Russia view of Britain at Congress of Vienna

Before the Congress of Vienna Britain and Russia became allies in order to stop Napoleon from expanding the French empire. However, at the Congress of Vienna the two sides did not like each other at all. Russia's main ambitions for the congress were too gain lands in the Duchy of Warsaw and to expand their borders further west. Britain who was concerned about balance of power, feared that the Russians would become to powerful and possess to much land. Therefore, the British objected to Russian efforts to gain land. This made the Russians angry and made the British and Russians dislike each other.
