To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:

" The Swiss Cantons had requested Napoleon to give them a constitution, which was adapted to the pecu- liarity of their country and to the spirit of liberalism. 76 THE SINS OF Napoleon gave the " Mediations-acte " of 1803, under which Switzerland in the midst of a stormy world, en- joyed eleven years of peace and prosperity. When the Austrian army under Bubna returned from France, and stayed in the neighbourhood of Bale, Switzerland was commanded to abolish the " Mediations-acte, " and to accep...t a constitution, which was created under the influence of the Russian Ambassador Capodistrias and the Austrian Lebzeltern. Some Cantons refused to obey; but the menaces of the " Holy Alliance, " sup- ported by the army which entered the Swiss territory, soon compelled them to accept a constitution which was a continual source of all the internal struggles which troubled Switzerland up to 1848, in which year the Swiss succeeded in altering that constitution in spite of the threatenings of Austria, Prussia, and Russia.
