From 1918–1920, Czechoslovakia and Hungary claimed their rights over Slovakia and Subcarpathian Ruthenia, two former Hungarian provinces with a Slavic majority. Czech troops occupied Slovakia and Ruthenia between November 1918 and July 1919, but Hungary only recognized their secession following the Trianon Peace Treaty of 4 June 1920.
