Annotation:

Of all the centuries of world history that preceded the XX century, the XIX century occupies an exceptional place. It was in the nineteenth century that the development of economics and technology, exact science and fiction, music and fine arts went at such a rapid, unheard-of pace, the change of political forms took place so abruptly, revolutions and wars that changed the face of all state life and all international relations on the European continent, and sometimes the contours of borders, were so frequent like never before. In the book we find special chapters devoted to the history of such countries: Switzerland, Sweden, Norway, Holland, Denmark, Belgium, Austria, Spain, the Romance countries of South and Central America, Hindustan, Persia, Afghanistan, Turkey, China, Japan, Korea, dominions and the most significant colonies of European countries, such as Australia, Canada, India, South Africa, Egypt, Indo-China, Algeria, etc. The history of all these countries is presented briefly, but accurately and very informative. The book gives the reader a lively, coherent, literarily executed exposition of the entire vast mass of the most complex political events of the nineteenth century in all European countries, but also a very informative, for all its brevity, characteristic of such phenomena of world culture as literature, music, painting, sculpture, architecture, and the development of scientific knowledge. The book presents appendices: chronological tables, nominal and material indicators about Important Persons and events, bibliography. Also in the book there is a map of "Europe by the beginning of the nineteenth century."
