In 1848 and early 1849, Europe witnessed its most widespread revolutionary wave now often referred to as the Springtime of Nations or the Year of Revolution. The increasingly radical widespread protests affected more than fifty countries with France, the states of the German Confederation, Italy, and the Austrian Empire having the most important revolutions. Whilst the uprisings had no significant coordination among their respective revolutionaries, they were brought about by similar contributing factors such as dissatisfaction with the poor governance and the negligence of the European monarchs towards the people, the emergence of new ideas such as nationalism, liberalism, and socialism in Europe, and the shared desire for reform of the middle and working classes. Most of the revolutions of 1848 generally failed and led to the conservatives regaining power. Nevertheless, they effectively catalysed significant reforms in various European states. Features of the Revolutions of 1848 in Italy
The outbreak of the Revolutions of 1848 in Austria had its roots to the social and political tensions brought about by the Congress of Vienna in 1815. With the weakening Concert of Europe, the emergence of new ideas fueled the revolts that affected major cities in the continent. The brewing conflict in the empire made it clear that the Habsburg monarchy would not remain unstirred by the uprisings.
