Napoleon was defeated by the combined army of England, Prussia and Austria, after which the kings decided, in the so-called Congress of Vienna , restore the Old Regime, with the same dynasties that had been on the thrones, and curb in line with liberal ideas. The absolutist monarchies managed to return to power three times: after defeating Napoleon and after the revolutions of 1820 and 1830. But, like the previous ones, they were dominated by force and did not succeed. In all these changes, the great winner is the bourgeoisie, for its influence in the different regimes, and the consolidation of the free market.
