style=\"font-family:'Verdana','sans-serif'; font-size:12pt;\">he Royal Flying Corps was created. A little over 2 years before the start of  World War 1 the British Army created the Royal Air Corps as a recognisance  division of the Army. Balloons had been used in wars before for recognisance of  the enemy&rsquo;s position but this was the first time the British army had employed  planes for that use. Britain was a couple of years behind the <a title=\"France\" href=\"https:\/\/www.earth-site.co.uk\/Education\/france\">French<\/a> and <a title=\"Germany\" href=\"https:\/\/www.earth-site.co.uk\/Education\/germany\">German<\/a>  armies that had been using recognisance planes since 1910. The French were the  first nation to see the benefit of using planes in the military combat. Many  couldn&rsquo;t see an advantage to planes over balloons or even the Calvary but the  new military weapons of the day such a well prepared artillery battery made Calvary  charges almost impossible. The Poem &ldquo;charge of the light Brigade&rdquo; talks of one  such encounter with the British light Calvary almost obliterated as it was  wrongly sent against a Russian artillery battery on the 25<sup>th<\/sup> of  October 1854 during the Crimean War. The effectiveness of planes for military  observation would be proven after the outbreak of World War I (on the 28<sup>th<\/sup> of July 1914). On the 22<sup>nd<\/sup> of October a British Captain and  Lieutenant spotted the German army preparing to surround the British  Expeditionary Force. Their report allowed the BEF to retreat and the possible  saved the lives of the 100,000 soldiers. Initially Britain relied heavily on  Frances air corps for recognisance but leading up to and during the First World  War Britain began to catch up in its use of military aircraft. In fact when the  Royal Flying Corpse became the Royal Air Force (RAF) on the 1<sup>st<\/sup> of  April 1918 it became the <a title=\"Geography of Earth\" href=\"https:\/\/www.earth-site.co.uk\/Education\/geography-of-earth\/\">worlds<\/a> first independent Air Force with an Air Force  equal to, and not sub ordinate to, the Army or Navy.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2 class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"text-align:justify;text-indent:36.0pt;\"><strong><span style=\"line-height:115%; font-family:'Verdana','sans-serif'; font-size:12pt;\">On the 13th of April <\/span><span style=\"font-family:'Verdana','sans-serif'; font-size:12pt;\">1849<\/span><\/strong><\/h2>\n<p class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"text-align:justify;text-indent:36.0pt;\"><span style=\"font-family:'Verdana','sans-serif'; font-size:12pt;\">The Kingdom of <a title=\"Hungary\" href=\"https:\/\/www.earth-site.co.uk\/Education\/hungary\">Hungary<\/a> became a Republic. Following the Napoleonic wars, the  economy of Hungary was severly weakened and in the <a title=\"Austria\" href=\"https:\/\/www.earth-site.co.uk\/Education\/austria\">Austrian<\/a> Emperor, Joseph II,  called the Diet (Hungary&rsquo;s Parliament) to convene and discuss what could be  done to improve the situation. The Nobles had the right to pay no tax yet the  tax paying masses had no right to vote. Within the Diet a Liberal Party began  to emerge which called for more rights for the common Hungarian. After Ottoman  victories in Hungary in the sixteenth centaury, Hungary had two kings, one was  of Hungarian-<a title=\"Germany\" href=\"https:\/\/www.earth-site.co.uk\/Education\/germany\">German<\/a> origin and the other was Austrian and known as the Habsburg  Monarchy. Despite this the country was to an extent autonomous, except for  major reforms. The Habsburg Monarchs objected to any reforms proposed by the  Liberals and many of the most outspoken of the party were arrested. On the 15<sup>th<\/sup> of March 1948 Revolution started in Hungary (the 15<sup>th<\/sup> of March is a  national holiday in remembrance of this revolution) and demonstrations took  place in both Buda and Pest (they were separate cities until 1873). The  Imperial Governor accepted the demands of the protestors and soon many more  demonstrations by revolutionaries and counter revolutionaries occurred. 1848  was the year for revolutions in Europe. Austria was dealing with one of its own  while another broke out in <a title=\"France\" href=\"https:\/\/www.earth-site.co.uk\/Education\/france\">France<\/a>. The success of the revolutions in France and  Austria increased the movement of the uprising in Hungary. Under the leadership  of a young lawyer and journalist named Lajos Kossuth and  with Austria busy with its own reforms, as well as the Habsburgs in hiding, the  Governor General had no choice but to give in to the revolutionaries and he  created a new government with democracy at its base. This new government  demanded that taxes collected in Hungary by the Habsburgs should be spent on  Hungary and that the Hungarian regiment of the Habsburg army should answer to  them. By the 31<sup>st<\/sup> of October 1848 the Austrian army had re-taken  Vienna and the Habsburgs returned to power, infused with confidence they vowed  to regain control of their Empire. The Habsburgs chose a new Governor of  Croatia (Croatia was governed by Hungary) who they knew was very loyal to the  Austrian crown and was not sympathetic to the Hungarian uprising.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family:'Verdana','sans-serif'; font-size:12pt; text-align: justify;\">Count Josip  Jelacic was their man and his first act was to deny any governance by the  Hungarian Parliament and made alliances with the Serbs. Count Jelacic then led  his troops to war with Hungary. On the 13th of April  1849 the Hungarian Government  proclaimed itself a Republic, but this wasn&rsquo;t to last. The Habsburgs called on Russia to help re-take Hungary and by August 1849 Hungary was once again firmly under Austrian control.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The 13th of April is New Year\u2019s Day in Cambodia and celebrated in a festival called Chaul Chnam Thmey The [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"parent":0,"menu_order":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":{"_et_pb_use_builder":"","_et_pb_old_content":"","_et_gb_content_width":"","_sitemap_exclude":false,"_sitemap_priority":"","_sitemap_frequency":"","site-sidebar-layout":"default","site-content-layout":"","ast-site-content-layout":"","site-content-style":"default","site-sidebar-style":"default","ast-global-header-display":"","ast-banner-title-visibility":"","ast-main-header-display":"","ast-hfb-above-header-display":"","ast-hfb-below-header-display":"","ast-hfb-mobile-header-display":"","site-post-title":"","ast-breadcrumbs-content":"","ast-featured-img":"","footer-sml-layout":"","theme-transparent-header-meta":"","adv-header-id-meta":"","stick-header-meta":"","header-above-stick-meta":"","header-main-stick-meta":"","header-below-stick-meta":"","astra-migrate-meta-layouts":"default","ast-page-background-enabled":"default","ast-page-background-meta":{"desktop":{"background-color":"var(--ast-global-color-4)","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""},"tablet":{"background-color":"","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""},"mobile":{"background-color":"","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""}},"ast-content-background-meta":{"desktop":{"background-color":"var(--ast-global-color-5)","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""},"tablet":{"background-color":"var(--ast-global-color-5)","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""},"mobile":{"background-color":"var(--ast-global-color-5)","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""}},"footnotes":"","_links_to":"","_links_to_target":""},"class_list":["post-604","page","type-page","status-publish","hentry"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.5 -
