Welcome to the Hungarian History Page!

Step Into Hungary’s Epic Past

For centuries, the Kingdom of Hungary was the great frontier—a bloody crossroads where empires clashed, and the fate of Europe hung in the balance. This is a history of epic battles, political intrigue, and a relentless struggle for survival: a real-life Game of Thrones whose consequences still resonate.

My mission is to bring this fascinating, overlooked saga to the English-speaking world. While the 300-year Ottoman wars are the heart of this story, we journey through the entire dramatic arc of Hungarian history.

It all started with a simple Facebook page in 2016, created to fill a void. Today, that page—Hungarian History—boasts over 58,000 followers and is recognized as the largest project of its kind. We focus on the well-researched tales of the “last knights of Europe,” the Valiant Order, and the fortifications that dotted a 1,000-mile military Borderland. Through these stories, we honor the ancestors who stood firm and ensure their legacy is not forgotten.

Please note that I deliberately use the Oriental name order for Hungarians, where the surname comes first.
