After Napoleon's defeat in 1815, the Congress of Vienna restored the pre-Napoleonic order in Europe, leading to the establishment of several states in Italy. The Austrian Empire gained significant control over northern Italy, including Lombardy and Venetia, while the Kingdom of Sardinia, encompassing parts of northwestern Italy, was also strengthened. The Papal States remained under the Pope's authority, and various smaller states existed in central and southern Italy, reflecting a fragmented political landscape until the unification movements later in the 19th century.
