Revision as of 08:57, 17 April 2010 by Baxter9 (talk | contribs) (→Further reading: removed wrong publisher)(diff) ← Previous revision | Latest revision (diff) | Newer revision → (diff)The Natio Hungarica or Natio Hungarorum was a judiciary term to name the people of the Kingdom of Hungary irrespectively of their ethnic background. These terms should be viewed basically as indicators of geographic and not ethnic origin. Hungarian Kingdom was not a nation state in the modern sense of the word, a multiethnic country, inhabited by Hungarians, Croats, Germans, Romanians, Ruthenes, Serbs and Slovaks, in which the Hungarian nobility held the dominant position. This situation was not unique, the medieval period does not offer examples of nation states. An individual belonged to the "Hungarian Nation" if he or she resided under the authority of the King of Hungary (i.e., in the Lands of the Crown of Saint Stephen).
