Question
How were the Ottoman Empire and Austria-Hungary affected similarly following World War I?A.Both empires were required to give up all of their military forces.B.Both empires were broken up either into small independent states or regions governed by mandates given to other European powers.C.Both empires were granted new territory in exchange for joining the League of Nations.D.Both empires were split into colonies controlled by Great Britain and France.
Solution
The correct answer is B. Both the Ottoman Empire and Austria-Hungary were broken up into smaller independent states or regions governed by mandates given to other European powers following World War I.
Here's a step-by-step explanation:
-
The Ottoman Empire, after World War I, was partitioned by the Treaty of Sèvres in 1920. This led to the creation of many new states such as Turkey, Iraq, Syria, and Palestine. Some of these regions were put under the mandate of European powers like Britain and France.
-
Similarly, the Austro-Hungarian Empire was also dissolved after the war. The Treaty of Saint-Germain-en-Laye (1919) and the Treaty of Trianon (1920) led to the creation of several new states including Austria, Hungary, Czechoslovakia, and parts of Yugoslavia.
So, both empires were similarly affected as they were broken up into smaller states or regions governed by other powers.
