Taxes were getting ridiculously high
Lajos Kossuth’s speak of revolution pushed the ideas of revolution further forward.
The overall economy was rapidly declining
Napoleonic wars had an effect on economy that was still hurting it
Conflict with Austria pushed violence forward.

15. Effects New ministry established
Kossuth and many of his supporters were exiled to America, they eventually fought on the Union side in Civil War.
