Detailed Solution

The above statement is False.
Representatives of the European nations that had unitedly defeated Napoleon in 1815—Britain, Russia, Prussia, and Austria—met in Vienna to draft a settlement for Europe. Duke Metternich, the Austrian Chancellor, served as the Congress' host. The "Vienna Treaty" brought about the following changes:

The Bourbon dynasty, which had been overthrown during the French Revolution, was reinstated.

France regained control of the areas Napoleon had seized.

A number of states were established on the French borders in order to stop France from further expanding. Belgium and the Kingdom of the Netherlands rose in the north, while Genoa and Piedmont were positioned in the south.

On its western frontiers, Prussia also received some new regions in addition to Saxony. North Italian territory came under Austrian authority.

Poland came under Russian rule.

The correct statement would be that the Vienna Congress in 1815 was hosted by Metternich.
