Template:CountryInfoGrand Principality of Hungary (AKA Duchy of Hungary) was a principality in medieval Europe. He was also the earliest documented 
Hungarian state in the 
Carpathian Basin, and was established in 895 or 896, following the 9th century 
Magyar invasion of the Carpathian Basin.
The principality as a warrior state with a new-found military might, and conducted vigorous raids ranging widely from 
Constantinople to central 
Spain.
History
After settling in the Carpathian Basin, the Magyars established a loose political entity called the Principality of Hungary in c. 895. This was not yet a kingdom but rather a confederation of Magyar tribes led by a ruling prince (Grand Prince).
During this time, the Magyars engaged in numerous raids across Europe, reaching far and wide. Three major 
Frankish imperial armies were defeated decisively by the Hungarians between 907 and 910. These raids were known as Hungarian invasions of Europe.
Hungary then succeeded in extending the de jure 
Bavarian-Hungarian border to the 
River Enns (until 955), and he was not attacked from this direction for 100 years after the Battle of 
Pressburg. The intermittent Hungarian campaigns lasted until 970, but two military defeats in 955 at the Battle of Lechfeld and in 970 at the Battle of 
Arcadiopolis marked a shift in the evolution of the Hungarian principality.

Byzantine Empire - He values gold and words as much as swords. He is also clever, always playing chess while the rest of us play war. Sometimes he paid me so I wouldn’t raid his clay. Other times, he offered me a seat at his fancy dinner tables. I’ll take their gold, but I don’t trust him one bit.
Enemies
East Francia & 
Holy Roman Empire - Arrogant, that's all I can say. 
Otto I beat me once and now they look down at me like a barbarian that needs civilizing.
