legitimacy

"The Congress of Vienna was a meeting hosted in 1814 by the Austrian

emperor, Francis I, to attempt to restore a balance of power throughout

Europe. The Congress planned to do this by returning France to its 1790

size and strengthening border nations. A balance of power meant that

no single nation would be strong enough to dominate a region. Another

goal of the Congress was to re-establish dynasties that had existed

before the French Revolution. This policy was called legitimacy."
