Did you know Hungary was formerly considered one of Europe's most powerful countries?

 

Hungary has been an important crossroads of commerce, ideas, and armies since the Magyars. For an extended period, the Ottoman Empire and the Austrian Empire ruled almost two-thirds of Hungary

This occupation had a significant economic, military, and cultural influence on the nation.

 

In reaction to the expanding dominance of Prussia (the German-speaking state that gave birth to modern Germany) and Russia, the Austrian Habsburg emperor promised Hungary an "equal part" of the empire in 1867. 

The Austro-Hungarian Empire was established.

 

Hungary gained independence after the Austro-Hungarian defeat in WWI. Unfortunately, its position rendered it vulnerable to the greater powers in the region, and Hungary sided with Hitler during WWII. 

Hungary became a hardline communist state under Soviet authority after the Soviet invasion of the war.
