It was dissolved shortly after Hungary terminated the union with Austria in 1918 at the end of World War 1. One of Europe's major powers, Austria-Hungary was geographically the second-largest country in Europe (after Russia) and the third-most populous (after Russia and the German Empire), while being among the 10 most populous countries worldwide.

Liberal Party (Hungary)
The Liberal Party () was a political party in Hungary between 1875 and 1906. History The party was established in February 1875 by a merger of the Deák Party and the Left Centre, and won a landslide victory in the July–August 1875 parliamentary elections, winning 333 of the 414 seats in the Diet. Former Left Centre member Kálmán Tisza became prime minister, a post he held until 1890. The Liberal Party was a main supporter of the Austro-Hungarian Compromise of 1867 and the partnership with Austria.

The ethnic minorities had the key role in the maintenance of the compromise in Hungary because they were able to vote the pro-compromise Liberal Party to election victories. The pro-compromise liberal parties were the most popular among ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
