Nachfolgestaaten

Nachfolgestaaten, the succession states which, by the treaties of St Germain and Trianon, were established in 1919 on former Austro-Hungarian territory (Austria, Hungary, Czechoslovakia) or took over large areas of it (Poland, Romania, Yugoslavia). Italy, which acquired South Tyrol, was nevertheless not included among the succession states, which were held responsible for proportionate amounts of the Austro-Hungarian national debt.
