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....
An interesting fact from the Árpád dynasty is that King Andrew I had a bastard son, George. He knew he wasn't going to inherit anything and he decided to travel around and adventure. He settled down in the Scottish highlands and founded the legendary Drummond clan.
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
my dad's parents came from Hungary to America in 1907..... my grandfather's name was Geza....
@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.
I love your work! Hungary is a mystic country well known for brave people, beautiful women, very successful scientist and inventors, good food and wine! I recommend to visit it!
I actually passed through Hungary twice. Im a romanian btw
And paprika lol.
Great chart!
However, you missed the fact that Wladyslaw III of Poland was given the crown of Hungary in 1440 to his death in 1444 at the battle of Varna. This was however contested by Ladislaus the Posthumous and his mother in a civil war. After the death of the king of Poland, the Hungarian crown passed to Ladislaus.
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.
Corrections:
1:55 The accent on the é is missing from Grand Prince Géza, as well as on the Á in Álmos (brother of Coloman).
2:19 The grandson of Árpád should be called Taksony instead of Taksong.
1:55 It is debated if King Samuel was Stephen's brother-in-law or nephew, as these have the same name in Latin. However, as his children were too young to fight in the battle after which he died (all under 15 according to records), it is more likely that Samuel is a generation younger than Stephen, thus, his nephew.
Otherwise: finally, the family tree I have been waiting for!
Poland & Hungary really have a lot of common history, huh? Polak, Węgier and all that💗
Btw when you will do the Polish Monarchy family tree will you also look at the elected kings or only hereditary monarchs?
I'll be doing the elected monarchs too
@@UsefulCharts cool! thanks for the reply😊
Kingdom of Croatia was not conquered but it entered personal union with Kingdom of Hungary. Thats why Hungarian kings have separate coronation for Croatia.
@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
My great grandmother came to the States from Hungary on a ship called the Pannonia. I had no idea the name meant anything.
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 :)
Ok, so I had no idea how linked the Hungarian, Polish and Bohemian thrones were. This video was incredibly insightful, I can't wait for the eastern European poster!
I REALLY can't wait for Poland
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
I believe that Jadwiga, the daughter of King Louis the Great, should be titled King Jadwiga (not Queen).
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". :)
Central Europe, CENTRAL Europe, not Eastern Europe
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. :)))))
Great video, thanks!
We always say that the Árpád dynasty was extent in 1301.
And this is true on the male line.
But one can see from your video that the blood-line comes back thanks to different Hungarian princesses married to different foreign kings.
Also, you mention that all Spanish kings has Árpád's blood in their veines. And if you check it, even the Habsburgs are partly descendants of Árpád!
So, it would be quite interesting to follow the flow.
To see a tree where the "green line" goes by the weddings to the different royal houses of Europe.
You should make a Bulgarian Monarchy one! It will be interesting :)
True!!!😎👍
@Guru Charan Are you stupid? It does.
One tiny correction. Ladislav didn't conquer Croatia. The fact is his sister Helen (Jelena) was married to Croatian King Zvonimir. She was the daughter of King Bela I and the sister of King Geza I too. After King Zvonimir died and how his and Helen's son Radovan died before the Croatian Kingdom was without King. Helen calls her brother Ladislav I to take the Croatian crown. Part of the Croatian nobles didn't agree and that is how a civil war for Croatian crown started. To make a long story short those rebelled Croatian nobles in the end lost and with rowed to Bosnia, part of the Croatian kingdom. Bosnia was a mountain region with bad communication infrastructure perfect to rebellion and hard to establish low and order. So even Bosnia was officially part of Croatian kingdom recognized by Rome, practical power was in Hands of local Croatian nobles who didn't recognize Hungarian crown as Croatian too. It stayed like that till Bosnia was conquered by the Ottoman empire.
Point is there is no conquest of Croatia, It was official Hungarian and Croatian personal union under the same crown. Ladislav I was Hungarian and Croatian King. Croatia was stayed separate and recognized the country in that way all the way to 1918.
