Hey man. I like the Austro-Hungarian Empire too.
Was just thinking of the bygone Austro-Hungarian Empire. A lengthy golden age of tradition and splendour, right? Well - it just struck me that it only lasted for 50 years. 1867-1918. That was it for the fabled Austro-Hungarian Empire. The Soviet Union lasted just a little longer, yet seemed like the enduring endpoint of history if you were in the middle of it.
All things must pass...
The Austro-Hungarian empire itself was short-lived but it was the successor state to:
The Austrian Empire (1804-1867)
The Austrian Habsburg monarchy (16th Century-1804)
Although the empire went through various reorganizations, the Habsburg dynasty remained on the throne for centuries.
