The Collapse of the Hapsburg Empire in World War I

The role the Hapsburg Empire played in the causes of World War I, its feeble alliance with Germany and its political collapse at the end of the war have only recently been explored by historians. This lecture will define the declining state of the second largest empire in Europe at the start of the war and how the war brought about its end. Its collapse would change both the map and the course of history in Europe. The consequences of this collapse can still be seen today. Speaker: Lynn Brand
