Duke Mettermich said, "when France sneezes, the rest of Europe catches a cold."
As conservative administrations sought to secure power, liberalism and nationalism became increasingly connected with the revolution in many parts of Europe, including Italy and Germany, the provinces of the Ottoman Empire, Ireland, and Poland. Liberal nationalists from the educated middle-class elite, including professors, schoolteachers, clerks, and members of the commercial middle-class, led these revolutions. In July 1830, France saw its first revolution. Bourbon kings reclaimed power during the conservative era after 1815. Reactionaries were overthrown by liberal revolutionaries, who established a constitutional monarchy governed by Louis Philippe as the head. 'When France sneezes, the rest of Europe catches a cold,' Metternich commented. The July Revolution sparked an insurgency in Brussels, resulting in Belgium seceding from the United Kingdom of the Netherlands.
