    Study Notes

    Nationalist Sentiment before the 19th Century

    • The Renaissance (14th-17th centuries) and the Enlightenment (17th-18th centuries) fostered a sense of national identity and pride in Europe.
    • The Protestant Reformation (16th century) contributed to the growth of nationalist sentiment by challenging the authority of the Catholic Church and promoting local languages and cultures.

    Impact of the Protestant Revolution

    • The Protestant Revolution led to the fragmentation of Europe, with different regions and nations adopting different forms of Christianity.
    • It also led to the rise of secularism, as the power of the Catholic Church declined, and the emergence of nation-states.

    Role of Trade and Colonies

    • The growth of trade and colonies helped to create a sense of national identity and competition among European nations.
    • Colonies provided nations with new resources, markets, and opportunities for expansion, which in turn fueled nationalist sentiment.

    Post-Napoleonic Era

    • The period immediately following the Napoleonic era (1815-1848) was marked by a surge in nationalist movements and revolutions across Europe.
    • This era saw the rise of liberalism and the demand for democratic reforms and national independence.

    Treaty of Vienna

    • The objective of the Treaty of Vienna in 1815 was to establish a balance of power in Europe and prevent future French aggression.
    • The treaty also sought to restore the pre-Napoleonic political order, with a system of monarchy and aristocracy, and to suppress liberal and nationalist movements.
