Hungary existed in its 'greater' form for a thousand years so I'm not sure achieving it is a good word here.
>>
>>581308
I'm not American. Also, it may not be strictly irredentist, but it is still the achievement of the "greater America" concept of manifest destiny.
>>
>>581235
China did not achieve all its irredentist claims (Taiwan and Mongolia are free, Vladivostok is stillin the hands of Russia)

But considering the below African standards of collapse and shittening it experienced, the fact that it reclaimed 90% of the old Qing Territories back under control- 3 of which declaring themselves independent countries- is p. impressive.
