Yes. Also the Budapest subway is great.

>>only capable country in the EU right now
Bullshit, unless you've got a pretty damn idiosyncratic definition of 'capable'.
>>
>>562782

Yes, it actually was a very strong power at the time. If you look at this map here, you'll see how big they were just prior to the Ottoman invasion:

Their King from 1458 to 1490, Matthias Corvinus, was an iconic Renaissance ruler, who based his rule off of Plato's Republic.

The French also considered them a very useful ally against the HRE:

Mohács was super hopeless, Louis II's army did not stand a chance.
Hungary was under financial embargo at the time, the kings jewish treasuser practically robbed the little left, and several of his vassals purposely did not send their levies. Even Suleiman was suprised how easy they won.
