re: #35 A hollow voice says: Abort SCOTUS
My problem is that the period of peace after the Congress of Vienna was a century long, and nobody lost imperial wars to achieve it. The EU peace (not altogether peaceful, but neither was the post-Congress period) has lasted less than that.
Of course there may be more to his argument than I’ve heard.
Uuh, the Congress of Vienna was a direct result of Napoleon losing an imperial war.
