subject: Hungary Real Estate [print this page] Hungary is a landlocked country in Central Europe. It is located in the Carpathian Basin, surrounded by Slovakia to the north, Ukraine and Romania to the east, Serbia and Croatia to the south, south-west of Slovenia and Austria to the west. Hungary is a member of the European Union, NATO, OECD, the Visegrd Group and is a Schengen state. The official language is Hungarian, also known as Magyar, which is part of the Uralic family and is the most widely spoken non-Indo-European language in Europe.
A great power until the end of World War I, Hungary lost over 70 percent of its territory, together with a third of its ethnic population, and all of its ports under Treaty of Trianon. The kingdom was followed by a fascist regime, and then communist era (1947-1989) when Hungary has received wide international attention during the 1956 revolution and the historic opening of its border with Austria in 1989, thus accelerating the collapse of the Eastern bloc. The current form of government is a parliamentary republic, which was established in 1989. Today, Hungary is a high income economy and a regional leader in some respects.
Hungary is one of the thirty most popular tourist destinations in the world, attracting 8.6 million tourists a year. The country has the largest cave system of thermal water in the world and boasts the second largest thermal lake (Lake Hvz), as well as the largest lake in Central Europe (Lake Balaton), and the largest natural grassland in Europe (Hortobgy).
Just over half of the Hungarian landscape consists of flat to rolling plains of the Pannonian Basin: the most important areas are the Little Hungarian Plain in the west and the Great Hungarian Plain in the east. The highest point above sea level in the latter is only 183 meters (600 feet).
