How did Bismarck's foreign policy aim to maintain peace in Europe?

Bismarck's foreign policy, known as the "Bismarckian system," aimed to maintain peace through a complex web of alliances and treaties, such as the Triple Alliance and the Reinsurance Treaty with Russia. He sought to isolate France diplomatically, prevent any two-front conflicts for Germany, and maintain a balance of power, especially in the Balkans and among great powers in Europe.
