Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The Viennese revolutionaries of 1848 were not quickly subdued; the revolution in Vienna was part of the wider series of 1848 revolutions across Europe, which saw significant fighting and changes in political structures before they were eventually suppressed or led to reforms. The initial successes of the revolutionaries in Vienna, including the resignation of Metternich and the promise of a constitution, indicate that the suppression was not immediate.
