Clare Morrison February 24, 2012 at 11:51 AM The new power that swallows the Kingdom of Hungary are the The Russian Empire and the Austrian Empire.The Ottoman empire is shown on both maps. The holy roman empire decreases. Poland contains the prussian empire. It was able to last the longest because it is the furthest away from all of the other empires and it had the most land out of all of them. IN 1660 there about 100 miles of separtion. In 1795 theres about a 400 mile of separation. In each empire the central power became very weak and the people in the empires spoke many different languages which made it very had to govern. THey were all built with a strong monarch. They also had standing army to protect them. Reply
Libby Majeed February 24, 2012 at 11:53 AM In 1795 the Austrian Empire swallows the Kingdom of Hungary. The Ottoman Empire and the Prussian empires were both on there. The Prussian increased, whereas the Ottoman decreased. By 1795, the lands of Poland were divided between the Prussian, Russian, and Austrian empires. The Ottoman Empire was further away than the others and more secluded. The decline of the three empires was caused by a decline in central power, the people in the these empires were difficult to govern because they consisted of many different nationalities and spoke a variety of languages, and because none of them formed their people into a strong organization. The Kingdoms of Russia, Prussia, and Austria were successful because they filled the "political vacuum" and leaderless populations could easily be shifted inside the political boundaries by the monarchs of newer national states.

Kyle February 24, 2012 at 11:57 AM 1)The mongols destroyed the hungarians. 2)prussia, austrian empire, and russian empire increase. 3)The ottoman and russian empire. 4)It was in the best position because it was in good trading grounds due to the location and was near a body of water so they were able to sail to different places for different reasons. 5)In 1795 about 6oo miles apart and in 1660 about 250 miles so it has gotten larger the later. 6)in poland they limited the rulers power and because of that they did not have a strong ruler and caused a decline. in the roman and ottoman empire the roman empire was weakned by the 30 years war and the ottoman empire could no longer conquer due to sulyemans leadership and caused it to weaken. 7)Astrong government and army allowed them to strengthen.

dietta February 24, 2012 at 11:58 AM 1: The Austrian Empire swallowed the Kingdom of Hungary between 1660 and 1795. 2:The first map depicts the Holy Roman Empire, the Kingdom of Hungary, East Prussia, Poland, and the Ottoman Empire. The second map shows that Prussia expands, as well as the Austrain Empire and the Russain Empire. 3: By 1795 the lands of Poland were divided up by Prussia, the Russain Empire, and the Austrain Empire. 4: The Ottoman Empire may have lasted the longest because it was located away from the other empires and therefore may have been less vunerable to other empires engulfing them. 5: The map of 1660 does not show the Russain border, in the map of 1795 the Russain border is also not clear. 6: The problems that caused the declining empires of Poland, the Holy Roman Empire, and the Ottoman Empire included the weakening of central power and the lack of efficient systems of government. 7: Some characteristics that enabled Russai, Austria, and Prussia to rise to power include strong monarchs, and stong armies.

Courtney Hall (Chourtney) February 24, 2012 at 12:01 PM The new powers were Prussia, Russian and Austrian Empire. The first map is of the Holy Roman Empire and the second is of the Russian Empire. The HR Empire increases whereas the Russian Empire decreases. The Ottoman Empire remained. It was near the main routes of transport which help induce trade. In 1660: Approximately 150 miles. In 1795: 300 miles. It was hard to govern because there were many different nationatlities that spoke many different languages. The political boundaries could be shifted easily by the ruling of monarchs of newer national states. This led to the forming of their expanded states in void. Reply
Unknown February 24, 2012 at 12:06 PM 1. The Kingdom of Hungary was swallowed up by The Russian and Romen empires. 2. The Ottoman Empire is shown on both maps. It decreased. 3. By 1795, Poland was divided up by the Holy Roman and the Ottoman Empires. 4. Maybe the Ottoman empire was the most powerful of the three aging powers because power maybe did not become as weak as in the other two empires. Maybe even though the power and government was declining, it did not decline as much in the Ottoman Empire, as in the other two. 5. The Moscow and Russian borders were separated by 300 miles. 6. The decline of Poland, the Holy Roman Empire, and the Ottoman Empire was caused by a political transition in central and Eastern Europe following the Thirty Years War, in 1648. This also caused them to be extinct from Europe. Prussia, the Russian Empire, and the Austrian Empire emerged as powerful forces in Europe. 7. The three declining powers shared many charicteristics. In all of these, central power became weak. They lacked official government and administration systems. Also, these people were hard to govern because of their many nationalities and languages. Finally, none of the people were formed into an organized group. Reply

The Empire that is shown on both maps is the Ottoman Empire, what increased was the Prussia and Russian Empire. The decrease was the Ottoman Empire. 3.The lands of Poland was divided by the Russian,Prussian, and Australian Empire. 4. This empire stayed the longest because it wasn't near the other trading empires. 5. Miles that seperated Moscaw and the Russian border was i dont know in either year because I couldn't find the border of Russia... :( 6. They decline was caused because they lacked the efficient systems of government and administration, people were hard to govern because they consisted of many nationalities and spoke different varieties of languages, and none of the empires formed their poeple into organizations. 7. The characteristics that enabled Russia, Austria, and Prussia were stong armies and monarchs. Reply

Ashle Lopez February 26, 2012 at 7:42 PM 1. The kingdom of Hungary gets swallowed but the Austrian Empire. 2. The empires that are shown on both maps are Prussia and the Ottoman Empire. The Ottoman Epire shrinks slightly and the Prussian empire grows massively. 3. The land of Poland is divided into Prussia, and both the Russian and Austrian Empires. 4. The Ottoman Empore wasn't really connected to the other two empires. Also they had more land and more people who can provide successful trade. 5. In 1660, Moscow is about 100 miles away from the Russian border. In 1795, Moscow is about 400 miles. 6. The problems that cause the decline of Poland, the Holy Roman Empire, and the Ottoman Empire was that they lacked efficient systems of government and administrations. The peopl in these empires were hard to govern because the empires consisted of many languages and nationalities. The governments so didn't help unit the country. 7. Russia, Austria, and Prussia were able to rise to power because they were all built on strong monarchies, had a standing army, and a professional civil service and administration. Reply
