The Count and Prime Minister of Hungary Lajos Batthyány shot died on 6 October 1849. He was the first Prime Minister of Hungary, and was convicted of high treason (being disloyal to the Emperor of Austria, who was also the King of Hungary), after the Hungarian Revolution of 1848-49 had failed. On April 7th, 1848 he was appointed by Ferdinand I to be the first prime minister of the new parliamentary government of Hungary. Batthyány was a very capable leader, but he was stuck in the middle of a clash between the Austrian Monarchy and the Hungarian separatists. He eventually chose the side of the rebels and became one of its leaders. In a battle in the late 1840s he was wounded and captured. He tried to kill himself the night before his execution, but failed. The next day he was executed by means of a firing squad.
