 Metternich, Political Confession of Faith, 1820
Prince Klemens von Metternich was the chief minister of the Austrian Empire and the leading conservative statesman in European politics from 1815 to 1848.
He was the principal architect of the "Concert of Europe," the alliance of great powers that sought to maintain the the pillars of the old regime--monarchy, aristocracy, church, and privilege--against the forces of liberalism and nationalism.
As minister of a German-led multi-national empire, Metternich had reason to fear nationalism as much as liberalism (which in any case tended to go hand in hand in the first half of the nineteenth century).
