  3. The division of Poland between Austria and Russia
  4. The Orleanist/Bourbon conflict in France

Explanation
Answer: A - Austria created the Dual Monarchy to appease the Magyars, who wanted greater autonomy for Hungary. Rather than grant full independence, the Austrians gave Hungary its own constitution, parliament, and representation in government. Magyar was the official language instead of German. Austria and Hungary shared a monarch, minister of finance, and foreign policy.
