Conservatives pulling European nations apart!
France and Louis Philippethe "Citizen King"• In 1830, pressure from angry mobs of radicals forced King Charles X to abdicate!• Louis Philippe chosen as new King...favored bourgeoisie (uppermiddle class) and allowed wealthy to vote

Why was Belgium's revolt successful, but almost all the other ones a FAILURE?• Belgians were INSPIRED by France's 1830 revolution and wanted to separate from the Netherlands!• Poland? Territory given away in Congress of Vienna. They rebelled in 1830, but Russian forces CRUSHED their rebellion!
1830 Revolutions...
1848: REVOLUTION AGAIN in FRANCE!
• a recession hit, and people were frustrated with Louis Philippe (1789 again?)• February Days: protests made Louis Philippe abdicate• June Days: upper and middle class CRUSHED the working class! • Tension between the upper/middle class (bourgeoisie) and the working class!• 1852: Napoleon III takes over and attempts to bring back his uncle's structure and glory days!

ANGER here will LEAD to BITTERNESS as we approach 1914ESPECIALLY
towards Austria!
