He was also a political scientist,international lawyer,macroeconomist,member of the Hungarian Academy of Sciences and champion duelist. The outbreak of World War One defined his second term as prime minister. He was killed by leftist revolutionaries on 31 October 1918 during the Aster Revolution,the day Hungary declared its independence,dissolving the Dual Monarchy or Austro-Hungarian Empire. Tisza was the most zealous adherent of the Dual Monarchy among the Hungarian political leaders and pleaded for consensus between liberals and conservatives. As a Member of the Imperial Council since 1887,he came to fear a political impasse in the conflict between the unyielding temper of the Emperor and the revolutionary spirit of the extremists. Tisza was bitterly unpopular among ethnic Hungarian voters and therefore - similarly to his father Kálmán Tisza - he drew most of his votes from ethnic minorities during the parliamentary elections.

The Kingdom of Hungary,referred to retrospectively as the Regency and the Horthy era,existed as a country from 1920 to 1946 under the rule of Miklós Horthy,Regent of Hungary,who officially represented the Hungarian monarchy. In reality there was no king,and attempts by King Charles IV to return to the throne shortly before his death were prevented by Horthy. Hungary under Horthy was characterized by its conservative,nationalist,and fiercely anti-communist character. The government was based on an unstable alliance of conservatives and right-wingers. Foreign policy was characterized by revisionism —the total or partial revision of the Treaty of Trianon,which had seen Hungary lose over 70% of its historic territory along with over three million Hungarians,who mostly lived in the border territories outside the new borders of the kingdom,in the Kingdom of Romania and the newly created states of Czechoslovakia and the Kingdom of Serbs,Croats and Slovenes. Republican Austria,the successor of the former other half of the dual monarchy also received some minor territory from Hungary. Thus the post-1918 Kingdom can be described as a rump state. Hungary's interwar politics were dominated by a focus on the territorial losses suffered in this treaty,with the resentment continuing until the present.
