Abstract

The article analyzes the foreign policy activities of Napoleon III. In particular, examples of the use of the principle of nationalities by the French emperor are considered. Specific steps of assistance from France to the peoples of Moldova, Wallachia, Italy and Poland are described. It is concluded that the policy of Napoleon III was aimed primarily at pacifying Europe by creating independent, national states within their natural borders. The author believes that the full implementation of the plans of the French monarch would lead to the end of wars and the establishment of lasting peace in the European part of the world.
