There were earlier "Kings" of Hungary. But the Hapsburg family's "staying power" and ability to get rid of their rivals, is beyond belief; and they gutted the Hungarian royal family very early on, by inter-marriage and other means.





Although it was officially called the dual-monarch, all real power was resident at Vienna.
