Austria-Hungary, often referred to as the Austro-Hungarian Empire or the Dual Monarchy, was a constitutional monarchy and great power in Central Europe between 1867 and 1918. It was formed with the Austro-Hungarian Compromise of 1867 and was dissolved following its defeat in the First World War.
Why did the Austro-Hungarian Empire end?
The fate of the Empire was decided after the armistice in 1918. Weak and unable to secure its indivisibility through military means, the Austrian government was forced to accept the independence of new nation states. In a sense, World War I played a decisive role in the collapse of the Empire.
How did the Austrian Empire end?
Legally, the collapse of the empire was formalized in the Treaty of Saint-Germain-en-Laye with Austria, which also acted as a peace treaty after the First World War, and in the Treaty of Trianon with Hungary.
