Kontinentalközi

Kontinentalközi is a term that appears in some historical contexts, particularly related to the Austro-Hungarian Empire. It translates roughly from Hungarian to "intercontinental" or "between continents." In the context of the empire, it referred to territories that were geographically positioned between the western and eastern parts of the vast, multi-ethnic state. This could encompass regions that were a bridge between different cultural or economic spheres within the empire's dominion.

The concept of "kontinentalközi" was not a formal administrative division but rather a descriptive term used to understand the complex geographical and geopolitical relationships within the Austro-Hungarian Monarchy. It highlighted areas that played a role in connecting disparate parts of the empire, facilitating trade, communication, and the movement of people and ideas. The term can be seen as reflecting the empire's diverse nature and its position straddling various European regions. Its usage is primarily found in historical studies focusing on the administration, geography, or internal dynamics of the Austro-Hungarian Empire.
