Holy Alliance : term originally for 19th century European alliance ostensibly formed for conserving religion, justice & peace, but used for repressing popular tendencies towards constitutional government. It was formed at Paris by Alexander I of Russia, Francis I of Austria, & Frederick William III of Prussia on 26 September 1815. Subsequently it was joined by all the sovereigns of Europe, except the Pope & the King of England. It ended after the 1830 revolution in France.