Jadwiga was meant to be queen of Hungary and Mary to be queen of Poland, but polish nobles didn't want Mary on throne because she was married to Sigismund and if she would became queen Brandenburg and Poland will came into personal union (Sigismund was ruler of Brandenburg before he became king of Bohemia and Hungary)
An interesting fact about King Bela I was that he literally died on the throne... since his throne collapsed under him and he died from the injuries resulting from that
Can you make one for southern Slavic nations, Serbia, Bulgaria, Croatia, Bosnia, Montenegro. Maybe you could even add Albania in the same video, but it's mostly going to be Croatian, Serbian and Bulgarian
It’s interesting to see how the crowns of the HRE, Germany, Bohemia, Hungary and Austria were extremely interconnected through marriage, cognatic primogeniture and election. I’m truly fascinated by the relations that all the Kings of Hungary had with one another and how their succession to the throne came to be.
No way I have been waiting for this since I subscribed 2 years ago 😍
Hungary is in Central Europe, actually in the heart of Europe. They say East only because of the socialism regime that is left behind unfortunately. So please note that Hungary is NOT Eastern Europe. Always been central and always will be.
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
Matthias Rex from the house Corvinus is a popular monarch only because he lives in the Hungarian folklore as the Just King who punished the bad nobles and rewarded the "good" commoners, legend has it he often dressed as a commoner so he could sneak out and see how his people lived... And also he was kind of a tyrant, who over taxed the country waged wars against the western neighbours, occupied Wien and the better half of the Czech Kingdom with his infamous mercenary army the black army... Which army later after his death sacked half the country, his father John was a great military leader who protected the country from the Ottomans and died after his great victory in Nanforfehervar, now Belgrád
Calling Poland and Hungary "Eastern Europe" might be quite dangerous
Yes, but countries stuck under the iron curtain in the 20th century, are mostly called Eastern Europeans.
@@bluebull852 And that's wrong.
Loved this! Feel like we don't get exposed to a lot of Eastern European history, so this was super interesting. Can't wait to see the rest of the Eastern European chart and watch more Eastern European monarchies family tree videos!
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.
Good video mate! Just 2 things to mention:
1) Zoltán's son is called Taksony, not Taksong
2) Michael wasn't the father of Andrew and Béla. Michael had a son named Vazul and he was the father of them. (so they weren't cousins of Stephen but first cousins once removed)
Thanks. I'll be making changes.
Hungarians : László
Evryone else : StAnIsLaV
An old english version of the name is Lancelot
Nope. László = Ladislaus /Wladislaw. Stanislaw has a Hungarian form (rarely used): Szaniszló.
@@aquincum9482 it absolutely is not. It's like saying that Steven is a variant of Sebastian.
@@aquincum9482 I mean, do you even know where the Lancelot myth originated, and how it has nothing to do with an Eastern Slavic name like Laszlo/Vladislav?
I'm actually a descendant of these dynasties, so this video is close to my heart. Thank you! ❤️
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.

Hungary didnt conquer Croatia it was a Union between Croatian houses and Arpad house, because last croatian king died in 1102, there was war but Croatia wasnt conquerd as you here sead. And when the house of Capet Anjou was on throne it was because of croatian house of Šubić (late known as Zrinski) at the time most powerfull in bouth countries called Napolitanian King to send his grandson Ladislav to be king of Hungary and Croatia. One more time that was Personal union and king had two crowns one of Stephen I. and one of Tomislav Trpimirovic first king of Croatia. All kings from Koloman I. had to be crowned in Hungary and Croatia in Stolni Biograd town on croatian coastline.
It was a real union after Croatia was conquered...
@@jutube90 It wasn't conquered as conquered kingdoms had their lands seized and divided among the conquerors. See Norman England. In Croatia nothing actually changed (Croatian nobles kept their lands and titles) which proves it was not conquered. The war that lasted 1095-1102 was a successions war for the throne and Arpad dynasty won against a counter-claimant Petar/Peter of the Snacic tribe.
