Why did peace treaties seemingly get suddenly harsher in the 20th century?
For example, Austria and France lost the 7 years war but Austria had barely any punishment.
Austria lost the first world war, and had their entire empire dismantled.
What made peace treaties seemingly get way more extreme?

Are you kidding? Never heard about a place called Silesia, right?
Why open threads like this, if you are not interested in the topic at all?

Brit detected
The Seven Years War in Europe was truly lost by Prussia
The only reason they didnt get punisged is because the Russian Tsar loved them
Brits need to realize the shitty skirmish in North America in which they took a decade to defeat severely outnumbered frogs =/= the real Seven Years War
If you wanted a good exemple, you could have mentioned how Austria attacked France three times between 1798 and 1809 and ended up with French troops marching in Vienna each time, yet Napoleon never felt like deposing their emperor

>ahhahahahahah you think france EVER lost a war?
Oh fuck off. I'm Australian anyway, not British. Secondly, the Austrians did not regain Silesia. The War is in every sense of the word a miserable failure for Austria.

Only the last two times, though they probably would have been if the First Coalition War had continued.

Yes Austria lost the war because they couldnt retake Silesia, but at the same time Prussia should have collapsed and its a miracle that they somehow survived through pure tsarist magic, while Vienna or Prague or Budapest or Milan was at no point (i think) seriously threatened by Frederick
