After World War I, the Treaty of Versailles in 1919 redrew many European boundaries, particularly in Central and Eastern Europe, creating new countries such as Poland, Czechoslovakia, and Yugoslavia.

These boundary changes had significant political and ethnic implications that shaped the region's history throughout the 20th century.
