To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
That Holy Alliance itself was a personal association, in which all European sovereigns except the Pope and the Sultan were invited to join, and in which all those invited, except the King of Great Britain, did actually join ; and it was of an entirely general and religious character. The Quintuple Alliance was a diplomatic instrument of the ordinary type in which the religious phrases were purely incidental, and to which only " the Five Great Powers " were parties. In 1820, when Portugal, Spain..., and Naples were in constitutional struggles, and it was proposed that the Allied Great Powers should intervene, at least in Spain, Great Britain and France refused to join in common action ; and it was only the three Eastern, or as Metternich called them, the three " free " Powers, which agreed at Troppau to carry out "the Concert of Europe. " The reason for the refusal of the two "limited" monarchies was that such intervention in purely domestic disputes was not required by the treaties on which the intervention was professedly based, and was in itself undesirable, and that the Alliance was tending to become an alliance of " Kings " against " Peoples." Thus, to British observers in general, the original object of the Holy Alliance was obscured by its later developments, in which the vague and general religious aspirations of the original document were overlaid by practical and monarchical considerations.
