Der Vertrag von Saint Germain
im Kontext der europäischen Nachkriegsordnung
On 10th September 1919, the Austrian government ratified the peace treaty of St. Germain and thereby also confirmedthe division of the county of Tyrol into three (two Austrian and one Italian) parts. This decision, negotiated andfixated between Italy and its allies in the First World War, had a long history rooted in the 19th century as well aswide-ranging consequences after the First World War. This article will analyse the complex developments in Tyrolbefore and after the peace treaty with a focus on the immediate post-war-period.
