Geography of Hungary World Facts Index Hungary Weather Map of Hungary With a land area of 92,103 square kilometers, Hungary is roughly the size of the state of Indiana. It measures about 250 kilometers from north to south and 524 kilometers from east to west. It has some 2,258 kilometers of boundaries, shared with Austria to the west, Yugoslavia to the south and southwest, Romania to the southeast, the Soviet Union to the northeast, and Czechoslovakia to the north. Hungary's modern borders were first established after World War I when, by the terms of the Treaty of Trianon in 1920, it lost more than two-thirds of what had formerly been the Kingdom of Hungary and 58.5 percent of its population. With the aid of Nazi Germany, the country secured some boundary revisions at the expense of parts of Slovakia in 1938 and Carpatho-Ukraine in 1939 and at the expense of Romania in 1940. However, Hungary lost these territories again with its defeat in World War II. After World War II, the Trianon boundaries were restored with a small revision that benefited Czechoslovakia. Topography Most of the country has an elevation of fewer than 200 meters. Although Hungary has several moderately high ranges of mountains, those reaching heights of 300 meters or more cover less than 2 percent of the country. The highest point in the country is Mount Kekes (1,008 meters) in the Matra Mountains northeast of Budapest. The lowest spot is 77.6 meters above sea level, located in the Hortobagy.

Courtesy Embassy of Austria, Washington A key objective of post-1945 Austrian governments was ending the Four Power occupation and preventing the permanent division of Austria. The Allies' greater preoccupation with Germany delayed formal treaty negotiations with Austria until January 1947. By then, however, the larger strategic issues of the Cold War overshadowed the negotiations. The Soviet Union dropped its support for Yugoslav territorial claims against Austria in 1948 when Yugoslavia broke with the Soviet Union, but new issues arose to block progress toward ending the occupation: the Berlin blockade of 1948; the founding of the North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO) and the division of Germany into two rival states in 1949; and the start of the Korean War in 1950. Following Soviet leader Joseph Stalin's death in March 1953, the Austrian government, headed by the newly elected chancellor, Julius Raab, sought to break the stalemate by proposing that Austria promise not to join any military bloc. The Indian ambassador to Moscow, acting as intermediary for the Austrians, went further and suggested permanent neutrality as the basis for a treaty. The Western Allies did not favor this proposal, and the Soviet Union continued to insist on the priority of a settlement in Germany.

Topography and Drainage Austria is a small, predominantly mountainous country located in south-central Europe. It has a total area of 83,859 square kilometers, about twice the size of Switzerland and slightly smaller than the state of Maine. The landlocked country shares national borders with Switzerland and the tiny principality of Liechtenstein to the west (200 kilometers together), Germany (784 kilometers) and the Czech Republic and Slovakia (568 kilometers together) to the north, Hungary to the east (346 kilometers), and Slovenia (311 kilometers) and Italy (430 kilometers) to the south. The westernmost third of the somewhat pear-shaped country consists of a narrow corridor between Germany and Italy that is between thirty-two and sixty kilometers wide. The rest of Austria lies to the east and has a maximum north-south width of 280 kilometers. The country measures almost 600 kilometers in length, extending from Lake Constance on the Austrian-Swiss border in the west to the Neusiedler See on the Austrian-Hungarian border in the east. The contrast between these two lakesone in the Alps and the other a typical steppe lake on the westernmost fringe of the Hungarian Plainillustrates the diversity of Austria's landscape. Seven of Austria's nine provinces have long historical traditions predating the establishment of the Republic of Austria in 1918: Upper Austria, Lower Austria, Styria, Carinthia, Salzburg, Tirol, and Vorarlberg (see

Austria's total area is 83,858 sq. km. Given its location, Austria has always been a cross-roads on the lines of communication between the major European economic and cultural regions. Austria has common borders with eight other countries, namely Germany, the Czech Republic, Slovakia, Hungary, Slovenia, Italy, Switzerland, and Liechtenstein. This European core-land includes a wide variety of landscapes, climatic conditions and flora. Austria's landscapes range from high and low mountainous regions to hilly country and plains. The foothills of the Alps and the Carpathian mountains, the Vienna basin, and the Austrian part of the Pannonian plains in the east are the major urban areas and economic centres. Austria's highest mountain is the Grossglockner with 3,797 metres. The longest river is the Danube, flowing some 350 kilometres through Austrian territory. Much of Austria belongs to the Central European transitional climatic zone, which is temperate. Its basic temperate character is influenced by the temperate Atlantic climate in the west and northwest, and the continental climate in the east of the country. Precipitation levels drop significantly from west to east and increase with higher altitude. The diverse topography and various climatic conditions provide the basis of the country's abundant flora and fauna. Austria figures among Europe's most densely wooded countries, with forty-seven per cent of its total area covered by woodland.

Following annexation by Nazi Germany in 1938 and subsequent occupation by the victorious Allies, Austria's 1955 State Treaty declared the country "permanently neutral" as a condition of Soviet military withdrawal. Neutrality, once ingrained as part of the Austrian cultural identity, has been called into question since the Soviet collapse and Austria's increasingly prominent role in European affairs. A prosperous country, Austria joined the European Union in 1995 and the euro monetary system in 1999.

e-mail us Croatia-in-English.com How the Croatian alphabet is shown on this site. Croatians were Austrians!! Well, sort of. Many people studying their genealogy for the first time get confused when they discover that their Croatian ancestor was an Austrian citizen (in some cases a Hungarian citizen). All immigrants who were born before 1919 in what is now Croatia were born in Austria and were citizens of Austria. No, they weren't real Austrians. They were Dalmatians or Croatians or Slavonians (or in some cases a minority ethnic group like Serbs or Hungarians who were living in Croatia). But they weren't real Austrians. Real Austrians are of Germanic blood and speak a Germanic language. Croatians are of a Slavic blood and speak a Slavic language. What is today Croatia was occupied territory in those days. Austria ruled Croatia. However, many Croatian-born "Austrians" went out into the world and found it to their advantage to play up the "Austrian" angle. No one knew where Croatia or Dalmatia was but everyone had heard of Austria and Vienna (operas, Mozart, Strauss waltzes, etc.). And most of them had left at a very young age and had not received the indoctrination necessary for them to feel the pride of being "Croatian" vs. being "Austrian." So they claimed to be Austrian but they weren't. Back home they would have been soundly chastised for such claims. Many an argument has ensued over this point over the years among the diaspora. Today few people of Croatian descent can understand what all the fuss was about. But back then it was a very big deal.
