| Thanks on the microstates, I think that's the right call. I'm not sure Austria/Hungary (in 1825) is the same thing as UK and Hanover. The UK and Hanover were a pure personal union, with no common institutions besides the king himself. In this time period the connection was even less, because George IV's functions in Hanover were being carried out by a viceroy, his brother the Duke of Cambridge. The Austrian lands weren't precisely a unitary state, but Hungary's position was not particularly distinct from any of the other lands - Lombardy-Venetia or Bohemia or Galicia or whatever had more or less the same mix of autonomy and central control that Hungary did. After 1867 is a different matter, but in this time period I'm not sure why you'd want to split off Hungary. |
