Burgenland History: In 1043 a peace treaty between Henry III and King Samuel Aba of Hungary fixed the western border of Hungary along the Leitha and Lafnitz rivers, among others. The territory of the present-day Burgenland remained the western border-zone of Hungary until 1920. The demise of the Austrian-Hungarian (Austro-Hungary) monarchy occured in 1918 and World War I set the date of Burgenland's official unification with Austria as August 28, 1921.

George Tschida was born in Pomogy, Moson, Austro-Hungary (in current times, Pamhagen, Burgenland, Austria).
