Welp you're not wrong, but also you're not really right. Firstly the Entente wasn't interested in breaking A-H up until 1916 and even then there wasn't supposed to be so many countries. And mainly, you claim that so much power was given to the local governments, but you don't mentioned Hungarization or Germanization at all. Despite A-H giving certain competencies to local governments, the fact was that it wasn't at all somehow federalizing or even giving out autonomy. The central government didn't become unimportant all of a sudden. It was the push of the local governments wanting more power over their matters from the central government that fueled the independence lust. The local governments within the Austrian part had little actual power, to the point they had to fight tooth and nail to even get a national theatre or something of that matter and the important legislation being discussed in the Austrian parliament, not the local ones. And that's not even mentioning Hungary, where most people lived a life similar to a serf up until the 1940s. Hungary actively denied autonomy to it's "subjects", especially to Romanians and Slovaks. While yes, Austria did allow language to be used in administration and school, Hungary didn't. Even at the turning point of the century Hungary actively censored local languages and hunted schools teaching in local languages. As far as the Hungarian aristocracy was conserned all in their domein were Hungarian and there was no other nationality in their realm. This is truly what pushed the Empire over the edge, including what you mention in the video.

Hungarization and Germanization was part of the script at first, but I had to cut because I would have to explain what it was, why it was important, etc. and then relate it to the A-H Empire. This was about 2 pages and broke the flow of the script completely. I had multiple paragraphs explaining how destroying local cultures and integrating them into the ruling culture had caused stability in other countries such as France and China. And yes, reading the comments now I realize I should have made it clear that there was a significant difference between the Hungarian regions and the Austrian regions.

Another lesser known fun fact about Austria-Hungary: Austria-Hungary was the 3rd largest oil producer worldwide, after the USA & Russia in the early 20th century (especially 1909), since A-H had an oil-rich region, Galicia. The first European attempt to drill for oil was in Bóbrka, Krosno County, Western Galicia, in 1854 (which used to be part of the Austrian Empire). However, there was a decline just before WW1, and although the oil fields weren't destroyed by the Russians in 1914, oil production was stopped. Galicia was the Central Powers' only major domestic source of oil during the Great War. Today we Austrians have little to no oil at all. Imagine Austria being an oil power. 😂

But Austria (I mean today's territory) did end up with large oil reserves within the Vienna Basin and some of the biggest discoveries were made _after_ WWII. In fact, Austrian oil was by far the most significant backdrop of the Soviet occupation, with the drills working around the clock just to pump as much oil as possible Eastward prior to the establishment of a neutral Austria.

The equality part of the Empire showed that had it had just a bit longer to continue with their reforms, and had Franz Ferdinand not been killed, the Empire might actually be around to this day in at least one form or another. Franz Ferdinand was actually in support of greater freedoms for ethnic minorities in the Empire, and killing him crushed any chance those groups had. It's collapse ironically caused places like Yugoslavia to be even more oppressive of ethnic minorities than the Austro-Hungarian Empire was.

you dont think that was the goal of the serbian ultranationalists in the first place? They didn't want solutions within the existing paradigm, and if someone could offer them, that was explicitly a bad thing. They wanted a serbian empire that integrated bosnians and croats and forced them to "remember being serbian" as they claimed these were just serbian people in invented countries who forgot who they are

@@HeavyMetalorRockfan9 in the second half of 19th century in rural parts of southern croatia, vatican and their missionaries were still forcing orthodox serbs into catholicism. if the harvest failed and starvation was certain, orthodox peoples was offered food if they join the so-called "union chuch". same policy was the case in galicia with ortodox ukrainians (today's russins). if you join and become a so called "uniat" you're forbidden to go into old orthodox churches, pope is you main and only patriarch and new churches got built. venice republic were converting people directly into catholicism prior to AH takeover, so this "programe" was somekind of middle ground before going full catholic. AH empire was main vatican player in 19th century (spain lost its power, france was way too liberal after the revolution, germany half protestant). with such a long history of forced religous convesions (islamization by ottomans, constant vatican campaigns), people tend to not trust to anyone except those marked as "ours". reverse processes did occur, but on much smaller scale. this is where "remember being serbian" came from.

The breakup of A-H is simply an interesting case study, though i personally found it rather depressing. Looking at the direction the country took after The Compromise you almost hope that the system somehow worked and the country was slowly growing, yet it failed. A-H provide important lessons to all multiethnic countries (mine, Indonesia, included) in both how to and how not to manage a multiethnic society.

Somehow the EU feels a little bit like the Austro-Hungarian empire.

These types of much more theoretical historical videos are by far my favorite, and they very much remind me of Kraut's videos, especially with the distinctive art style. The fact is that you really can't cram a whole country's history into just 30 minutes, so explaining the much bigger picture first of all lets you convey that country's history without being bogged down in minor historical events, and to be honest might be even clearer that a long, in-depth look at every facet of that country, that would also probably attract less people. I feel that this sort of history is quite lacking both in educational youtube and in schools. Of course you should study the in-depth histories of countries, don't get me wrong, but especially for a wide audience that understandably wouldn't want to pick up a book or watch dozens of hours of lectures about Austrian history, I think this format is much better than just skimming over the Wikipedia article in half an hour.

