Detailed Solution

The given statement is true.
After the defeat of Napoleon Bonaparte in 1815, Europeans were inspired by the sense of conservatism. They believed in preserving traditional institutions of monarchy, the church, and social hierarchies like property and family. These establishments could only strengthen the state's power. However, the conservatives did not believe in the return to the pre-revolutionary society. They considered that modernisation could only support traditional organisations and preferred gradual development over quick change. Consequently, the Vienna Congress was convened in 1815 to restore the monarchy, an essential concept of conservatives. The Treaty of Vienna was also signed to undo all the changes in Europe during Napolean's reign.
