Extract

Since 1918, much historical debate on Austria–Hungary has revolved around the supposed inevitability of its demise. Most historians of recent decades have rejected this inevitability. Nevertheless, one can argue that although Austria–Hungary could have survived well into the twentieth century, there were certainly key factors and decisions that made its dissolution much more likely.
