Hungarian Monarchs Family Tree 

Actully the most of hungary was in ottoman hand from 1526 until 1687 and zapolya family were an ottoman puppets

Jadwiga is pronounced with a soft J and German W so it sounds like "Yadviga"

It will be awesome if you do video about Morocco King family dynasty. Morocco as a nation is very rich history in north africa region. They have some great kingdom such as Idrisid, Almoravid, Almohad, Marinid, Wattasid, Saadian and Alaouite dynasty

Are you knowledgeable about the development of sir names... I’ve been doing research n apparently my grandfathers family lived in the Hungary region before moving to Mexico... would u have any additional info or research material

Hungary did not conquer Croatia. There was a succession war and Arpad dynasty managed to prevail with majority of Croatian nobility accepting Coloman as King of Croatia in 1102. The Croatian dyansty died out in male line and this was the reason for the succession. King Demetrius Zvonimir was married to Helen, sister of Bela I...they had two daughters and a son, however their son died before Zvonimir and the title went to Zvonimir's nephew who had been a monk, he also died without male issue obviously and this is where the succession crisis arose...Helen claimed the kingdom as the wife of Zvonimir and passed her rights to her brothers Geza and Ladislaus, however they were unable to impose their claim in the entire kingdom and this is where the succession crisis arose as there was a counter-candidate named Petar Svacic/Snacic who most likely also had some relation to the late Tripimirovic dyansty. The claim eventually passed to Geza's son Coloman who managed to enforce his claim and was thus recognized as king. Had Croatia been conquered it would've been colonized and their land and titles would be given to Hungarian families and tribes like it happend f.e. in Norman conquered England, however this did not happen as Croatian nobility retained their possessions and titles. Regarding this...this is a completely missed opportunity on your map as it should've included Croatian Trpimirovic family tree as well and it would compliment it and explain it perfectly. For this reason alone I must say this is one of poorest videos you made so far... Edit: Zapolja/Zapolya/Szapolyai family was not from Transylvania, John Zapolya was Voivode of Transylvania but his estates were in northern Croatia (Slavonia) and he was a Croatian-Slavonian nobleman. This is the reason why I think the fact you omit Croatia in almost the entire video is what I find really misleading and huge flaw in your video. Croatia and Hungary were in personal union and acted as a separate entities in all matters except the ruling monarch, this is why it would have been appropriate to refer all monarchs in this video as Kings of Hungary AND CROATIA. Croatia and Croatian nobility had huge influence in forming what was the medieval Kingdom of Hungary or rather ''Archiregnum" i.e. Lands of the St. Stephen. For example the reason why Capet-Angevin dynasty even succeeded in obtaining the Hungarian and Croatian throne was due to a fact a Croatian Subic noble family gave them crucial support and foothold in both kingdoms. Croatians f.e. were the ones who sheltered Bela IV from the Mongols, bore the brunt of the Ottoman incursion, etc, etc....

the french House of Croÿ is also originated from a hungarian prince, son of Andrew II or III

Wow! I didn't know this story. It's very interesting!

So he didn’t inherit anything because he was an asshat?

I’m now gonna have to check if George is playable in Crusader Kings 3 when I next boot it up

@@ahmadillo4959 probably not playable but you should be able to find him at court in the right timeframe. you could in CK2, i doubt they would take him out of the game

@haiku2222 awesome.!!!!

@@mrmustangman you are Hungarian!! Isten aldjon!!!

@@sandorkarolyi765 Isten áldjon téged is

Mine also came to the U.S. close to that time (just a bit earlier (but not much). And settled in Illinois,then branched out to close by states.Some stayed in Illinois their entire lives.

Thanks. The chart is not printed yet so I can still make changes.

@@UsefulCharts That's great I'm very much looking forward to it :)

Also, just a hint - it's Konrad of Masovia not Mosavia.

Also between 1920 and 1945 the kingdom of hungry was restored, but as far as I know there where only regents since they couldn’t find a suitable kin although it might be interesting to show some of these regents on the chart

Yeah, I was surprised he missed it considering how impactful the "Double Interregnum" (Bohemia and Poland) was to the politics of the region.

I actually passed through Hungary twice. Im a romanian btw

And paprika lol.

I'll be doing the elected monarchs too

@@UsefulCharts cool! thanks for the reply😊

Pannonia was an Ancient Roman provincia(today called Dunántúl).

Around 6 million people in USA have a hungarian heritage.

Grandma came from the united kingdom to the USA after marrying my great grandpa after World War II or during World War II

one of the most popular Hungarian cheese brands is also called Pannónia :)

One additional omitted connection, which other viewers already pointed out, is that in 1440-44 Hungary was again in personal union with Poland, as King Władysław III was also king of Hungary. His reign and the union cut short by death in battle of Varna. There will be later a certain Hungarian nobleman on the Polish-Lithuanian throne in the period of elective monarchy.

