march laws

English - English

Definition of march laws in English English dictionary

Reform measures enacted by the Hungarian Diet in 1848 (see Revolutions of 1848) that sought to create a modern national Magyar state. The program, presented to the Diet by Kossuth Lajos, provided for internal Hungarian control of its own national guard, budget, and foreign policy. The laws were constitutionally confirmed by Emperor Ferdinand I in April 1848. Austria denied the validity of the laws after the revolution was defeated (1849), but Hungary continued to insist on their legality. The Austrians reimposed their domination of Hungary until, under the Compromise of 1867, Hungary received full internal autonomy
