Which ideology did metternich condemn
Vaselesa [24]
Metternich condemned both nationalism and liberalism as ideologies that threatened the status quo. 

Prince Klemens von Metternich of Austria was the leading figure in the conservative domination of the period from 1815 to 1848.  The Austrian Empire was made up of many different people groups, so nationalism was a threat to its existence.  If Hungarians and Czechs and other groups within that empire each wanted to form their own independent nation, that would have meant the end to the Austrian Empire.  And liberalism was the ideology of change that Metternich and others had seen threatening all of Europe through the ideas of the French Revolution.  19th century conservatives wanted to put down all such revolutionary change movements and keep the old order in place, with traditional, aristocratic institutions and values.

-BARSIC- [3]

Answer:

The correct answer is D. The missionary brothers who converted the Slavic peoples of Moravia to the Orthodox Christianity of the Byzantine Empire were Cyril and Methodius.

Explanation:

Cyril and Methodius were two brothers born in the 8th century in Thessaloniki who became missionaries of Christianity in the Khazars and Moravia. They promoted the use of the Old Church Slavonic as a liturgical language and developed the Glagolitic alphabet, the predecessor of the Cyrillic alphabet.

In fact, the nickname of Cyril was Constantinos, and he worked as a philologist and university teacher in Constantinople. The original name of Methodius has still not been found out, but he was a monk and at some point in his life also worked as an administrator.
