Best Answer

From 1814 until implementation of the Treaty of Versailles at the end of World War 1,Galicia (Galizien in German) was the largest province of the Austro-Hungarian Empire. It had long borders to the east and north with the Russian Empire and was the scene of several intense battles between Russian and Austrian/German forces. Large parts of Easter Galicia were invaded by Russian forces early in the war.

The former Austrian province of Galicia should not be confused with the region in Spain called Galicia. They are two different places.
