Tensions between Vienna and Pest mount steadily, and in September, when the rest of the monarchy had been reduced, Jelacic leads an Austrian-inspired Croat army into Hungary.

A committee of national defense under Kossuth takes control, authorizes the establishment of a Hungarian army, and issues paper money to fund it.

The improvised national army drives Jelacic out of the country.
