By: Kelly Johanna Vargas García.
While XIX for America represented the beginning of the movement for independence and the formation of national states, in Europe this century was the national consolidation of imperialist domination and capitalist development. The Americas colonial independence created the need for Europe to seek new territories to colonize and dominate. At this time the idea is to study the historical development of Europe during the XIX century, so one can see how Europe was gradually reaching its development and importance by the domain they had on the African and Asian continents and how this race for occupation and territorial control will draw the line wars between different nations.

THE EUROPEAN RESTORATION
From: http://www.ask.com/wiki/European_Restoration
The Concert of Europe, also known as the Congress System after the Congress of Vienna, was the balance of power that existed in Europe between the end of the Napoleonic Wars (1815) until the outbreak of the First World War (1914), albeit with major alterations after the revolutions of 1848. Its founding powers were Austria, Prussia, Russian Empire and the United Kingdom, the members of the Quadruple Alliance responsible for the downfall of the First French Empire. In time France was established as a fifth member of the concert. At first, the leading personalities of the system were British foreign secretary Lord Castlereagh, Austrian chancellor Klemens von Metternich and Russian tsar Alexander I. The age of the Concert is sometimes known as the Age of Metternich, due to the influence of the Austrian chancellor's conservatism and the dominance of Austria within the German Confederation, or as the European Restoration, because of the reactionary efforts of the Congress of Vienna to restore Europe to its state before the French Revolution. The rise of nationalism, the unification of Germany and the Risorgimento in Italy, and the Eastern Question were among the factors which brought an end to the Concert's effectiveness. Congress system The Concert of Europe, as developed by Metternich, drew upon their ideas and the notion of a balance of power in international relations; that the ambitions of each Great Power was curbed by the others: The Concert of Europe, as it began to be called at the time, had... a reality in international law, which derived from the final Act of the Vienna Congress, which stipulated that the boundaries established in 1815 could not be altered without the consent of its eight signatories.
From the outbreak of the French Revolutionary Wars in 1792 to the exile of Napoleon I to Saint Helena in 1815, Europe had been almost constantly at war. During this time, the military conquests of France had resulted in the spread of liberalism throughout much of the continent, resulting in many states adopting the Napoleonic code. Largely as a reaction to the radicalism of the French Revolution, the victorious powers of the Napoleonic Wars resolved to suppress liberalism and nationalism, and revert largely to the status quo of Europe prior to 1789. The Kingdom of Prussia, Austrian Empire and Russian Empire formed the Holy Alliance with the expressed intent of preserving Christian social values and traditional monarchism. Every member of the coalition promptly joined the Alliance, save for the United Kingdom. The congress of Vienna The Congress of Vienna was an international conference that was called in order to remake Europe after the downfall of Napoleon I. Many territorial decisions had to be made in the conference that was held in Vienna, Austria, from September 1814 to June 1815. The main goal of the conference was to create a balance of power that would preserve the peace. The goal of the congress was to reestablish a balance of power amongst the countries of Europe and have peace between the nations. The Congress was highly successful in achieving its goal, for the peace in Europe was left undisturbed for almost 40 years.

BOURGEOIS REVOLUTIONS.
The Liberal Revolution of 1820 From: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Liberal_Revolution_of_1820
Was a political revolution that erupted in 1820 and lasted until 1826, It was unchained via a military insurrection in the city of Porto, in northern Portugal, that quickly and peacefully spread to the rest of the country. From 1807 to 1811 Napoleonic French forces invaded Portugal three times. As a result, the Portuguese royal family was transferred to the Portuguese colony of Brazil, where it remained until 1821. From Brazil, the Portuguese king João VI ruled his trans-Atlantic empire for thirteen years. Following the defeat of the French forces in 1814, Portugal experienced a prolonged period of political turmoil, in which many sought greater self-rule for the Portuguese people. Eventually this unrest put an end to the king's long stay in Brazil, when his return to Portugal was demanded by the revolutionaries. The 1820 Liberal Revolution initiated a constitutional period in which the 1822 Constitution was ratified and implemented. The movement's liberal ideas had an important influence on Portuguese society and political organization in the nineteenth century (XIX).

