How did the Hapsburg respond when nationalism revolts broke out?

The Habsburgs responded to nationalism revolts in the 19th century with a combination of military force and political concessions. Initially, they suppressed uprisings through military intervention and repression, particularly during the revolutions of 1848. However, they later recognized the need for reform and granted some concessions, such as constitutional changes and limited autonomy to various ethnic groups, in an attempt to quell unrest and maintain the empire's stability. Despite these efforts, nationalist sentiments continued to challenge Habsburg authority throughout the empire.
