Austro-Hungarian Dissolution

A dozen years short of a century ago today, the Treaty of Saint-Germain-en-Laye was signed at the Château de Saint-Germain-en-Laye.

The great and late Erik von Kuehnelt-Leddihn remarked that having the Treaty of Versailles signed on the 5^th anniversary of the Sarajevo assassination was distasteful. One might say that it also was distasteful to have the Treaty of Saint-Germain-en-Laye signed on the 21^st anniversary of the assassination of the consort of Franz Josef I of Austria-Hungary.