The liberal revolution of 1830 From: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/July_Revolution
The French Revolution of 1830, also known as the July Revolution or Trois Glorieuses in French, saw the overthrow of King Charles X of France, the French Bourbon monarch, and the ascent of his cousin Louis-Philippe, the Duc d'Orléans, who himself, after 18 precarious years on the throne, would in turn be overthrown. It marked the shift from one constitutional monarchy, the Bourbon Restoration, to another, the July Monarchy; the transition of power from the House of Bourbon to its cadet branch, the House of Orléans; and the substitution of the principle of popular sovereignty for hereditary right. Supporters of the Bourbon would be called Legitimists, and supporters of Louis Philippe Orleanists. The liberal revolutions of 1848. From: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Revolutions_of_1848
The European Revolutions of 1848, known in some countries as the Spring of Nations, Spring time of the Peoples or the Year of Revolution, were a series of political upheavals throughout Europe. Described by some historians as a revolutionary wave, the period of unrest began in France and then, further propelled by the French Revolution of 1848, soon spread to the rest of Europe. Although most of the revolutions were quickly put down, there was a significant amount of violence in many areas, with tens of thousands of people tortured and/or killed. While the immediate political effects of the revolutions were largely reversed, the long-term reverberations of the events were far-reaching. Consequences of the Bourguesoie revolutions

¿CÓMO SE FORMARON LAS NUEVAS NACIONES EUROPEAS?
Tomado de: Contextos Sociales 8. Editorial Santillana. Bogotá- Colombia. 2004. P. 124- 131
La revolución de 1848 se expandió rápidamente por toda Europa. Esta nueva ola revolucionaria fue el resultado del liberalismo, el nacionalismo y de la activa participación del pueblo en los acontecimientos políticos. Esta revolución también fue una consecuencia de los profundos cambios económicos que ocasionó la revolución industrial, tales como la gran inmigración de trabajadores a las ciudades, la industrialización y la aparición de nuevas clases sociales. Así mismo esta revolución fortaleció a la burguesía, la cual logró consolidar su papel político, remplazando al viejo orden monárquico. La burguesía buscaba fundar estados sobre una base nacional, así como también la conquista de mayores libertades. Las principales consecuencias políticas se vieron en los siguientes países: Austria, Italia, Alemania, Europa oriental etc.
ITALIA.
Guerra nacionalista contra los
austriacos.
- Se configura un reino con
una monarquía
constitucional.
- Hasta 1870, la situación fue
complicada porque quedaron
reductos de diversas fuerzas
políticas en cada uno de los
antiguos reinos, y ponerlos de
acuerdo no era tan fácil. La
unificación económica fue
lenta y freno
considerablemente la
industrialización.
ALEMANIA.
Alemania dividida en dos reinos: Austria
y Prusia.
- La unificación alemana se inició
en 1861, con el ascenso al trono
del káiser Guillermo I, quien
nombro canciller a Otto Von
Bismarck.
- Luego de guerras y alianzas, se
aisló a Austria y se consolidó la
Confederación de Alemania del
Norte.
- Tuvo un carácter federalista,
puesto que sus miembros
conservaban su propia
administración, pero el gobierno
federal manejaba la políti.ca
internacional y el ejército
Europa oriental:
1. Imperio Austro- Húngaro: compuesto por gran cantidad de nacionalidades (checos,
eslavos, húngaros, y polacos).
2. Países balcánicos: zona bajo dominio turco y austriaco, y donde las potencias del
momento tenían intereses.
3. Imperio ruso: No había iniciado su proceso de industrialización.
A pesar del autoritarismo de los zares, se formaron reductos liberales especialmente en
las filas del ejército.
Economía de carácter agrario y muy arraigado a las costumbres feudales.
Consolidó su expansión territorial, hacia la región del mar caspio.

