Summary
Geographical Limits of the Discussed Problem
When, following World War II, Poland restored her independence the Polish-Czechoslovakian borderline resembled to a large extent the former borderline between Austria and Prussia as well as the borderline that at one time divided Cislitavia (Cisleithanien) and Translitavia (Transleithanien) in the former Austro-Hungarian monarchy. In some small areas the aforementioned borderline was subjected to changes which the ethnic relationships or political reasons necessitated. The changes of that type were detectable in the area of Spisz (Szepes) and Orawa (Arva). In this territory the borderline was shifted to the south. As a result two small parts of the previous territory of Hungarian Kingdom (in its shape from 1917/1918) found themselves within the boundaries of Poland. The Hungarian law remained in force in this area in compliance with the time-sanctified principle which commanded to respect the law which previously governed this region.
On that occasion it is worthwhile to emphasize that the discussed part of the former Hungarian Sepesz territory which belonged to Poland from 1918 was quite different from the area of the Zips pledge of the 15th through 18th centuries.
The Time Limits within which the Hungarian Law Remained in Force in the Territory of the Second Republic of Poland
Prior to the unification of her civil law, Poland of the inter war time was subject to five legal systems including, among others, that of Germany (the BGB), that of Austria (the ABGB), that of Russia, that of Hungary and that of France.
