Louis XVIII.
The Congress in Vienna put Louis XVIII (18) on the French throne.
They used that premise in the post Napoleonic Wars to place Louis XVIII on the throne of France.
Yes. They installed Louis XVIII on the throne and reversed the republican system of France at the time.
nope. . .They allowed Napoleon to stay on the throne and go back to pre-conquest France.
The Congress of Vienna came about due to the European powers' territorial ambitions as well as Napoleon's final defeat at Waterloo. For the first reason, the congress intended on guaranteeing international tranquility to balance powers. The guiding principle in this congress was that no country should be powerful enough to destabilize international relations. For the second reason, something had to be done with France. There was no existing government in France. The Congress of Vienna then put Louis XVIII on the throne instead. These were the two major reasons for the Congress of Vienna.
Louis XVIII
King Louis XVIII was returned to the Throne of France.
The Bourbons.
After the Congress of Vienna (1814-15) the old royal family came back to power in France. The new king was Louis XVIII (life: 1755-1824, reign: 1814-1815, 1815-1824). He had to interrupt his reign for the not very succesful come-back of Napoleon as emperor (of which the end came at the Battle of Waterloo). After him, two Bourbon kings were to come: Charles X and Louis Philippe.
I'll answer your question, but with a small history lesson first: Napoleon had been sent to the Island of Elba as punishment for his misbehavior in France by the Congress of Vienna, who in turn restored the Monarchy with Louis XVIII as France's new king. On Elba, he was constantly watched and guarded by Austrian and French Guards. After somehow managing to sneak past them and gain passage to France, Paris welcomed him with open arms. He ascended to the throne after Louis XVIII fled to Belgium, and thusly the 100 days of his rule started. But there was internal conflict from the people of France and other countries around it, so eventually he was kicked out again and marked as an outlaw by the Congress of Vienna. :)
Yes he was he was actually. As well as the only. He was a threat to the Revolution as long as he was alive. His Regicide remained at the forefront of European thought and the Congress of Vienna placed the Bourbon's back on the Throne in 1815.
They wanted to restore the balance of power in Europe and put the Monarchy back on the French Throne.
