Treaty of Trianon
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Treaty of Trianon is the peace treaty formed at the end of World War I by the Allies of World War I on one side, and Hungary, because it people said that it was made from Austria-Hungary, on the other.[1][2][3][4] The treaty was written because Hungary had been an enemy of the Allies, and it had lost World War I, so it was punished.
Effects [change]
Hungary lost a lot of its land[5] to neighbouring countries, such as Romania and Czechoslovakia. Hungary was partitioned, lost two thirds of her territory, and one-third of her Hungarian population. There was no referendum.
