"The Hungarian Revolution of 1848 or fully Hungarian Civic Revolution and War of Independence of 1848–1849 (Hungarian: 1848–49-es polgári forradalom és szabadságharc) was one of many European Revolutions of 1848 and was closely linked to other revolutions of 1848 in the Habsburg areas. Although the revolution failed, it is one of the most significant events in Hungary´s modern history, forming a cornerstone of modern Hungarian national identity.
After France (1791) and Belgium (1831), Hungary became the third country of Continental Europe to hold democratic elections (June, 1848), and thereafter, set up a representative type of parliament which replaced the feudal estates based parliamentary system." - (en.wikipedia.org 11.12.2021)
