The Treaty of St. Germain, signed in 1919, significantly weakened Austria by dissolving the Austro-Hungarian Empire and reducing its territory, leading to the loss of substantial land and populations. The treaty restricted Austria's military capacity, limiting its army to 30,000 men, and imposed reparations that strained its economy. Additionally, it recognized the independence of various ethnic groups, further diminishing Austria's political influence and stability. This loss of territory and power contributed to a sense of national humiliation and economic hardship for the newly established Austrian Republic.
Under the Treaty of Saint-Germain-en-Laye, Austria was not allowed to unite with Germany. The treaty was signed in September of 1919.

The Treaty of St. Germain, signed in 1919, is often viewed as unfair by many, particularly from the perspective of Austria, as it imposed significant territorial losses and military restrictions. It redrew borders and created new nations largely without regard for ethnic and national identities, which led to long-term tensions in the region. While it aimed to ensure peace after World War I, the treaty's harsh terms contributed to economic hardship and political instability in Austria. Overall, opinions on its fairness vary, depending on one's perspective on the post-war order and national self-determination.
It could be debated as being fair as facts prove that Austria-hungary were infact the first country to declare war causing tension to build amongst europe and for the horrific world war to begin
The main treaties after WW1 include the Treaty of St. Germain, which dissolved Austria-Hungary and held votes to move certain conflicting populations. The Treaty of Trianon dealt with Hungary's borders. The Treaty of Sevres dealt with the Ottaman Empire's troubled borders. Finally, the Treaty of Neuilly dealt with Bulgaria's borders.
