Austria-Hungary

Habsburg empire dissolved

Austria-Hungary was a dual monarchy in Central Europe from 1867 to 1918, uniting the Austrian Empire and the Kingdom of Hungary under a single ruler.

The empire encompassed much of modern-day Austria, Hungary, Czech Republic, Slovakia, and parts of Poland, Ukraine, Romania, and the Balkans.

Its collapse after World War I redrew the map of Europe.