SITUACIÓN POLÍTICA DE EUROPA OCCIDENTAL La formación de las nuevas naciones, así como los efectos de la expansión de la segunda revolución industrial, cambió radicalmente la situación política europea a partir de la década de 1870. Mientras esto ocurría, otras naciones consolidaban sus sistemas democráticos y se ubicaban como las potencias europeas. Este fue el caso de Inglaterra y Francia. La Inglaterra victoriana Mientras la mayor parte de Europa pasaba por un sinnúmero de revoluciones, en Inglaterra la situación era estable políticamente. Entre otras razones, esto se debió a que el trono fue ocupado por una sola persona durante casi todo el siglo XIX. Se trataba de la reina Victoria. Como consecuencia de la democratización y la revolución industrial, que convirtieron a Inglaterra en una monarquía constitucional, la reina tuvo que renunciar a algunos de sus privilegios reales. Debido a ello, el poder estuvo realmente, en manos del primer ministro de turno. La fuerte democracia y los valores típicos de la Inglaterra victoriana, se basaron en muy buena medida en el liberalismo. Esta doctrina sustentó con éxito el gran desarrollo económico que se vivió en la segunda parte del siglo. La revolución industrial en su segunda etapa generó un nuevo capitalismo: el financiero. Este era el dinero que estaba a disposición de los bancos y era utilizado por los industriales para nuevas inversiones. Francia: la democracia de la tercera república. La guerra de 1870 entre Francia y Prusia, por Alsacia y Lorena, termino con la abdicación de Napoleón III, acontecimiento que implicó el final del segundo imperio francés y el comienzo de la tercera república francesa. Entonces la Asamblea Nacional, debió encargarse de reorganizar el país. Para tal efecto fue elegido presidente Adolfo Thiers. A partir de 1879, Francia fue dirigida por el primer ministro Jules Ferry, quien consolido los principios republicanos que introdujeron al país en su edad de oro. Ferry decreto la libertad de prensa, reformo la administración y la educación, fomento la industria y las comunicaciones e introdujo al país en una ambiciosa expansión comercial.

EUROPEAN ECONOMY DURING THE SECOND HALF OF THE XIX CENTURY.
What is an economic system? From: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Economic_system
An economic system is the structure of production, allocation of economic inputs, distribution of economic outputs, and consumption of goods and services in an economy. It is a set of institutions and their social relations.
An economic system is composed of people and institutions, including their relationships to productive resources, such as through the convention of property. Examples of contemporary economic systems include capitalist systems, socialist systems, and mixed economies. "Economic systems" is the economics category that includes the study of respective systems. Today the world largely operates under a global economic system based on the capitalist mode of production. Our current economic system is called capitalism. Capitalism From: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Capitalism
An economic system in which the means of production and distribution are privately or corporately owned and development is proportionate to the accumulation and reinvestment of profits gained in a free market. The earliest forms of capitalism—which we call "mercantilism"—originate in Rome, the Middle East, and the early middle Ages. Mercantilism might be roughly defined as the distribution of goods in order to realize a profit. Goods are bought at one site for a certain price and moved to another site and sold at a higher price. As the Roman Empire expanded, mercantilism correspondingly expanded. But the contraction of the Roman Empire from the fifth century onwards also contracted mercantilism until, by the 700's, it was not a substantial aspect of European culture, that is, European economies tended to localize. Arabic cultures, on the other hand, had a long history of mercantilism, living as they did on the trade routes between three great empires: Egypt, Persia, and later Byzantium. As Islam from the seventh century A.D. onwards spread like wildfire across Northern Africa, Spain, the Middle East and Asia, Arabic mercantilism assumed an unprecedented global character. The medieval Europeans essentially learned mercantilism from their Islamic neighbors, evidenced in large part by the number of economic terms in European languages that are derived from Arabic, such as tariff and traffic. From the 1300's, Europeans would begin expanding their mercantile practices, resulting in a social mobility hitherto unseen in European culture as well as pushing Europeans, as it did the Muslims, to explore distant parts of the globe. The voyages of discovery were entirely driven by mercantile ambitions.
As time went on in Europe, mercantilism gradually evolved into economic practices that would eventually be
called capitalism. Capitalism is based on the same principle as mercantilism: the large-scale realization of a profit by acquiring goods for lower prices than one sells them. But capitalism as a practice is characterized by the following:

Socialism From: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Socialism Socialism is an economic and political theory advocating public or common ownership and cooperative management of the means of production and allocation of resources. A socialist society is organized on the basis of relatively equal power-relations, self-management, dispersed decision-making and a reduction or elimination of hierarchical and bureaucratic forms of administration and governance; the extent of which varies in different types of socialism. This ranges from the establishment of cooperative management structures to the abolition of all hierarchical structures in favor of free association. As an economic system, socialism is the direct allocation of capital goods (means of production) to meet economic demands so that production is oriented toward use and accounting is based on some physical magnitude, such as calculation-in-kind, or a direct measure of labor time. Goods and services for consumption are distributed through markets, and distribution of income is based on individual merit/individual contribution.
As a political movement, socialism includes a diverse array of political philosophies, ranging from reformism to revolutionary socialism. Some currents of socialism, often referred to as state socialism, advocate complete nationalization of the means of production, distribution and exchange as a strategy for implementing socialism; while social democrats advocate public control of capital within the framework of a market economy. Libertarian socialists and anarchists reject using the state to build socialism, arguing that
CAPITALISM
WHAT IS IT?
An economic system in which the means of production and distribution are
privately or corporately owned and development is proportionate to the
accumulation and reinvestment of profits gained in a free market.
WHAT ARE ITS CHARACTERISTICS?
1. Private ownership of the means of production.
2. Market controls economy throughout law of supply and demand.
3. Maximization of resources.
4. State control over the private sector is minimal.
HOW IT DOES?
Capitalism needs productive factors. And it has
three main factors…
Factories, work, and capital

socialism will, and must, arise spontaneously. They advocate direct worker-ownership of the means of production alternatively through independent syndicates, workplace democracies, or worker cooperatives. Modern socialism originated from an 18th-century intellectual and working class political movement that criticized the effects of industrialization and private property on society. Utopian socialists such as Robert Owen (1771–1858), tried to found self-sustaining communes by secession from a capitalist society. Henri de Saint Simon (1760–1825), who coined the term socialism, advocated technocracy and industrial planning.
[9]
Saint-Simon, Friedrich Engels and Karl Marx advocated the creation of a society that allows for the widespread application of modern technology to rationalize economic activity by eliminating the anarchy of capitalist production that results in instability and cyclical crises of overproduction. Communism From: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Communism Communism is a sociopolitical movement that aims for a classless and stateless society structured upon common ownership of the means of production, free access to articles of consumption, and the end of wage labor and private property in the means of production and real estate.
In Marxist theory, communism is a specific stage of historical development that inevitably emerges from the development of the productive forces that leads to a superabundance of material wealth, allowing for distribution based on need and social relations based on freely-associated individuals.
The exact definition of communism varies, and it is often mistakenly used interchangeably with socialism; however, Marxist theory contends that socialism is just a transitional stage on the way to communism. Leninists revised this theory by introducing the notion of a vanguard party to lead the proletarian revolution and to hold all political power after the revolution in a transitional stage between capitalism and socialism. Some communists, such as council communists and non-Marxist libertarian communists and anarchy-communists, oppose the idea of a vanguard party and transition stage and advocate for the construction of full communism to begin immediately upon the abolition of capitalism.

IMPERIALISM, 19TH-CENTURY EUROPEAN
From: http://encyclopedia.farlex.com/imperialism,+19th-century+European
The empires of Europe, including those of the UK, France, Italy, the Netherlands, Germany, Belgium, Portugal, Spain, and Russia, reached their greatest extent in the 19th century. Although partly a continuation of the expansionist policies of previous centuries, these nations increased their efforts to extend their power and influence across the globe. At various times during the 19th century Europeans held control over the continents of South America, Africa, Asia, and Australasia. European imperialism was driven by a combination of factors, from a desire for territorial strength, economic opportunities, and political prestige, to the need for cheap supplies to fuel Europe's industrial revolutions. Also significant was the Europeans' sense of duty to Christianize and ‘civilize’ other nations through mission work and the enforcement of European culture and administrative methods.
The form of dominance varied. While King Leopold II of Belgium held the Belgian Congo (now the Democratic Republic of Congo) as a vast personal property, Queen Victoria was declared empress of India by the British government in 1876.

