Quick Summary

The Treaty of Szatmár, signed in April 1711, established peace between the Hungarian Kuruc rebels and the Habsburg armies. While it largely confirmed previous agreements, the new king, Charles III, genuinely sought peace with Hungary. This treaty ended the eight-year rebellion led by Francis Rákóczi II, which had been a response to oppressive Habsburg rule following the Ottoman withdrawal. The treaty brought an end to the worst abuses of Habsburg authority, ushering in a period of relative calm and improved relations between Hungary and the Austrian monarchy.12
