Europe 170 years ago today: Vienna Uprising (29 Oct 1848) https://buff.ly/2SrJ6e0 Having imposed peace on the Sardinians, Austria now turned to crush the revolution in Hungary - even though that country was asking for reforms not independence. The population of Vienna sympathized with the Hungarian cause and flew into revolt, expelling the Habsburg imperial court from the city and forcing Austrian troops to hurry back to besiege their own capital. Eventually the Empire prevailed, retaking Vienna while beating back the pursuing Hungarians. #europe #history #welovemaps #map #1840s #1848 #austriahungary #austrianhistory #germanhistory #europeanhistory #frenchrepublic #austrianempire #october #october29 #kingdomofhungary #russianempire #sicily #ottomanempire #twosicilies #britishempire #wallachia #yearofrevolutions #maps #revolution #todayinhistory #historyteacher #historybuff #historygeek #historynerd #victorianera (at Vienna, Austria) https://www.instagram.com/p/BpgrBhnA0cY/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=boow5ne87md

Europe 170 years ago today: June Days (23 Jun 1848) https://omniatlas.com/maps/europe/18480623/ The apparent success of the European revolutions belied the divisions between the city-based reformers, who desired everything from moderate reforms to the complete overthrow of the current systems of government, and the general population, who were often traditionalists. Thus when the new French Republic implemented universal male suffrage, the people elected a conservative government. Shocked, the urban workers and radicals took to the streets of Paris in June but were crushed by the National Guard. The monarchies of Europe took note - if even France could rein in its revolutionaries, so could they. #europe #history #welovemaps #1840s #1848 #austria #austrianempire #map #war #revolution #europeanhistory #france #republic #frenchrepublic #frankfurt #germanconfederation #germany #hungary #italy #june #june23 #maps #piedmont #sardinia #poland #romania #russia #serbia #twosicilies #papalstates #revolutionary #liberalism #yearrevolutions (at Paris, France)

The festivities reflected a nation embracing republican ideals and looking confidently toward the future, while Monet's painting immortalized a single joyful day that continues to symbolize French unity and civic pride.

Bringing an end to 1,000 years of Monarchy. The only king to be executed. Tried by National Convention. Guillotined. The coward deserved it. WE ARE A REPUBLIC. This is a huge step forward for all Revolutionaries!
