London Conference (1840)

In the London Conference ( 1840 ) Great Britain , Austria and Prussia demanded the separation of parts of the Ottoman Empire . The French were not participants, believed they were ignored and national emotions were therefore stoked in France . Memories of the humiliations of 1815 after the Napoleonic Wars broke out and culminated in claims for the area up to the entire left bank of the Rhine for the Grande Nation (→  Rhine crisis ).
