Treaty of Trianon Extranotes
The Treaty of Trianon was signed on 4 June 1920 following World War
One. The treaty reduced the size and population of Hungary by about
two thirds, stripping it of all areas that were not purely Hungarian. It
was made in response to Hungary’s role in the war.
Austria was awarded the Burgenland, but the city of Sopron and its
vicinity were returned to Hungary after a referendum in 1921.
After 1918, Hungary did not have access to the sea, which it had had
directly through the Rijeka coastline and indirectly through the
Kingdom of Croatia-Slavonia.
