For centuries Hungary was under boot of the Muslim Ottomans. Then came the Austrians. Then came the Soviets. It’s worth noting that on Oct. 23, 1956 Hungarians rose in rebellion against their Soviet occupiers. It failed, of course. But it does show the Hungarian spirit. Oct. 23rd is now a national holiday in Hungary.

Hungarians remember their history.

At least the Austrians gave them equal billing!
