The Revolution No One Talks About

In this video we talk about the history of the Hungarian Revolution of 1848. While inspired by the French Revolution and many others, Hungary's revolution was a struggle for freedom, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness. And today plays a crucial role in the country's history and culture.

This is actually an important topic in Poland during history classes ^^

Give this guy that Hungarian passport, he really deserves it

I'm proud to say this revolution is remembered in Poland! Actually, I come from Tarnów, the home city of our common hero of 1848 - Józef Bem/Bem József! :D

Also, one more thing is that the Hungarians surrendered specifically to Russians to symbolically say that they needed the help of another empire to beat down the Revolution, and they couldn't do it on their own

Man, your sense of humor is top notch. This should be a Hungarian History 101 in official curriculums 😂

Fun fact: When Petőfi sang the "Nemzeti dal" at the crowd he said (also it was a rainy day) " *These cowards don't dare to soak their heads, so how would they fight for their country?* " and almost immediately all of the umbrellas were closed, signaling they are ready to fight for their country.

elgondolkoztató hogy egy külföldi többet tud a magyar történelemről mint néhány magyar. <3

Szechenyi was not a politician, he was the richest hungarian. I'm mentioning this because this guy did sincerely want to make a difference by going into politics and not to make a career and money in politics which is the case for 99% of politicians. He donated huge amounts of money, i mean real donations and not just "pledge" to do it as some rich ppl today 😃

9:15 Small mistake: The Holy Roman Empire had been abolished decades earlier. There was only the German Confederation, which still included Austria until the Brothers' war

Köszi János, kiváló videó, mint mindig. Ezen is betegre röhögtem magam. :D

As a Hungarian, I find this content entertaining. It feels good to hear about my country, since it's sort of forgotten on the internet, and no one ever talks about it.

Yeey another video about Hungary history, here in Brasil we only study the revolution of 1956 and Horthy Miklos (Katonája Vagyok), regards from BR :)

Not from europe, I'm from southeast asia, but damn - Hungarian FolkTales was an absolute banger of an animated kids' show even for an adult like me lol!!!

As someone from Slovakia it's interesting to be learning about this exact topic in school right now.

*Brief history adjustment:*

Many things were different from the history we teach at school.

1. Petőfi never went to the museum on March 15th, he only wrote the POEM, "Nemzeti dal". Despite it's name it never was a song.

2. The hungarians actually did a number on the Habsburg army in Spring, claiming many victories. We call it "The Graceful Spring Campaign".

3. Kossuth was a great radicalist, however, he never was a great politician. Practically saying he was the "Haha revolution goes brr" guy.

4. Kossuth was forced out my a**. He fled the country even before the war ended, and then blamed a hungarian general Görgei Artúr for the capitulation. Later on Kossuth tried the same thing, the only thing he was good at: recruiting. To no avail. Since he just spat nonsense throughout the world in the following years about a united Central-Europe and a retaliation against Austria. The most infuriating thing about this is that Görgei was stigmatized as a traitor for decades for saving his remaining men with capitulation. Batthány was executed while he wasn't even head of the state at the time. So basically everyone was punished except Kossuth.

8:25 "as you can imagine Hungary was in a rough spot"

*rewinds through 1300 years to find when Hungary was not in a rough spot*

Just wanted to say that 19th century liberals were actually based, and way diferent from what we call libs today.
