The Royal Hungarian Army in World War II

What about Hungary in World War II and its army? After the Treaty of Trianon Hungary was reduced to a small landlocked state. With Hitler’s rise to power the Hungarian Regent Miklós Horthy saw chances for recovering the so-called ’lost territories’. During the First and Second Vienna Award Hungary gained territory. Hungary also assisted in the Axis invasion of Yugoslavia and the invasion of the USSR. What about its army: the Royal Hungarian Army (Magyar Királyi Honvédség)? In this video more on Hungary’s WW2 army. What about Hungarian soldiers on the Eastern Front? I’ll also talk about the Arrow Cross Party (Ferenc Szálasi) and the climactic Battle of Budapest. And did you know there existed Hungarian Waffen-SS divisions? History Hustle presents: The Royal Hungarian Army in World War II.
