Answer:
Because of some inherent reasons, political unity was difficult to be achieved in the Habsburg Empire. Habsburg empire was a patchwork of many different regions and people. It included the Alpine region of Tyrol, Austria and Sudetenland - as well as Bohemia and Galicia and Italian regions of Lombardy and Venetia. Several languages were spoken in these regions, e.g., in Hungary the people spoke Magyr in Galicia-Polish in Lombardy and Venetia. Italian in Bohemia and German in Sudetenland. Similarly the language spoken by the aristocracy and peasants was different. Peasants usually spoke local dialects, whereas the aristocracy spoke German, Italian, Polish, etc. Under these circumstances the feeling of nationalism or a sense of belonging to one state do not develop. A sense of allegiance to an emperor way the only binding force among these diverse people.
