Austria, too was to have got share III this par

Tie parts played by the different States of Eu-
ripe have changed since then. The revolution of

Victor EInspuel assembled the throne about tue

Italy, defeated in Hungary, but by the aid of
Russia be became once more the uncontrolled
master of his EupIre. He then threw himself
into tie hands OF reckless reactiOnary adveuturers
