Kingdom of Hungary
The Kingdom of Hungary was founded when Stephen I was crowned as its first Christian king in 1000. It was a major central European power in the Middle Ages, but most of it fell to the Ottomans after the Battle of Mohács in 1526 before the Habsburgs reunited it. After 1867 it formed half of Austria-Hungary, and it became a republic in 1946.