@@jutube90 It was not a conquer. It is called personal union when two countries share the same ruler. It is a dynastic link between the countries: both have their souvereignity in inner affairs but take on joint enterprises concerning international politics which was exclusively determined by the ruler.

I'm a bit disappointed to see not the proper names. Emeric should be Imre, Stephen is István, Lasislaus is László, Jadwiga is Hedvi, Solomon is Salamon... Hungarians are not Slavs, our King's names weren't spelled that way.
But I'm happy that there is a channel discussing the history of the "minorities of the modern world politics". In their times, these countries were the dominating ones, just history led things on certain ways..
Keep up the fantastic work! :)
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! :)
How many saints you wanna have?

Why not all? ... Yeah we can do that... 😇
I love these Hungarian names. Great vid as always! The pre Christian dynasty actually ruled for a long time.
But who is hungarian?
@@predacorneliu Árpád, st. Stephen, Béla, basically the house of Árpád
Actually there was strong opposition in Hungary against King Ladislaus and they decided to choose polish king Władysław III for their ruler. He reigned in 1440 - 1444 until his death in the battle of Varna ( this is why he is known in Poland as Warneńczyk).
Forever Love for Poland

An interesting addition to the family tree could be Clementia (or Clémence) of Hungary (1293-1328), the sister of Charles I, as she was both the wife and the mother of French kings. She was queen consort of France and Navarre (1315-1316) as the second wife of king Louis X, who died in June 1316 while she was pregnant. Five months later she gave birth to a boy, king John I of France and Navarre, who lived only 5 days.

Great video on explaining the Hungarian Royal Family Tree. Btw, King Wladyslaw III of Poland, first son of Wladyslaw II, was also briefly the King of Hungary from 1440/1441 to 1444 as Vladislaus I. He was offered the crown of Hungary and accepted it but then he died in 1444 during the Battle of Varna after reigning 3 years in Hungary.
You forgot to mention that in 1222 Andrew the 2nd the weak monarch had written a golden bulla which was the Hungarian nobility's "magna charta" if you like...
Any chance of including the Lithuanian royals on the chart? Some interesting interactions between Lithuania, Poland, Teutonic Knights, Rus, and Hungary.
Definitely going to be some Lithuanians in there...
@@UsefulCharts Ulaszlo /Wladyslaw III (Warnenczyk) not mentioned though, what a shame
🇭🇺Hungarian history is very rich🇭🇺
the fact that I'm watching this to learn more about the arpads so I can roleplay better in ck3 as them is funny to me.
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.
Wonderful presentation! Very informative. As I am of Croatian heritage, I am grateful for the clarification of who ruled whom and when. One question: Is it possible to buy a chart just with the Hungarian and Croatian monarchs and the Hapsburgs?
There are several mistakes. First King Attila !!! The Hungarian crown was not given by the Vatican !!! Hungarian kings were sacred kings independent of the Vatican, they also appointed bishops !!! The house kings of Árpád were related to the bloodline of Attila.
Look in the Vatican documents, it is not mentioned that the Pope gave it !!!
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.
None of these monarchies (and current countries) are Eastern Europe. They have western (roman catholic) religion, they have western culture, art and architecture, they use western (latin) alphabet... they are culturaly closest to Austrians and Germans and you can also clearly see it on this family tree. Only thing that made them "eastern" was that Stalin installed communism there and USSR opressed them with aproval of UK and the US. Please stop calling them eastern europe, it is quite offensive, because it reflects situation of 40 years of opression, occupation and devastation of these countries.
I also realized that you failed to mention that King Bela II was blind and was known as Bela the blind.
