The term dual monarchy is generally used only to describe Austria-Hungary between 1867 and 1918. Following its defeat at the hands of Prussia in 1866 and its subsequent exclusion from Germany, the government of the Austrian Empire did a deal with its most powerful and potentially 'troublesome' minority, the Hungarians. Under the terms of the Ausgleich (compromise) of 1867 the territory of the Kingdom of Hungary was given full autonomy in most areas of government. (The details of this compromise are complicated). Technically, the Austrian Empire and the Kingdom of Hungary were made virtually equal in status, with defence, foreign policy, customs duties and the currency and postal service under joint control. Austria-Hungary adopted the official title of Kaiserliche und koenigliche Monarchie Oesterreich-Ungarn - Imperial and royal Monarchy of Austria-Hungary. This empire remained in existence till 1918, when it fell apart towards the end of World War 1.
