With the new sketches that were created for Europe, Austria-Hungary was split into Austria and Hungary. There was one new treaty for each country. The treaty that dealt with Austria was 'The Treaty of St. Germain'.
In this post, I will be talking about the treaty that dealt with Hungary: 'The Treaty of Trianon'
The Treaty of Trianon, 1920
TERMS:
- Transylvania and other former Hungarian territories to be taken from Hungary and to be given to Romania.
- Slovakia and Ruthenia to also be taken and given to create the new country Czechoslovakia.
- Slovenia and Croatia is also to be taken from Hungary and given to create the new state Yugoslavia.
- Pay reparations.
MORE INFORMATION:
- Hungary ended up losing a substantial amount of its territory and population (3million Hungarians were forced to become part of a different country).
- Hungary could not pay the reparations as their economy was so weak.
