description The signing of the Treaty of Trianon in June 1920 was a turning point in the geopolitics of the Hungarian state. Before the war, this geopolitical situation was also somewhat illusory, given that Hungary had only limited sovereignty, being part of the dualistic structure of the Danube Monarchy until October 1918. Following the year 1920, the political landscape of Hungary was characterized by a significant reorganization of its territorial boundaries. The achievement of these goals was complicated by the necessity for Hungary to first break out of international isolation and then find allies. In domestic politics, Budapest was compelled to implement decisive socio-political reforms, as the country’s participation on the international stage was contingent upon these reforms (referred to as internal revision).
