Further instances might be cited,<br />particularly in regard to the ill-treatment of Croatia-Slavonia<br />and of the Rumanes and other non-Magyar races of Hungary<br />by various Magyar governments.

Before 1867 the Hapsburg empire did work pretty well. By 20th century standards Mettenich having people arrested by writing a letter and without bothering about courts seems a fairly venial offence.
