Abstract
Abstract The Paris Peace Conference was largely about territory and geography, as Allied leaders drew three thousand miles of new borders in what was the largest such administrative endeavor in geography up to that time. This paper examines the Interallied Commission for the Delimitation of the Boundary between Austria and Hungary, a commission tasked by to demarcate the new post-Paris boundary between Austria and Hungary. It argues that Commission activities evolved as a response to local circumstances within the broader crisis created by the redrawing of boundaries. Constrained by instructions from the Ambassadors Conference, with its work subject to ratification by the League of Nations, the Commission attended not only to the technical operation of demarcating boundaries, but increasingly to securing a peace in the region that would make such demarcation possible in the present and sustainable in the future.
