One of those "usual" revolutions against the Austrian-Habsburg monarchy in Hungary. Google search logo here today.
The horseman is a typical make of our honey cakes.

Nice logo. Funny, nothing down here...

No wonder. You guys down there were not that enthusiastic about it (we were even at war a bit in September)

Thanks for reminding me
And today, we have a nice Jelaฤiฤ monument in Zagreb.
Erected by the Austrians -
I can see it at https://www.google.hu
Austrian site looks innocent: https://www.google.atBy the way, this was a very busy week in many parts of Europe, revolutions sprang up like mushrooms but not all were as successful as in Hungary.

Well, it was just two days before in Vienna itself. But indeed, in Hungary it lasted till August the following year. And the Habsburg dynasty could not even suppress it but the emperor had to kiss the arse of the Russian Tsar and some 300,000 Russian soldiers invaded Hungary in 1949. (But at least we had a rehearsal for another invasion in 1956
)