@@mrico523 and as I know he was the king of Jerusalem
2 things about the polish part: Bolesław I ( Chrobry) was duke of Poland from 992 to 1025 when he became the king for around 3 months and he was also duke of bohemia from 1002 to 1003, next Queen Jadwiga had the title of king of Poland, not the queen that's because of our nobles decision, it's a pretty complicated topic but in short she was king even if she was a woman, normally in china or western Europe she would be Queen but not in Poland so please change it. I'm waiting for polish royal family tree episode & I hope u will get this mess right even if it's hard to understand.
Oh, I missed one thing too, King Wladyslaw III (Warneńczyk) was king of Hungry from 1440 to his death near Varna while fighting Ottomans.
Thanks for the tips. Will make changes.
Sprawdź sobie na wiki tytulaturę Jadwigi, to się trochę zdziwisz.
The Anjou Charles was called Caroberto and under his and his son's rule the Hungarian kingdom's gold mines gave more than 90% of Europe's gold at the time that's why they were so powerful...
Great video and nice charts!
Ladislaus I didn't conquered whole Croatia, only Slavonia and was expelled from Croatia proper. His nephew Coloman was acknowledged and crowned as first King of Croatia from House of Arpad in 1105 AD.
I suppose Sigismund should be green not gold/yellow as he became king of Hungary first, his royal court was in Buda (even after became Holy Roman Emperor) and never in Prague.
Well, I guess Hunyadi must have been a nightmare to say out loud. Great video, thank you so much
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
The Gyula was the military leader and the Kende was the religious leader and we don't know for sure but probably Arpad's father Álmos (funny fact álmos also means sleepy) took the power as he was the military leader the Gyula and ended the dual leadership.
I'm pretty sure that Władysław III, who appears at this chart as king of Poland was also king of Hungary
Thank you so much, I was waiting for this!!
Bohemia, Poland nad HUngary... Eastern Europe? Really? Really?
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).
A Byzantine/Hungarian combined kingdom?? That would have been quite remarkable.
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.
at that point when ladislaus I ruled, hungary was established as a major power for at least a century if not 2. if you have a force that plunders any part of europe however they like for more than 50 years, i don't see how they aren't considered to be a major power.
1:58 The pronunciation is koor-sahn, he was the religious leader.
15:21 It should be Szapolya.
According to wikipedia the spouse of John Zapolya was Isabella Jagielon. Anne was a wife of Stephen Bathory.
Thanks. I'll fix it.
Sigismund and Mary did have a child. At the time of Mary's death she was pregnant with a son, both died due too an accident while on a hunting trip.
Ah yes: "an accident"
11:45 Jadwiga was crowned as "king" not as queen
Turul Dynasty
This is a great addition since is not enough attention give to the rest of Central Europe. This is probably one of the few available the English reviews on UA-cam!
One quibble: why does the House of Habsburg not begin in this chart with King Albert and King Ladislaus (who are both after all Habsburgs, as well as Elizabeth who married King Casimir)?
Mostly because of space but I might change it.
Would you be able to do an AH of Belated as both King of Hungary and Byzantine emperor?
Just as an aside, Kingdom Come: Deliverance takes place during Wenceslas IV and Sigusmunds reign if anybody wants to check it out, great game
Charles IV, King of Bohemia and Holy Roman Emperor, had a long and successful reign...
Tip for Polish Monarchy chart. Bolesław I was also duke of Bohemia trough his mother, that being Dobrava, daughter of Duke Bolesław the Cruel. I don't know how detailed will be your chart but there were many marriages between polish kings or dukes and hungarian or bohemian princesses:
Duke Bolesław I wed some unknown hungarian princess, duke Mieszko III the Old wed Elisabeth of Hungary (no one is sure whose daughter she was), Kazimierz II the Just married bohemian princess Helena, Henry II the Pious married Anne of Bohemia, Bolesław the Pious wed Jolenta Helena of Hungary, Bolesław the Chaste married saint Kinga of Hungary, Leszek the Black wed princess Agrippina (technically Rurikovich but she was more hungarian than kievian princess, she was sister of queen of Bohemia Kunigunda - wife of Ottokar II), Bolesław II of Masovia married daughter of Ottokar II - Kunigunda, Bolesław III the Generous wed bohemian princess Margaret (or Małgorzata), Henry I of Jawor married her half-sister Agnes, Fiderick I of Liegnitz wed princess Ludmilla of Podebrady, and Sigismund the Old married Barbara Zapolya. I might have missed some. The rest are marriages with Habsburg princesses (Elisabeth, Catherine, Elisabeth, Cecilia Renata, Eleonora and Maria Josepha).
