When Rome dominated the universe, the only beings left across the borders of its vast empire were more or less barbarous tribes, with whom she was ever at war, or whose chiefs were her simple vassals. It was in the Middle Ages, at that troubled period when countless races of diverse origins came 19 ESSAYS AND ADDRESSES into contact and conflict with each other in Western Europe, that an influence born of a common faith, the influence of Christianity, awoke these tribes to the consciousness that... there existed between them some bond of society. Then was formed what be- came known as Christendom; and the Crusaders themselves were but the expression of a general sen- timent which animated all Christian nations. Little by little, order emerged from chaos. All the scattered elements crystallized, so to speak, into a certain number of nations which assumed the lead- ership of humanity. These nations themselves soon vied with one another for supremacy ; the spirit of rivalry which gained ground in the fifteenth cen- tury, and the conflicts which arose in the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries, between the House of France and the House of Austria, showed that it was necessary, for the peace of the world, to estab- lish equilibrium between the Powers of Europe.
