Hungarian Nationalism

After reading up on the history of Hungary, I stumbled across this quote. "The Hungarian nobility controlled the Parliament in Budapest. Out of 400 members of Parliament in 1913, only 18 were non-Magyar. Tensions were particularly strong between the Hungarians and the Croats."

This assignment was to identify wether or not the Hungarian government was romantic, liberal, or both. After reading this quote, it is clear to me that it was a romantic country. This is because the definition of Romantic Government is a government composed of people that come from a common background of ideals, religion, or anything that can separate them from other groups. As the quote demonstrates, the parliament was made Magyar councilors.
