  • Congres Van Wenen Simulatie.Pdf
    Het Congres van Wenen Inleiding De Franse Revolutie en de daarop volgende Revolutionaire en Napoleontische oorlogen hebben heel Europa omgegooid. Landen werden geplitst, samengevoegd op geheel opgeheven. Vorstenfamilies werd afgezet, verhuisd of soms tot koning verheven. Heel Europa was in beweging. Na de zesde Coalitieoorlog tegen Napoleon werd de kleine korporaal eindelijk verslagen. Napoleon werd naar Elba verbannen en de rest van de Europese vorstenhuizen gingen naar Wenen. Het was het idee van de Oostenrijkse minister Metternich om vertegenwoordigers van alle in Wenen bijeen te roepen om verder te bepalen wat er met Europa moest gebeuren. Moesten de grenzen van vóór de revolutie hersteld worden? Moesten alle oude vorstenhuizen weer terug? Bleven nieuwe koninkrijkjes bestaan? Moest Frankrijk afgestraft en verkleind worden? Zijn er andere nieuwe gevaren die in de gaten gehouden moeten worden? Duizenden diplomaten trokken in 1814 naar Wenen. Het Congres van Wenen, zoals deze bijeenkomsten werden genoemd, duurde in totaal bijna een jaar. Een officieel begin was er niet, en eigenlijk kan je niet eens van een echt congres spreken, omdat er nooit een plenaire zitting heeft plaatsgevonden. De vier grote overwinnaars van de Napoleontische oorlogen (Rusland, Oostenrijk, Pruisen en Engeland) wilden de kaart van Europa het liefst met zijn vieren opnieuw indelen. Talleyrand wist Frankrijk bij dit rijtje van vier te voegen. Daarnaast waren er nog duizenden vorsten, vertegenwoordigers van landen, ex-landen, families, kloosterordes en onafhankelijke steden die probeerde hun doelstellingen te bereiken en van het Congres van Wenen te profiteren. Deze mensen moesten proberen op de agenda van de vijf grote landen te komen, want als zij je kwestie serieus namen, dan werden er pas besluiten genomen.

In the first skirmish, also known as the Battle of Burr Oak Grove, on 16 JUN, Illinois militia forces fought against a band of at least 80 Native Americans. During the battle three militia men under the command of Adam W. Snyder were killed in action. The second battle occurred nine days later when a larger Sauk and Fox band, under the command of Black Hawk, attacked Major John Dement's detachment and killed five militia men. The second battle is known for playing a role in Abraham Lincoln's short career in the Illinois militia. He was part of a relief company sent to the grove on 26 JUN and he helped bury the dead. He made a statement about the incident years later which was recollected in Carl Sandburg's writing, among others. Sources conflict about who actually won the battle; it has been called a "rout" for both sides. The battle was the last on Illinois soil during the Black Hawk War.
