The European balance of power was greatly shifted by the rise of nation-states and the decline of empires, particularly following the Napoleonic Wars. The Congress of Vienna in 1815 established a framework aimed at maintaining stability through a balance among the major powers. Additionally, the unification of Germany and Italy in the late 19th century reconfigured alliances and rivalries, exacerbating tensions that would eventually lead to World War I. These changes in territorial and political dynamics fundamentally altered the landscape of European power relations.
