Austria-Hungary and Russia intervened in the Ottoman Empire's domestic problems in order to expand their Empires and strategic alliances. The Balkan countries intervened in the Ottoman Empire's problems in order to gain proper independence.
This meddling was occurring in the 19th century when Austria-Hungary and Russia proper were powerful countries that had no major territories under Ottoman control. (They both acquired Ottoman territories later, but these were external regions like the Ukraine or Croatia which are separate nations today.) In 1800, Greece, Crete, Serbia, Bosnia, and Bulgaria were all territories of the Ottoman Empire whose people were just beginning to achieve national consciousness and trying to organize their various ethnic groups into one contiguous homeland.

In 1800, there were approximately 200 recognized political entities around the world, though the exact number of countries can be difficult to determine due to varying definitions and the presence of empires and colonies. Many regions we consider countries today were either part of larger empires or not yet fully independent nations. For example, significant areas were controlled by empires like the British, French, and Ottoman Empires. Therefore, the concept of "countries" at that time was quite different from today's geopolitical landscape.
