History

The Kingdom of Hungary was originally a member of the Axis, joining in 1940, specifically after being enabled by Hitler to fulfill its irredentist goals, retaking multiple swaths of territory formerly stripped from them upon the signing of the 1920 Treaty of Trianon following the Central Powers defeat in the Great War.
