Notes

1. This chronology focuses on the recent past through September 1994. With the exception of the Csángó Hungarians of Moldavia, however, the existence of Hungarian “minority” communities in Eastern and Central Europe is a twentieth-century phenomenon. Hungarians were for the most part concentrated within the borders of their own state, or at least in regions that assumed a Hungarian context, whether the Medieval Kingdom of Hungary, the Pashalik of Buda, an independent Transylvania or the Habsburg and Austro-Hungarian Empires. In the following, a brief chronology of the pre-1918 condition of the Hungarians is provided to place their present “minority” status within the context of the successor states.