It would be interesting how a united Hungarian-Bohemian-Polish-Lithuanian crown play out in the mid 15th century, but Ladislaus died young unfortunately.

that is why we have EU4 :P

You mean Central Europe right? Central Europe contains Germany, Switzerland, Austria, Slovenia, Bohemia, Slovakia, Hungary and Poland. 40 years of iron curtain will never change that fact.

@@thor9517 its not just geografical term..center..its also culture if u go to Croatia and Servia u will see 2 different countries altho we share similar language..Croatia since 7 century in ties with Vatican and Western world also for over 400 years wall of christianity, as pope said if there were no Croatia small italian states would die in the hands of turks

@Jon Skywalker I am hungarian, and we learn the personal union theory in school. I think we consider it to be true, never heard that was debated here

True!!!😎👍

@Guru Charan Are you stupid? It does.

I'm can confirm it. She was King, not Queen!

Yes. Also, her English name should be Hedwig

Thanks. I'll change it.

@@UsefulCharts Also there's a typo in polish part - Kondrat of Mosovia instead of Konrad I of Masovia.

To be fair it was sort of a legal loophole emphasizing that she was crowned a monarch in her own right, therefore Rex rather than Regina. She still was commonly referred to as Queen in Polish. It seems to me that recently people like to stress the fact that she was technically a king because it's a cool piece of historical trivia/gimmick. BTW her name, being (as people already pointed out) the Polish version of Hedwig, is pronounced approximately like "Yadvigah". :)

An old english version of the name is Lancelot

Nope. László = Ladislaus /Wladislaw. Stanislaw has a Hungarian form (rarely used): Szaniszló.

Thanks. I'll be making changes.

But who is hungarian?

@@predacorneliu Árpád, st. Stephen, Béla, basically the house of Árpád

Hungary is middle European

@@AB-bg7os central europe* But who cares about wording lol. Just letting you know its formally addressed as "central europe". Toots.

Hungary literally is eastern european, it's further east than eastern germany was and was under soviet occupation, saying something is eastern doesn't mean it's bad. If it was the case other than romania, bulgaria, ukraine and moldova what is eastern european if hungary isn't?

@@callumgallacher8747 look at the map of Europe! Than you will see that Hungary really is in Central Europe. Eastern Germany was called that to differentiate from the other half of Germany after WW II not because they were on the eastern part of Europe.

Is Poland central Europe then?

@@callumgallacher8747 yes. Eastern Europe is more like Ukraine, Romania etc.

@Aleks Kevyn You and your other buddy are both kinda stupid, forgive me for my frank language. :)))))

that's interesting, could you make a whole family tree as well?

Me too. I am a descendant of the Arpad Dynasty and Napoleon I. It is very interesting!

I am also a descendant of the Arpad Dynasty!

@Jen X Adventures Hey Jen How Did You Find Out ? I Did MyTrueAncestryDNA and It States Im Related To The Arpads And Scottish Clans

@@bencancio914 I did MyTrueAncestryDNA too and got the same result.

Yes, but countries stuck under the iron curtain in the 20th century, are mostly called Eastern Europeans.

@@bluebull852 And that's wrong.

Why not all? ... Yeah we can do that... 😇

Forever Love for Poland

While we call them their name in Magyar form, it doesn't mean they used same like us. Don't forget, they used Latin instead of Hungarian.

@@GregoryKun Thats an interesting point, but its hard to be sure actually as it was not well recorded. I really wonder how for example the transition of Vajk happened to István (Stephen). Do people started calling him on his new name? DId other people who followed him also did this? I guess it must have been a wave of babtism, so many followers got their new names... Interesting times! :)

Dóra Kanizsai persze hogy vannak kis hibákok

Szerintem elírta. Angol qwerty billenyűzeten 1 betűnyire van a G az Y-tól.

Typo. Thanks. I'll fix it.

@@UsefulCharts And at the and its not Zapolya but Szapolyai

@@peternagy6067 Zapolya is used in English for the Szapolyai family

Due to relatively recent archaeogenetic research and publication, the male lineage could be determined. The Árpád dynasty (correctly named Turul dynasty) originated from Bactria, about 4000 years ago.

I cannot help laughing when foreigners try to pronounce Hungarian names because Hungarian is technically a phonetic language, but they overcomplicate it. :D

'ny' is spelled like the n in new

@@mrico523 and as I know he was the king of Jerusalem

Thanks for the tips. Will make changes.

Sprawdź sobie na wiki tytulaturę Jadwigi, to się trochę zdziwisz.

