House of History | The Battle of Tiszabecs, 1703 ⚔️ Rákóczi's War of Independence (Part 1) @HoH | Uploaded October 2022 | Updated October 2024, 4 hours ago.
May 1703.
It had been four years since the Peace of Karlowitz ended the Great Turkish War. The Ottoman Empire yielded the entirety of Hungary and large parts of Transylvania to the Habsburg Dynasty.
In Poland, a group of Hungarian Kuruc-rebels requested Hungary's once-richest man, the exiled Prince Ferenc Rakoczi II of Transylvania, to lead their rebellion. Following this visit, Rakoczi declared that "All nobility and non-noble citizens of Hungary" should rise against Habsburg rule. The Prince faced one of the mightiest dynasties Europe had ever seen. Initially, with nothing more than a rag-tag bunch of poorly equipped peasants and freebooters. Against all odds, his subsequent rebellion lasted eight years, capturing most of the Kingdom. It became known as Rakoczi's War of Independence.
