Sažetak
In the spring of 1849, when the defeat of the Hungarian Revolution already seemed certain, the young emperor and king Francis Joseph proclaimed the Imposed March Constitution (Oktroyierte Märzverfassung), which was basically the introduction of (neo) absolutism in the Habsburg Monarchy (formally proclaimed by the New Year’s Patent (Silvesterpatent) of 1851). This act caused a wave of disappointment throughout the Empire, including Croats. Croatian ban (governor) Josip Jelačić also fell as a victim to the betrayed hopes of the Croatian political movement. Remaining until his death in the position of Croatian ban, Jelačić was in the eyes of a significant part of the public only a representative of the hated regime ; his former charisma and popularity have largely melted away, and more understanding for his plight in 1849-1859 will emerge and be expressed publicly only after his death. Despite the widespread impression among Croats, Vienna did not equally “reward” Croats and “punish” Hungarians, but there is no doubt that absolutism influenced the improvement of relations between Croats and Hungarians.
