The Austro-Hungarian Monarchy is not a state; it is a government.
🟢 Arthur J. May

Austria-Hungary or the Austro-Hungarian Empire, officially the Austro-Hungarian Monarchy and internally The Kingdoms and Lands Represented in the Imperial Council and the Lands of the Crown of Saint Stephen, was a 🟢 multi-ethic 🟢 dual monarchy consisting of 🟢 Cisleithania (Austria) and 🟢 Transleithania (Hungary). Because of this, "he" is usually portrayed as two balls operating as one or as having bipolar disorder. He is also blind because two emblems from his civil ensign became iconic and are used for eyepatches for both eyes.

Due to harboring many different ethnicities, he can speak many languages.

History

Before 1867, there was just the 🟢 Austrian Empire. However, Austria lost a major 🟢 war against 🟢 Prussia in 1866 and was left weak and broke. Inside the empire, the 🟢 Hungarians (the second-largest ethnic group) saw a perfect opportunity to demand more power. To prevent a massive rebellion, Emperor 🟢 Franz Joseph agreed to the Austro-Hungarian Compromise of 1867. This officially split the empire into two equal parts: 🟢 Cisleithania (Austria) and 🟢 Transleithania (Hungary).

Austria-Hungary looked to 🟢 France for avenging his defeat and attempted to negotiate with him and 🟢 Italy for an anti-Prussian alliance, but no terms could be reached. The decisive victory of the 🟢 Prusso-German armies in the Franco-Prussian war and the subsequent founding of the 🟢 German Empire ended all hope of re-establishing 🟢 Austrian influence in Germany.

After being forced out of Germany and Italy, the Dual Monarchy turned to the Balkans, which were in tumult as 🟢 nationalistic movements were gaining strength and demanding 🟢 independence. Both 🟢 Russia and A-H saw an opportunity to expand in this region. Russia took on the role of protector of 🟢 Slavs and 🟢 Orthodox Christians. Austria envisioned a 🟢 multi-ethnic, religiously diverse empire under 🟢 Vienna's control. Thus, A-H made the centerpiece of his policy one of opposition to 🟢 Russian expansion in the Balkans and blocking 🟢 Serbian ambitions to dominate a new 🟢 South Slav federation. He wanted Germany to ally with him, not Russia.

Russian 🟢 Pan-Slavic organizations sent aid to the Balkan rebels and so pressured Russia to declare 🟢 war on the 🟢 Ottoman Empire in 1877 in the name of protecting Orthodox Christians. Unable to mediate between Ottoman and Russia over the control of Serbia, Austria-Hungary declared 🟢 neutrality when the conflict between the two powers escalated into a war. With help from 🟢 Romania and 🟢 Greece, Russia defeated Ottoman and with the Treaty of 🟢 San Stefano tried to create a large pro-Russian 🟢 Bulgaria.
