Summary/Abstract: By the time Czechoslovakia occupied Dunacsún (Čunovo), Horvátjárfalu (Jarovce) and Oroszvár (Rusovce) on 15 October 1947 – the three villages that Hungary had to cede in accordance with the Paris Peace Treaty – negotiations between the two parties of the Hungarian-Czechoslovakian Boundary Commission had barely begun. The Peace Treaty called for a boundary commission composed of the representatives of the two governments to determine the exact boundaries of the new frontier within two months. Because the commission also had to make decisions on other related questions, talks lasted until the beginning of 1949. Making use of documents housed in the National Archives of Hungary, we present the structure, activities and agreements of the Hungarian-Czechoslovakian Boundary Commission in the work below.
