Answer: The Soviet Union developed its own atomic bomb.

Detail:

The Soviet Union had conducted espionage concerning the United States' "Manhattan Project," which was the US government's development of atomic bombs during World War II. The US tested its first atomic bomb in July, 1945, and then used two such bombs to force Japan to surrender in August, 1945.

The USA would not share its nuclear weapons technology with the USSR, even though the two nations were allies during World War II. But by 1949, the the Soviet Union had developed and tested its own atomic bomb. From that point on, an arms race truly began between the two superpowers.

What was the group called that met after Napoleon's defeat and what did they want to do for Europe?

Andrews [41]

Answers:

The Congress of Vienna
They wanted to restore peace and stability in Europe

Explanation:

The Congress of Vienna was a gathering of leaders from the European nations that had defeated France and Napoleon -- and France was allowed representation also. (The French Minister of Foreign Affairs, Charles Maurice de Talleyrand-Périgord, had a role there. )

The delegates of the Congress of Vienna were interested in creating a balance of power in European politics. They did not want one nation to become too powerful again and press beyond its borders as France had done under Napoleon. The Congress of Vienna emphasized also the principal of "legitimacy" -- trying to put rulers in power that they thought to be the legitimate rulers of nations. (So, for instance, the Bourbon monarchy was restored in France.) They sought to prevent revolutions and unrest from breaking out again ... but it would only be a couple decades before further revolutions did occur.
