government soldiers.

22 Standards Check, p. 149 What actions did Charles X take in 1830, and how did French rebels respond? After Charles X disbanded the legislature and limited the press, the rebels put up barricades, fired at soldiers, and gained control of Paris.

23 Standards Check, p. 150 How did Belgian and Polish revolutions in 1830 end differently? The Belgians gained independence from Holland, but the Polish rebellion was crushed by Russia.

24 EC: What did he mean? What did Austrian leader, Klemens von Metternich, mean when he said, “When France sneezes all Europe catches a cold” That French liberal rebellions caused revolts in other European nations.

25 Thinking Critically, p 150-1 1 How were the “February days” and the “June days” similar and different?
