Before his assassination, Franz Ferdinand came up with a plan to maintain the empire while granting a lot of autonomy to it's provinces and territories, called "the United States of Greater Austria", which only sounds dumb but was actually a pretty neat idea.

The Hungarians wanted to break up with the Habsburgs in 1848, fighting a war of independence against the Austrians. The victory could have been successful, but the Habsburgs called on the Russians for help, who defeated the Hungarians together with the Habsburgs. If this had not happened, Austria and Hungary would have been two separate countries.

Who else was first surprised to see China in the list of countries losing territory?

Hmm. That empire doesnt look big enough. How about we add just a *little* bit of Serbia to it.

In an alternate universe: what if the Austro-Hungarian Empire fell today?

[samuelswaney]

If anything if Austria-Hungary did come back it would probably be better for it to be a federation to ease the diverse population from autonomy.
