1828 CE to 1839 CE

In foreign policy, Nicholas I acts as the protector of ruling legitimism and as the guardian against revolution.

His offers to suppress revolution on the European continent, accepted in some instances, earn him the label of "gendarme of Europe."

In 1830, after an uprising in France, the Poles in Russia revolt.

Nicholas crushes the rebellion, abrogates the Polish constitution, and reduces Russian Poland to the status of a province.
