Dear Monument Australia visitors, we are a self-funded, non-profit organisation, dedicated to recording monuments throughout Australia. Over time the costs of maintaining this website have risen substantially. In the past we have borne all the costs associated with maintaining the website but we are now having difficulties in paying the monthly expenses.
If Monument Australia is useful to you, please make a donation to keep this historical and educational resource available. Your help would be greatly appreciated.

Hungary`s ForestsPrint Page 
Tree represents Hungary's forests which were lost as a condition of the Treaty of Trianon in 1920. The tree was planted on the 85th anniversary of the treaty.
The Treaty was an agreement signed at the end of World War One between the Allies of World War One and Hungary which redefined and reduced Hungary's borders. It left Hungary as a landlocked state that covered 93,073 square kilometres (35,936 sq mi), only 28% of the 325,411 square kilometres (125,642 sq mi) that had constituted the pre-war Kingdom of Hungary (the Hungarian half of the Austro-Hungarian monarchy).
