After 1848, autocratic monarchies of Central and Eastern Europe began granting concessions to liberal-nationalist revolutionaries. Serfdom and bonded labour were abolished in the Habsburg dominions and in Russia. Additionally, the Habsburg rulers granted more autonomy to the Hungarians in 1867.

The question directly refers to a specific passage in the textbook. Examiners expect students to name two concrete concessions: (1) abolition of serfdom/bonded labour, and (2) autonomy granted to Hungarians. Mentioning the reason (monarchs realised repression alone couldn't work) adds context but is not mandatory for full marks. Keep it within 2–3 sentences for a 2-mark answer.