I’m Polish-American and I always hated about how we didn’t learn about Poland and Hungary (not Hungarian but we had vizslas when I was growing up) until WWI, as if these countries didn’t exist as we learned about Britain, France, Germany and Spain. I remember asking my 9th grade history teacher about Poland. “Oh, yeah. Poland was powerful in the 1500s.” “Um, so why didn’t we learn about them when we were learning about the 1500s?” So I had to do the learning on my own after that, eventually went in to get a bachelors degree in history. And now I’m very popular among friends and family for having to explain current events in early 2022 to them. I do speak some Hungarian and have friends in Hungary.

Exactly, if they created some sort of United States of Europe with each ethnically homogeneous region forming one of those states, it could have been still around. As the EU proves, nations do not have a problem with willingly giving some of their sovereignty away if it benefits them but Austrians and Hungarians in the AH made the every bad decision they could have and pushed various Slavic nations, Italians and Romanians to position when anything but AH was a better option.

I think the only main problem the Empire had was that its military kept on fighting external wars it could not win. And could not win because it did not have enough factories because the Hungarian part did not industrialize whereas the Austrian part did. Thus the problem was BOTH the loss of the size of the Army and the lack of comparable technology compared to the German Empire.

Magyarization was for all intents and purposes the most mild-mannered assimilationist practice of the 19th and 20th centuries. Given another 20 years and the population would have identified as Hungarians (it was 55% in 1914 and the rate of adoption was growing, having hit 10% per every 10 years). The French underwent much more extreme policies to unify their country, nevermind the far more extreme reprisals faced by Hungarians in the successor states of Czechoslovakia and Romania, and even Ukraine/USSR in which people's households were taken from them and they were sent to work camps for being Hungarian. Magyarization is a massively overstated myth used to justify expansionism in the Kingdom of Hungary and the "need to protect" minorities not dissimilar to the reasoning employed by Russia today. Romania wanted Transylvania because it was significantly richer and more developed than the rest of the country (it still is). Slovakia without the majority Hungarian areas is seriously so small that it could not be considered a state and it was purely agrarian with no cities in it as those were already filled with Hungarian, Germans, and Jews, nevermind the fact that they wouldn't have had the capital city (Pozsony - Bratislava) which was where the Hungarian Parliament met. Canadian residential schools were far more extreme. American segregation too. Nevermind what Brits did to the Boer, or what Belgium did in the Congo, or what Russia did to Jews at the time, or even what Italians wanted to do to Croats living in Istria and Trieste.

I mean, Austria didn't exactly "decide" to go to war with Prussia in 1866. War was declared on them by Prussia. In 1864, Austria and Prussia successfully defeated Denmark in a 9 month war, and Austria was given control over Holstein (a small region in that neck area where the border of what's now Germany and Denmark is). But about a year and a half later, Prussia correctly guessed that (with some help from Risorgimento Italy) they could easily defeat Austria's military, so they claimed that a certain law Austria passed in Holstein violated the treaty ending the 1864 war; Prussia used that as justification to seize Holstein and to declare war on Austria. The war only lasted about a month.

In Croatia, older people spoke mostly positively about Austro-Hungary. Life was relatively good at that time, a lot was being built at that time. Today, there is a lot of architecture from the time of Austro-Hungary in Croatia. Most of the objections were to the imposition of foreign languages, ie the neglect of the Croatian language. But small nations in history have almost always been under someone’s domination. But when you compare all those forces that had power and influence in this area from the Venetians, Hungarians, Turks, Italy, Yugoslavia, to today's EU, we can say that Austria-Hungary was the most successful in its time and least hated by ordinary people. We have the opinion that Austria-Hungary lost the war and failed when Russia intervened in the First World War. This is not mentioned at all in this video.

It is a very detailed video, BUT in many questions/details you are on a wrong footing IMO. Those are too neumerous to list - but the 2 main issues I would highlight - when the Empire was reformed into the A-H Empire - the Austrians basically dumped off nationalistic/ethnic questions to regional level - for example the hungarian part had to deal with its ethnicities in their own bracket (so simply the Austrians kept playing off the ethnicities against each other, partially without responsibility), another major issue was, that although there many mixed areas, most of the ethnicities was living in large blocks, so it was relatively easy to make those parts independent (ofc the largest group, the Hungarians in the center suffered the most, suffering from it till today), 3rd major issue - most nationalities (save the slovask and czechs) have their own independent countries already, so the deam of a nation state was prevalent. Comparing the A-H E. is other multi-ethnic states like the USA is actually pretty bad - you could never say that for example Georgia is all black, New Mexico is all mexican, etc. ...all-in-all a nice effort, but not really a successful one, IMO ... Greetings from Hungary! (1 last thought, IMO the Empire would have fallen eventually any way, but without WW1 there probably woudnt have been a WW2, which devastated the region, put most part under communist control, the effects are still felt today ... and all those live lost in vain)

And that is when Hungary failed. Blaming Austria for taking advantage of ethnic dissensions within Hungary, most of which was created by Hungarian politicians is stupid.

