Metternich

By the end of 1848 it was evident that Metternich’s ideology was becoming less

prominent and the achievements of the Congress of Vienna were being reversed.


Support and popularity for Klemens von Metternich’s conservative thoughts had

rapidly begun to decline in the eye of the public. The world around him was changing,

his believed perfect ideals such as the second Monarchy, his autocratic mentality and

destroying the middle class were discarded and ignored for new ideals such as

Nationalism and Liberalism. The Conservatives no longer had the enormous amount of

power that they previously possessed. Nationalism and Liberalism were beginning to

take over the political spectrum. The prospect of a Revolution was not appealing to

Metternich. He was one who thrived on stability and used the Congress of Vienna and

the Concert of Europe to help maintain the balance of power in Europe. However, with

talk of revolution and people’s thirst for equality, knowledge, freedom, and change his

ideals of monarchies and an autocracy were short lived. Metternich was seen as a

repressive figure in Austria and a series of small unsuccessful revolutions broke out. His

resignation on March 13th was celebrated by the people and he fled to England with his

wife.

Revolutionary Road
Your Eye on the Revolution

Hello France, Katerine Riché here with breaking news on the revolution. I’m live reporting to you from the castle of the Royal Family. A new development on leader of the Jacobins, none other than Robespierre. We have just received word that our favourite revolutionary has begun to take control of the New Republic of-you guessed it- France. We the people are excited to say the least. It’s about time that we see justice for the past four years of crimes against innocent people. The King, Queen and Royal Family have been reported attempting to flee the Country. No word yet on how Robespierre is taking this. But I think we can all assume he’s might offended. Here’s hoping he decides to have them arrested. We do know that the Jacobins hate to be disrespected, I think it’s safe to say we can hope for much more than an arrest. After all, it’s only fair.

The inspiration that Robespierre and the Jacobins have instilled in us, the people of France, is sweeping across our beautiful country in a frenzy. It seems as though everyone-well, everyone who matters-is praying for the execution of the Royal Family, that means the King too. After all, they did break the law and rules are rules and we all know what happens to law breakers. We the people are enacting justice through Robespierre and the courageous Jacobins. We want justice for how we were treated these past four years. Our people were slaughtered in the streets. We demand justice for the fallen ones who died fighting for our cause and justice will be served when the heads of the Royal Family roll across the ground of our bloodied streets.

Oh, this just in, it appears that our desires are about to be satisfied. It’s official, the Royal Family has been scheduled for execution, no word on how they’re taking the news. Let’s hope they’re feeling some regret and remorse for their actions, not that it will help anything. We’ll be back with more of these gruesome details after a quick break. Don’t change you dare change that channel and make sure you stay tuned for more updates on the revolution. Once again, this is Katerine Riché signing off for now and this has been Revolutionary Road: Your Eye on the Revolution. Thanks for watching.
