I don't know whether you've already done a second part of Big Countries That Became Smaller, but if it's still to come you might consider the Kingdom of Burgundy.

    • @jimosea6133

      Medieval Mongolia and China were actually very close. Genghis Khan accepted many benefits from China.
      China provided Mongolia with many engineers, technology and funds to fight against the Jin Dynasty. In the later period of the Western Expedition, Due to the gradual decay of Mongolian soldiers, Mongolia had to recruit Han people, and the number of Han people in the army once exceeded that of The Mongols.
      But the Latter part of the Mongol Empire, though very strong, did not attack China in friendship. But China took the initiative and waged a 50-year war against Mongolia, dragging it into the quagmires, killing Mungo khan (the grandson of Genghis Khan), forcing the Mongols to stop their westward march, and indirectly splitting the Mongol Empire.
      China was a very underrated country at that time. After the Yuan conquered the Song dynasty, in fact, China was also in a state of long separation from han. The Yuan dynasty could hardly control China.
      After the Restoration of the Ming Dynasty, the Northern expeditions were carried out to Mongolia for more than ten times, which divided Mongolia and even killed people in some parts of Mongolia into no man's land. By some estimates, tens of millions of Mongolians may have died in the war
      The Qing emperors also carried out malicious family planning against the Mongols, reducing the population of Mongolia by tens of millions to less than half a million. And the Republic of China, and today the People's Republic of China, has been enforcing sanctions against Mongolia.
      China has been crushing Mongolia for 600 years. But the Mongolians in Inner Mongolia seem to be loved by all the ethnic groups in China

      I don't think Greece really qualifies. Prior to the Macedonians, "Greece" wasn't unified by any stretch of the imagination, and arguing that the Macedonian Empire should count as Greece is definitely controversial. The Byzantine Empire was just the Eastern Roman Empire, but I could see an argument of it being considered "Greece" since Hellenic culture was the most prominent in the east, but it'd cause quite the stir in the comments

    • @bobbyolsson7956

      To say that the Macedonian Empire could count as modern Greece, is a highly ridiculous and outrageous statement.
      Respectable world historians will laugh in their face for wanting to absorb anything that is in (as of about 100 years ago) or near the modern Greek territory, as part of the modern Greek history.
      2 millennia ago, Macedonia was a monarchy, while the separate Hellene city states were a democracy.
      Hellenes considered Macedonians as barbarians, different from them, not even worth for slaves, and both people despised each other.
      In the battle of Chaeronea in 338BC Phillip II and Alexander the Great crushed the united Hellene forces, and put all the Hellene city-states under the Macedonian dominion.
      2300 years have passed. And in the meantime the region was under the Roman Empire, the Eastern Roman Empire, the Ottoman Empire. Tons of tribes have invaded the region, and have completely changed the genes of the people living on the Balkan peninsula. And today modern Greeks claim they are pure blooded people descending directly from some ancient people? How bonkers do you have to be to believe in that!?

      I do too. They had the greatest football (soccer) team in the entire world in the 1950s. They could've, and probably should have, won the World Cup in 1956 but they didn't. The Soviets took over and completely dismantled the country and the team. Tragic.

      Why u feel bad ? Hungary didn't have a ethnic majority in their own country. Greater Hungary was not a holy thing, bless by God. If u are a minority in your own country, is normal to lose lands. Sure, the Treathy of Trianon was not perfect. Back in 1920, Hungary deserve more land.... perfect treathy doesn't exist. Btw, why u guys think that lands inhabitant by ukrainians, slovaks, serbians and romanians must stay in Hungary ?

    Today's smallest country is Vatican City, the Papal state within Rome's boundaries, with a total area of 0.4 squared km and a few hundred inhabitants. In mid 19 century the Papal State was much larger, comprising the whole (or almost the whole) of today Lazio, Umbria, Romagna, Marche for over 40.000 squared km and more than 3 million inhabitants. I think both in total area and population is the most reduced state in history!
    In 20 century I think that among the most reduced states still existing today there is Austria after WWI.