Motivations
The imperialist policies of European nations in the 19th century were not driven simply by a desire to be powerful and hold land, but by a combination of a wide range of forces. The industrial revolutions that swept across Europe in the 18th and 19th centuries were a major factor in the acceleration of European imperialism. Industries such as the production of cotton cloth required vast quantities of imported raw materials that could not be grown or produced in Europe. Cotton was grown in India, and the need for a cheap supply contributed to the spread of British interest and control in the region.
The opportunity to increase trading opportunities also motivated imperialist ambitions in the 19th century. European nations sought to open up new trade routes that gave them places to sell their goods. In the 19th century, however, the hunt for new markets speeded up as the mass-manufacture of new goods in the industrial revolution increased the amount of trade taking place. 1. 1.
Political considerations also played a major part in motivating European imperialism in the 19th century. The idea of imperial glory reflecting on a government was a clear motivating factor for European imperialism in the 19th century.
Justification and motivation for imperialism also came from the belief that the Christian religion and European forms of government, education, and law would improve the lives of the indigenous peoples of Africa, Asia, and Australasia, and that it was, therefore, a duty to spread European civilization.
From the 1700´s through the early 1900´s,
European nations began to build empires
around the world.
European nations competed with each other to
gain the most territory. This brought great gain

Congress of Berlin. From: http://www.britannica.com/EBchecked/topic/62090/Congress-of-Berlin
Was a diplomatic meeting of the major European powers at which the Treaty of Berlin replaced the Treaty of San Stefano, which had been signed by Russia and Turkey (March 3, 1878) at the conclusion of the Russo-Turkish War of 1877–78. Officially convoked by the Austrian foreign minister, Count Gyula Andrassy, the congress met in Berlin on June 13. Dominated by the German chancellor Otto von Bismarck, the congress solved an international crisis caused by the San Stefano treaty by revising the peace settlement to satisfy the interests of Great Britain (by denying Russia the means to extend its naval power and by maintaining the Ottoman Empire as a European power) and to satisfy the interests of Austria-Hungary (by allowing it to occupy Bosnia and Herzegovina and thereby increase its influence in the Balkans). In acting so, however, the congress left Russia humiliated by substantially reducing the gains that it had made under the San Stefano treaty. Furthermore, the congress failed to consider adequately the aspirations of the Balkan peoples themselves and, thereby, laid the foundation for future crises in the Balkans. The partition of Africa
European imperial involvement in Africa in the modern period began in the 15th century, when the Portuguese sent expeditions along the west coast of the continent. The Portuguese founded the colony of Angola in 1491 and Mozambique in 1505. Before the 19th century, the main impact of European involvement in Africa was the creation of a new slave trade to the Americas.
In the 19th century control by European powers spread rapidly over the continent. This advance occurred mainly after 1875. The UK took official control of Sierra Leone in 1808, South Africa in 1814 (see South Africa: history to 1902), Nigeria in 1885, Uganda in 1894, and Kenya in 1895. France's empire in Africa by 1900 included Algeria, Tunisia (from 1883), Madagascar (from 1885), Mali (1895), Chad (1900), and the Côte d'Ivoire (Ivory Coast; made part of French West Africa in 1901). Italy controlled Somalia (from 1889) and Libya (conquered 1911), Portugal held Angola and Mozambique, and Germany controlled Namibia (from 1884), Cameroon (from 1884), and Tanzania (from 1885). Belgium held the Belgian Congo, a vast area in Central Africa that became the personal property of King Leopold II in 1885. By 1900 most of Africa was controlled by the empires of Europe; only Ethiopia and Liberia remained free, although Ethiopia had to fend off an Italian invasion in 1896.
The partition of Asia
European imperialism was also effective in gaining control of the nations of Southeast Asia in the 19th century. The British had taken complete possession of Burma (now Myanmar) by 1886 and the Malay Peninsula. France took control of Cambodia in 1863, Annam and Vietnam in 1884, and Laos in 1893, the four territories forming French Indochina. All these areas were governed by Europeans and exposed to Christian missionaries. European traders exploited the region's raw materials and also traded with the local populations, offering them manufactured goods previously unavailable. Roads and railways were also introduced by the Europeans to their colonies.
