Kassa, Felvidék, former capital of the Upper Hungary region, now Košice, in #Slovakia after annexation at #Trianon. Part of Hungary since its founding in the 1200’s and over 75% Hungarian in 1910, it’s now just 3-4%, but the architectural and cultural legacy remains.

1) A short series on the 1956 Hungarian Revolution:

The 16 Points
On October 22, 1956, a group of Hungarian students compiled a list of sixteen points containing key national policy demands. They were read at the foot of the General Bem statue, a Polish hero of the 1848 War of Liberation, in solidarity with the anti-communist demonstrations in Poznan, Poland.

Following an anti-Soviet, pro-democracy protest in Budapest, the students attempted to enter the city's main broadcasting station to read their demands on the air. The students were detained, and while people gathered outside the broadcasting station to call for their release, the state security police fired on the unarmed crowd. News of the bloodshed set off the bloody 1956 Hungarian Revolution the next day.

Hungarians briefly regained their freedom, but when Russia learned the West would not intervene and come to the aid of the Revolutionary government, they re-invaded two weeks later with hundreds of thousands of troops and thousands of tanks, crushing the revolution. Tens of thousands were killed or wounded, including my mother, others were tortured. 200,000 refugees fled to the West.