Ah yes: "an accident"

Definitely going to be some Lithuanians in there...

@@UsefulCharts Ulaszlo /Wladyslaw III (Warnenczyk) not mentioned though, what a shame

Thanks. I'll fix it.

Ok "Dung"arian

Glory to Bela Kun!

Socialist administration

It is central if you divide the country in 5 or more (N, S, W, E, C and double combinations of first 4) but if you divide it to two, it has to be in the west or east (or north and south but that division isn't as popular as west and east but if you were to divide Europe south and north, Hungary would be in southern Europe even though if doesn't seem like it and it actually is a good example of what i am trying to say, nice) and among those two it is definitely east

I ONLY drink water for the flavour. If it wasn't so delicious I would LITERALLY die of dehydration. same level

Mostly because of space but I might change it.

Half Polish and some tests say the same for me. My family is from Southern Poland too.

​@@lumina5how do you know that?

az igaz de Euròpát kettè lehet vágni ès a magyarok èppen a keleten vannak

@@ananas4064 Ha van észak, dél, kelet és nyugat, akkor kell lennie egy középpontnak is.

Aleks Kevyn except for when it became Protestant and was forced into being catholic, or when it became Islamic as well. Also, don’t fall for Hungarian nationalist propaganda, Hungary isn’t catholic, it’s not even really Hungarian. It’s a complicated state of a thousand year history.

Charles IV, King of Bohemia and Holy Roman Emperor, had a long and successful reign...

So... Did you enjoy?

It's coming in September

@@UsefulCharts Getting hyped for it :) Though you might want to correct Konrad from Masovia (not Mosavia) also Jadwiga officially held title of King

mon(an)archy - lol

Stop talking about fairy tales.

@@gustory1186 Atila was a first king, That is true.

@@pinkpanther5195 Do you have any proof for that? Especially from a unbiased source.

@George Nathanael Ungerlant/ Ungern terms, twice Nibelungenlied-bert, once around 1260 Biterolf und Dietleib and even Wunderer, also around 1260, are referred to as the King of Hungary. The Sdchsische Weltchronik( Sdchsische Weltchronik), written around 1130, is already huns and Hungarians, i.e. the latter, to be the same as the as descendants of the former. The Huns, led by Warlord Rua (Ruga, Rhuas), merged to 432. In 434, Rua died and left his nephews, Mundzuk's brother's sons Attila and Bleda (Buda) (around 390 - †445), to control the Hun tribes. Attila, rex hunorum, medorum, gotorum et danorum. Attila the Hun - familiar ? Where is HUNGARY /Hungaria/? Arpad's homemade DNA confirms it. China, India recognize the Hungarian, Skyta - Hun identity - as confirmed by recent DNA tests.

They will learn, eventually...

I actually don't think it's such a problem honestly. These categories of "Eastern" and "Central" are in my opinion pretty vague, depending on perspective and not mutually exclusive. If we are dividing Europe into three parts, then Bohemia, Poland, and Hungary are definitely Central rather then Eastern (especially Bohemia), but if we just divide it into Western and Eastern, then yeah... Moreover historically Hungary and especially Poland (Poland-Lithuania) ranged further east than now. Is Transilvania clearly Central European and definitely not Eastern? Are Lviv/Lwów and Vilnius/Wilno? Are Kyiv and even Smolensk, which also were under Polish rule, not Eastern? The real problem is that "Eastern Europe" is sadly commonly viewed as something distinct and worse than the "proper" Europe. I think that by getting offended by the label we are actually kinda confirming the stereotype in the minds of people thinking that way and making the situation worse.

@@Artur_M. For me Central Europe as a geopolitical conglomerate had its most vivid expression as Central Powers during the WW1, and as such has its origins in Holy Roman Empire and its satellite countries. In that sense Poland is on the edge of Central Europe, having been rulled by German kings only for a short time and then having been divided between German and Russian empires. Bohemia and Hungary on the other hand - they gravitated ever closer towards the German part of Europe untill they became a part of it.

The term 'Eastern Europe' is a reference to the Iron Curtain; everything East of this was considered 'Eastern Europe.' The term 'Central Europe' is a modern one, but is definitely more historically correct, as this video illustrates. You should know that Hungarians generally don't have a problem with using the terms interchangeably when talking about themselves. Like if I was talking about something the V4 was doing I'd use Central Europe but if I was talking about differences in political opinions in Hungary, Poland, Romania and the Ukraine compared to British, German and French I'd use Eastern Europe. Hope that helps.

@@blazingion Even then there are important political differences between "Central-Eastern Europe" i.e. the countries which were merely client states of the USSR, and the countries which formed parts of it (mostly Belarus and Ukraine - the Baltic states complicate the picture - they're a case apart).
