CALIFORNIA CONTENT STANDARD 10.6.2 Europe After World War I

REVIEW

Specific Objective: Describe the effects of World War I and resulting terms of peace on population shifts, world economy, and political borders in Europe and the Middle East.

Read the maps and the summary to answer questions on the next page.

The Treaty of Versailles was only one of a number of treaties negotiated at the end of World War I. The treaties resulted in new national boundaries and new countries.

As the maps show, the postwar treaties carved up old empires into many small new nations, causing huge land losses for the Central Powers and changing the face of Europe. • The former empire of Austria-Hungary was dissolved, and new nations were created

from its land: Austria, Hungary, Czechoslovakia, and Yugoslavia.• The Ottoman Turks had to give up much of their land in southwest Asia and the

Middle East. In Europe, they retained only the country of Turkey.• Poland, which had long been divided among Germany, Russia, and Austria-Hungary,

was reconstituted. • Russian land yielded the new nations of Finland, Estonia, Latvia, and Lithuania. • Russia and Austria-Hungary gave up additional territory to Poland and Romania.