Great video, as always, but there are just one or two things that I kinda questioning firstly, Germanization and Hungarization which absent in your video. But, pinned comment already mention that so I let it pass second, about the autonomy of ethnic groups. what I get is kinda contradictive, in the "rise of empire" part you say the autonomy given to Hungary was a success and bring more stability to AH, but in the last part autonomy is one of main causes for the collapse of AH. I think because this is different from "autonomy" in modern terms which is more synonymous to state autonomy in the USA and Scots autonomy under UK rather than AH autonomy. The autonomy given to Hungary was complete autonomy, as they can have their own military, diplomatic relation, a parliament that was independent of that of the Austrian half, and law that was completely independent without national restriction. While in state terms (also including Scotland for the UK) they can have their own parliament, constitution, language, etc like AH BUT they cannot have their own military (only gendarmerie class), their own diplomatic relation, their parliament is subject to national (not by one constituent state) parliament (like new york HR and S is subordinate to HR and S of USA), and national (or federal) law which restricts and above state law. in modern parliament and political sense, A and H in AH is more like two country glue together without any cohesion and completely independent of each other, and because the legislation must pass the two parliaments, this will ensure the passage of bill WILL always never got pass. third, about the parliaments themselves. AH (especially the Hungarian half) parliaments are described in Encyclopedia Britannica as "the most illiberal in the world" (which said a lot as there were more illiberal states that barely have constitution like Russian and Ottoman at that time). the parliament didn't have any representation for, not just the serf population, but also the working class. the middle class (which drives the country economy) only gets 6%-ish of the parliaments reps. This is also one of the reasons why AH got a constitution in the first place because bankers and the middle class refuse to finance any war unless they got a constitution and reps in parliament. this is bad because the parliament is functionally dependent on nobility and aristocracy which is too conservative and refuses to change anything, which angers the middle class, which stops the economy, which angers the working class, which stops the nation completely. This is why famine happens in late WWI and made AH susceptible to nationalism and separatism. forth, about the entente conspiracy. while yes it is one of the causes, I don't think it is one of the "main" causes of AH collapse. because it is an outside factor and only played as the WWI got too late-stage. Like the pinned comment had said, it's after the late stage of the war they considered it. and that's all, I'm sorry if my comment is too long and/or my english is broken. and I said it again, this is a great video. and also, bonus question. for some reason (you got hit by truck-kun maybe? idk) tomorrow you wake up as Emperor Franz Joseph before the creation of Austro Hungarian Empire, what would you do to save (or destroy?) your empire and ultimately yourself? I am really curious about what others might do in this kind of situation. (and because this is the staple to "isekai" genre in Japanese manga)

Maybe i didn't understand your comment correct, but Hungaries autonomy did not include their own military or their own diplomatic relations. 3 things that were not split but only done together for the whole empire were the army, the foreign ministry and the finance ministry.

@@nirfz Well, it is quite complicated. if you see the Austro-Hungarian Compromise of1867, you can see contradicting points like common foreign minister but also "international commercial treaties and agreements were conducted by Austria and Hungary as an independent nation". This compromise is the foundation of dual monarchy and of AH itself, so we can take a look at it. for the military, "Royal Hungarian Hovend was restored and Imperial-Royal Landwehr was created ... which were respectively placed under the direct control of Austrian and Hungarian Defense Minister only" this is different from the national guard of state in USA because Hovend and Landwehr were established standing army that only subordinate to Hungary or Austria without central command and "The common army and common minister of defense has no right to command Hovend and Landwehr". for the common army as you said, they have different uniform, battalion, names, and if the Hungarian proposal was successful, language and command. Fortunately, the proposal was shut down, but you can see the extent of AH autonomy in it, as A and H have different views on how the army should function. for diplomatic relations, as I said before, although they had a common foreign minister, diplomatic regarding trade and commerce is independent. The parliament also had a lot of sway in diplomatic relations, as they can even reject emperor proposals like the Hungarian parliament rejection to support emperor Franz's proposal to ally with France during the Franco-Prussian war. If only this proposal pass, the german empire maybe wasn't formed, or at very least, been postponed for years. for finance, the compromise also points out "they (A and H) were fiscally sovereign and independent entities" and that's it. sorry if I'm pointing something wrong and/or my English is not good enough. I am using a Wikipedia list of the compromise, so you can check it out if you want to see it more.

(But that doesn't automatically mean you are wrong) The thing with the Hoved on the other hand is a bit more complicated i think than the english wiki page states. Yes, it was not part of the army, and under it's own minister of defense. And it was not under the common ministry of war. But the Honved and the Landwehr were smaller bodies than the army, and only consisted of infantery and cavallry. And yet their supreme commander during peace time was Franz Joseph. As the supreme commander of all armed forces. And in wartime this command was given to a high ranking experienced officer. So they were only "not part of the common armed forces for land warfare" during peacetime.
