In Poland, it is remembered that the Hungarians helped defeat the Third Mongol invasion of Poland (winter1287/88) The brave Magyars have helped Poles more than once in history. Even during WW2 era, the Hungarians refused to help their german allies in the invasion of Poland, and when the Ukrainian Bandera followers carried out genocide against the defenseless Polish population in Volhynia, the Hungarians defended the Poles. Even during the Warsaw Uprising, the Germans moved units of the Hungarian army away from Warsaw for fear that they would support the Polish insurgents. Hungarians, my dear friends - as a Polander, I thank You very much for a thousand years of friendship, rarely interrupted by incidental conflicts.

The crossroads of Europe, those kingdoms that looked east, faced the Mongols then the Ottoman Turks throughout history…what a bloody and glorious past!

There's no weakness in defeat if you learn from your mistakes

Bela IV, escaping from mongols invasion, took shelter in Croatias fortified medieval town of Gradec and was saved. As a sign of gratitude, he awarded Gradec freedom from all taxes and obligations. This Golden Bula was an important document and an event that greatly contributed to the development of Croatias today capital Zagreb.

The Mongols : Stay down ! You are beaten! Hungary : I didn’t hear no bell ….

In the West often forget but HUngary was a Medieval Great Power and could set up a strong army. During Matthias Corvinus the Black Army of Hungary was the biggest and well-equiped army in Europe.

My grandfather came from Hungary before he settled in N. America. I found this video worth watching.

Deny your enemy access to supplies and plunder. Especially in winter. Good lesson.

Hungary: -Call the ambulance! -But not for me.

Greetings from Poland to Hungary! Great that Hungary was victorious. Poland also managed to defeat the Mongols in several battles. By the way, in the victory of the Poles against the Mongols in the Battle of Stary Sącz, Poland won with the support of Hungarian troops. The Mongols didn't dare to attack Poland after that.

I am a simple Polish girl – I see a video about Hungarian people, I click. "Polak, Węgier dwa bratanki i do szabli i do szklanki. Oba zuchy, oba żwawi, niech im Pan Bóg błogosławi!" 🇵🇱❤️🇭🇺

I love how any time there's a fight, Hungary defends Poland like it is their own brother. More countries could learn from that friendship.

Eastern European history deserves way more attention than it gets from the wider world.

I learned a lot about the Magyars because my wife is one and they know their history. Very rich and it goes back pretty far. Took lotsa pictures!

Respect for Hungary.

As a Hungarian, I found this video very interesting and it contained many details about which we didn't have time to learn in the elementary school. Thank you! :)