this is so useful, thank you! please make a video on kings in Croatia
Hungarian monarch was of Turkish origin,Arpad was an Onogur Turk
Ladislau??? László!
Shouldn’t Sigusmund be in green though since that was his first and arguably main title? Most of his life as a king was as king of Hungary, he only became king of Bohemia and Holy Roman Emperor during the last decade or so of his life.
Why Saint Ladislaus? He was Hungarian, not Polish or slavic, so Saint Laszlo. Similarly King Colomon ... his name was Kalman .. with accents that I can't do on my keyboard. And Imre ... what language is Emeric? not Hungarian.
Awesome video,I just want to put it out that, King Andrew I and King Béla I are actually not the cousins of Saint Stephen I,theres an another individual called "Vazul",who was the father of King Andrew I and King Béla I.BTW I'm from Hungary,and I'm pretty happy that you made this video,keep up the good work! :)
I'm Hungarian, and I have royal ties to the Árpád dynasty! Thank you for making this video!
Half Polish and some tests say the same for me. My family is from Southern Poland too.
@@lumina5how do you know that?
Suggestion: Could you do a Southeast Asian monarchy next? Like Majapahit or Brunei? Thanks 🇵🇭
The Brueni royals shouldn't exist
I do agree.. Majapahit, Sriwijaya, Thai Royal Family, and others..
Sulu Sultans are also interesting and their descendants still exist today and actually invaded Borneo in 2013 despite their country not existing
You made some mistakes mainly in part of chart about Poland history:
1. We don't know name of daughter of polish king Mieszko II (she is sometimes named as a Richeza or Adelajda).
2. Jadwiga was king not a queen of Poland (she is also known as a Saint of Catholic Church and patron of Poland).
3. Poland king Władysław III (known as "Warneńczyk") was also king of Hungary. He died in the battle of Varna protecting Hungray from Turkish invasion.
4. Daughter of polish king Sigismund I who marrried king John from house of Zapolya was Isabella not Anne. Anne wsa wife of other hungarian nobelman Stephen Batory, duke of Transylvania and King of Poland.
Sorry for all spelling errors and my English.
Yes. Others have pointed these out as well. I will need fixing them before I do the Poland video.
Władysław didn't die protecting Hungary, he died while invading Ottomans after breaking the truce.
Still waiting Serbian monarchs. Also one tip. There is connection with medieval Serbian monarchs and modern. I would like to see in chart.
I dare you to do the Polish mon(an)archy next!😋
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
John Hunyadi was unlaw child of Sigismund!
If Matthias would not have been royal blood from Atila king's family, he could not have been a king!!!
Zapolya house was also Atila king's family (official name today: Arpad House).
In John of Hunedoara
Actually the lands controlled by John & John Sigismund Zápolya were turned into the Principality of Transylvania, which didn't become under Habsburg rule until 1699/1690/1701/1713. (depends on how you count it).
this spelling is so weird for us :) we know it as Szapolyai family (I'm Hungarian)

9:39 Károly Róbert know as Caroberto and he make the Visegrad unio with kingdom of Bohemia, kingdom of Hungary and the kindom of Poland. In the 21 century the members: Hungary, Slovakia, Poland and the Chez republic (The Visegrád union was created in order to avoid the overtaxed Austrian roads in the medieival world).
thank you so much for making this video :)
How about a video on all kings that ruled hungary right from BC. I would specially like to know about how huns and then magyars settled there.
