France takes advantage of the estrangement between Austria and Russia to set up a military confrontation between Austrian and Italian nationalist forces.

This opens the door to French military intervention in support of the Italians in 1859.

Because Franz Joseph is unwilling to make the concessions that are Prussia's price for assistance from the German Confederation and because he fears the French might stir up trouble in Hungary, Franz Joseph surrenders Lombardy in July 1859.
