The most important outcome of the Congress was that it settled all outstanding political and territorial questions to the satisfaction of the Great Powers (Russia, Prussia, Austria, UK, France). The objective of the Congress was to provide a long-term peace plan for Europe by settling critical issues arising from the French Revolutionary Wars and the Napoleonic Wars. The Congress of Vienna of 1814 was the closest the European countries came to World Order since the time of Charlemagne’s empire. Two questions can be raised about the Congress of Vienna: What Consensus did it produce? What events weakened the subtle equilibrium of the Congress of Vienna? One of such “world order” is the European balance of power system as the outcome of the Congress of Vienna. Each considered itself the center of the world, and envisioned its distinct principles as universally relevant. For most of history, civilizations defined their own concepts of order. There has never been a true "world order," Kissinger observes in his seminal book “World Order”. Group 2: Budhi Prihantoro, Chery Sidharta, Dewi Kartonegoro, Nuradi Noeri
