The 1867 Compromise Between Austria and Hungary


In today's episode we're delving into a pivotal moment in the 19th century — the Compromise of 1867, a very important agreement that forever altered the relationship between Austria and Hungary. 

In 1867, after years of negotiations, leaders from Austria and Hungary reached a ground-breaking agreement known as the Compromise or Ausgleich in German or Kiegyezes in Hungarian. This compromise aimed to address the national and political aspirations of the Hungarian Kingdom within the broader Austro-Hungarian framework.

Comments are subject to deletion if they are not germane. I have no problem with a bit of colourful language, but blasphemy or depraved profanity will not be allowed. Attacks on the Catholic Faith will not be tolerated. Comments will be deleted that are republican (Yanks! Note the lower case 'r'!), attacks on the legitimacy of Pope Francis as the Vicar of Christ (I know he's a material heretic and a Protector of Perverts, and I definitely want him gone yesterday! However, he is Pope, and I pray for him every day.), the legitimacy of the House of Windsor or of the claims of the Elder Line of the House of France, or attacks on the legitimacy of any of the currently ruling Houses of Europe.
