Miklós Horthy

Ő Főméltósága a Magyar Királyság Kormányzója

"His Serene Highness the Regent of the Kingdom of Hungary"

About Me: My name is Admiral Miklos Horthy (but you should call me His Serene Highness the Regent of the Kingdom of Hungary), and I'm almost one hundred and forty-one years old (but, then again, I died fifty-two years ago at age eighty-eight). During the First World War, I was the commander-in-chief of the Austro-Hungarian Navy. (Jealous?) However, WWII caused a few problems for me: in the beginning, Nazi Germany and I were tight. (We were so tight, Germany and Hungary practically played putt-putt golf on Saturdays.) Then, I dunno... I just got an ookey feeling. Y'know what I'm talking about? We started drifting... (In putt-putt terms, it's like Germany giving Hungary the pink ball after we specifically asked for green.) And then you'll never guess what happened. Hitler and his bunch stormed in and took control of MY country! You can guess I was swearing like a sailor, so you can imagine why I announced Hungary would surrender and withdraw from the Axis powers. (Basically, Hungary backed out of team-putt.) Understandably, those jerks forced me to resign and placed me under arrest, holding me in Bavaria. (They discontinued my membership.) It wasn't until the Americans bailed me out that I was free again. In return for their gracious behavior, I appeared as a witness for the Nuremberg war-crimes trials. (I think they learned they'd better think twice before messing with His Highness.) I spent the rest of my life in Portugal with my family, but was buried back in Kendres after all of those awful Russians left my country. :)

My Moods: forgettable, flaky and vindicated :/

My Hobbies: planning out different battles and raids (did you know that I planned the raid that lead to the Otranto Straits action?), traveling (but I always like to come home to my hometown of Kendres, Hungary), horseback riding, boating, writing my memoirs and rotting (there's not a lot of things to do in a casket these days)

My Interests: right wing politics (none of that sissy liberal stuff), war tactics, ships, persuading people to buy my memoirs *cough*, meeting new people (except Hitler. You can guess we're not quite on good terms.), speeches... I love loads of things! Just not communism. Yuck.

My Heroes: I don't know if I can say I have any "heroes." I've been betrayed too many times. *sigh*

My Favorite Saying: "I feel no urge to say 'I told you so,' nor to express bitterness at the experiences that have been forced upon me. Rather, I feel wonder and amazement at the vagaries of humanity."-- Me

Aren't I just awesome? Oh, yeah. Hey, Axis powers: I told you so.

Friend and Foe Comments: (everyone's pages are locked, so I'll post here)

     Adolf Hitler--

Man, I thought we were cool for a while. But no. You just HAD to go and invade Hungary, didn't you?

     Franklin Roosevelt--

Hey, thanks for saving my butt back in WWII. I mean, I would say I owe you, but I think we're even, right? With the Nuremberg trials and all...

Catch you on the flip side. :)

     Heinrich Himmler--

I never liked you. I was an alliance, and you just come and invade my country? Lameo.

     Ivan Konev--

Ugh, you Russians. Do you realize how long you take to get out of other people's country? Typical...

     Rudolf Hess--

I don't know you personally, but, by association, I would spit on your grave. :)
