Österreich-Ungarn
Die Österreichisch-Ungarische Monarchie (Die im Reichsrat vertretenen Königreiche und Länder und die Länder der heiligen ungarischen Stephanskrone), auch bekannt als Donaumonarchie, Doppelmonarchie, von Robert Musil auch Kakanien genannt), war ein Vielvölkerstaat in Mittel- und Südosteuropa, der nach dem Umbau des Kaisertums Österreich zu einer Doppelmonarchie auf der Grundlage des österreichisch-ungarischen Ausgleiches vom 8. Juni 1867 bis zum 31. Oktober 1918 (Austritt Ungarns aus der Realunion) bestand. Sie setzte sich aus zwei Staaten zusammen: aus den „im Reichsrat vertretenen Königreichen und Ländern“, offiziös Cisleithanien (erst ab 1915 amtlich Österreich genannt), und den „Ländern der heiligen ungarischen Stephanskrone“.