The Huns were called in by the Roman emperors to help against the barbarians at the end of the 4th century
Totally thought that said "King Matthias Coronavirus" for a second there.
In hungarian both J and LY are pronounced as a Y in english.
I think that Władysław and Ladislaus are the same name and Jadwiga is Hedwig. Still great work. I really enjoyed it.
Wow good job man😇😇🤗😇😇🤗😇😇🤗🤗😇😇😇🤗😇😇😇😇😇😇😇😇😇😇😇😇😇😇😇😇🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗😇😇😇😇😇😇🤗🤣😇😇
Correctly Carpathian Basin not Pannonian Basin. Central Europe, not Eastern Europe. The Hungarians WERE Christians before Saint Stephen. They were not chased by any other people, and they were not looking for a new home. They came BACK.Known as "Secundus ingressus" It was a planned migration well organised re-take of the land. Attila was the first king of the HUNgarians. All Hungarian Chronicles of the early medieval ages mention this as fact. Also János Hunyadi was an illegitimate son of Sigismund (the king was a handsome man and loved women), so Matthias Corvinus was a legitimate king and he was poisoned to get rid of. Just to mention a few things we were tought differently..The History we know today is a nice forgery of the Habsburgs and others of the last 400 years.
the hungarian cronicles are fiction. Those are claiming like father-son relations between people who are actually were separated by 400 years. So no.
Congratulations!You are so ridiculous!Only one point to touch, I have:The huns were coming from China neighbouhood-hyong-nu- and the magyars were finno-ugric population ,pastoral people looking for grazing land.
I would have started with Attila.
@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.
How? We don't even know the descendants of Attila. He has no continuity with the Magyars in Pannonia. Their empire crumbled and the Magyars wouldn't come into Central Europe until the 9th Century...
@@Arthur-pc1eh Genetics is the master. You can't say nonsense because it's irrefutable. Hungarians have carried out international genetic testing in many places and in many cemeteries - it is undeniable. It wouldn't hurt to find out before you get smart.

CENTRAL EUROPE JESSSUS. But no seriously, Central Europe.
Well, if Hungary isn't Central Europe, nothing is.
Literally
Yes, common mistake, often made by British or Americans. It's only when you're talking about such countries like Ukraine, Bulgaria , Serbia, Russia( orthodox nations) that you're in Eastern Europe. Bohemia, Hungary ,Croatia etc were NEVER called Eastern in history until recently after ww2 and their unfortunate control by eastern communist powers.
Tamás Molnár they are relative terms, but I would eir on the side of central being more apt than east, though it is not cut and past. I would say central is more apt since most of its history, religious, political, cultural, etc has more to do with German lands/eastern Slavic lands, usually considered Central European, and not as much with the eastern Slavs. Though, geographical, one could categorize it as either eastern or central.
But again, vague term.
Not a royal family, but, please could you do a family tree for the Dark television series on Netflix? That thing would be complicated.
Me, getting this in my recommendations when pretty much everything else I watch is either gaming and/or memes: Fascinating.
Wasn't Władsław the III king of Hungry for a while ?
Hi from Portugal
Who would be king of Portugal today is a very difficult question you should do it
It is simple, the duke of Braganza.
He said it in the end of the royal Portuguese family tree
I would have appreciated if their hungarian name was used... Not Saint Stephen but Szent István.....
The lasts king is Orban
It's King Matthias Hunyadi, he himself never used Corvinus.
I love that you did this. Thank you.
6:40 I laughed because not to be rude sorry but it sounded like America
"America" came from the name "Amerigo", the Italian equivalent of "Emeric" or "Imre".
Apparently I am related to Bela III. As an adoptee that’s one of the only relatives I know of. 🤷🏽♀️
is there anyone here looking for the countess bathory ?
