The History of Sub-Carpathian Ruthenia in Hungary

In 1919, sub-carpathian ruthenia was detached from Hungary and handed to the new country of Czechoslovakia. After Hungary lost again in World War II, the land was handed to the Soviet Union, and in 1991 to the newly created Ukraine. Viktor Orban has been less than subtle in communicating his desire for the return of other stolen Hungarian lands such as Transylvania. Most likely after the Russians defeat the Ukrainians, the Poles will take back Western Ukraine, both for historical reasons and as a buffer against the Russians.
