Hungary did have quite a bit of unrest during the 1800s - the nationalist bit, like the rest of the world.

Hungarian Revolution of 1848 was the worst - large-scale rebellion, which the Russians had to be asked to help suppress. The Czar did it very willingly - didn't want the "liberal" problem to spread - and there's no way he wouldn't have done so. Nor could the Hungarians fight them off. Eventual result of this was the formation of Austria-Hungary from the Austrian Empire.

Closest come to that was around WWI - had the war been put off for a few years, A-H would have fallen into civil war.
