Palmer Chapter 10 1 Napoleonic Europe X. Napoleonic Europe pp. 417-452 The impact of France under Napoleon on Europe was based on military subjugation. Some peoples worked with Napoleon to gain changes; in other cases, resistance to Napoleon was the factor that brought change. The period from 1792-1814 was not a world war, but a series of short, sharp, distinct episodes; only Great Britain remained at war for the full period, and only in 1813 was there full cooperation in the field against Napoleon. The period is complicated by the continuation of past stories: Britain?s economic growth, Russian pressure on Poland and Turkey, Prussia?s push for German leadership, and Austrian dreams of territorial expansion.

Nicholas Natale As World War I came to an end, a generation had been lost throughout the world. In order for this atrocity to never happen again, President Woodrow Wilson created the Fourteen Points. He hoped it would be ?the war to end all wars.? Although the Treaty of Versailles incorporated many of his ideas, the President could not have the treaty ratified by Congress because of the Fourteenth Point. The League of Nations, which was to be an international organization for collective security, was Wilson?s dream. Although the liberal and conservative opposition forces challenged the League of Nations, it was President Wilson?s stubbornness that led to the total defeat of the Treaty of Versailles.
