Archduke Albert (born Aug. 3, 1817, Vienna—died Feb. 18, 1895, Arco, South Tirol, Austria-Hungary) was an able field marshal who distinguished himself in the suppression of the Italian Revolution of 1848 and in the Austro-Prussian War (1866) and whose reforms turned the Austrian Army into a modern fighting force after its rout by Prussia.
The ambitious Albrecht insisted on a division of the inheritance, especially after the death of the heir to the Albertine line, Ladislaus Postumus, in 1457, demanding the cession of the regency over the duchy of Austria (equivalent to modern-day Upper and Lower Austria including Vienna).
