Congress of Vienna
One of the concepts discussed at the Congress of Vienna was the Holy Alliance. The congress used the Holy Alliance as a way to suppress future rebellions in Europe. The countries in the Alliance would use the Principle of Intervention to help each other should a rebellion form. This was put in place as a response to the Haitian Revolution. This concept would have pleased Metternich greatly because it would help keep the monarchy in power. Metternich was a conservative, so he did not want the political system to change. The Holy Alliance helped stop many rebellions that arose after the Haitian Revolution and kept the monarchy in power in Europe longer.
