Hungary

Hngary, offilicially Magyar Köztársaság (the Republic of Hungary) is a Parlimentary Republic located on the western border of Eastern Europe and on the eastern border of the historical Celtral Europe, lying in the Carpathian basin. The capital (and largest city) is Budapest and Magyar (Hungarian) is the official language. Following a Celtic (after c. 450 BC) and a Roman (9 BC - c. 4th century) period, the foundation of Hungary was laid in the late Ninth Century by the Magyar chieftain Árpád, whose great grandson István ascended to the throne with a crown sent from Rome in 1000. The Kingdom of Hungary existed with minor interruptions for 946 years, and at various points was regarded as one of the cultural centers of the Western world. It was succeeded by a Communist era (1947-1989) during which Hungary gained widespread international attention regarding the Revolution of 1956 and the seminal move of opening its border with Austria in 1989, thus accelerating the collapse of the Eastern Bloc.

Hungary is a member of OECD, NATO, EU and a Schengen state. The official language is Hungarian (also known as Magyar), which forms part of the Finno-Ugric family.

Hungarian cuisine is a notable part of the country's culture, with dishes such as goulash (gulyás or gulyásleves) being a mainstay. Healthy brown bread is made from four to six different grains and is sprinkled with sesame seeds, sunflower seeds and rolled oats. Kifli is a wildly popular crescent roll made from reform dough. Beer and wine are also minastays and the Tokaj white wine is a Hungarian classic.
