Szeklers and csangos don't represent 15 million hungarian. As carpatz said in the last 50-60 years there was significant mixing between romanians and hungarians in Transylvania, so it's not a new thing that they are relative close to each other, but the complete hungarian and romanian ethnicity is far away. Even serbs are closer than romanians.

What I do find to have been unfair towards German Austrians and Hungarians in the post-ww1 treaties was the fact that the almost wholly German populated South Tyrol was given to Italy, the union of Austria with Germany was forbidden and they gave majority Hungarian areas on the borders of modern day Hungary to Czechoslovakia and Yugoslavia. But Hungarians exaggerate how unfair the Trianon treaty supposedly was. They are similar to some Germans and pro-Germans who exaggerate how "brutal" the Versailles treaty was with Germany. Overall the peace treaties did much more historical justice, then they punished without reason.

In 1920 1/3 of hungarian population lived in Slovakia, Romania, Yugoslavia etc so it is no exaggeration that Trianon was very unfair. What would you say if 7 million romanian would live outside of Romania?
If you check the ethnic maps you will see many interesting thing:
Serbian population was only 1/4 in Vojvodina. Slovaks were minority in North Hungary, romanians were just 54% in Transylvania.
