The 1848 revolution in the Kingdom of…

1840 CE to 1851 CE

The 1848 revolution in the Kingdom of Hungary temporarily topples Habsburg absolutism, and there is an attempt at establishing a liberal constitutional government.

Conflict soon ensues between the Hungarians and several other nationalities as to how Hungary is to be restructured.

Hungarian liberals like Louis Kossuth, who favor the overthrow of the Habsburgs and an independent Hungary, are at the same time opposed to the aspirations of the non-Hungarian nationalities.

The liberals seek to create a national state solely for the Hungarians.
