 Prince Felix of Schwarzenberg - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Felix Prinz zu Schwarzenberg (October 2, 1800, Český Krumlov, Bohemia - April 5, 1852, Vienna, Austria) was an Austrian statesman who restored the Habsburg empire as a European power following the disorders of 1848.
The nephew of Prince Karl Philipp zu Schwarzenberg, the commander of the Austrian armies in the last phases of the Napoleonic wars, Schwarzenberg entered the diplomatic service, where he became a protégé of Prince Klemens von Metternich and served in several Austrian embassies.
He reestablished order in Austria with the Constitution of 1849 that transformed the Habsburg empire into a unitary, centralized stat, and imposed the Punctation of Olmütz on Prussia, forcing Prussia to abandon, for the moment, of unifying Germany under its own auspices, and to acquiesce in the reformation of the old Germanic Confederation.
