4 June 1920: The Treaty of Trianon was signed—Terms were imposed upon Hungary by the Entente powers, not negotiated; the new Hungary contained only 28% of the land & 36% of the population of the old Kingdom of Hungary, more punitive than the terms imposed upon Austria, Bulgaria, or even Germany; 31% of ethnic Hungarians became minorities in Romania, Czechoslovakia, & Austria, et al.
Lest we forget.
Semper exploro.
