'''Magyars''' ({{lang-de|Magyaren}}) were a pagan Finno-Ugric tribe sometimes historically equated with the ethnic [[Hungary|Hungarian]] people. The descendants of the Magyars were the second-largest language group in the [[Habsburg Monarchy]] after the [[German language|German speakers]] and were the dominant nation state within the [[Kingdom of Hungary]].

===Raids===
The first supposed reference to the Magyars in war is in the 9th century. [[Muslim]] geographers recorded that the Magyars regularly attacked the neighboring East Slavic tribes, and took captives to sell to the Byzantine Empire at Kerch. There is some information about Hungarian raids (German: ''Ungarneinfälle'' or ''Ungarnstürme'') into the eastern [[Carolingian Empire]] in 862.

The Magyars are said to have defeated three [[Frankish]] imperial armies of the [[Holy Roman Empire]] between 907 and 910. In 907 they defeated the invading Bavarians near Brezalauspurc, laying parts of [[Germania]] open to Magyar raids. On 3 August 908 the Hungarians won the Battle of Eisenach, Thuringia. Egino, Duke of Thuringia was killed, along with Burchard, Duke of Thuringia and Rudolf I, Bishop of Würzburg. The Magyars defeated Louis the Child's united Frankish Imperial Army at the first Battle of Lechfeld in 910. Smaller units penetrated as far as [[Bremen]] (later a member of the [[Hanseatic League]]) in 915. In 919, after the death of Conrad I of Germany, the Magyars raided [[Saxony]], [[Lotharingia]] and [[West Francia]]. Between 917 and 925, the Magyars raided through Basel, [[Alsace]], [[Burgundy]], Provence and the Pyrenees. In 926, they ravaged Swabia and Alsace, campaigned through present-day [[Luxembourg]] and reached as far as the Atlantic Ocean.

In 933, a substantial Magyar army appeared in Saxony (the pact with the Saxons having expired) but was defeated by Henry the Fowler (''Heinrich I.'') at Merseburg. Magyar attacks continued against Upper Burgundy (in 935) and against Saxony (in 936). In 937, they raided [[Frankia]] as far west as Reims, Lotharingia, Swabia, Franconia, the Duchy of Burgundy and Italy as far as Otranto in the south. They attacked Bulgaria and the Byzantine Empire, reaching the walls of [[Constantinople]]. The Byzantines paid them a “tax” for 15 years. In 938, the Magyars repeatedly attacked Saxony. In 940, they ravaged the region of [[Rome]]. In 942, Hungarian raids on Spain, particularly in Catalonia, took place, according to Ibn Hayyan's work. The Battle of Lechfeld in 955 ([https://de.metapedia.org/wiki/Schlacht_auf_dem_Lechfeld ''Schlacht auf dem Lechfeld'']) south of Augsburg ([[Bavaria]]), in which the Germans (although German losses were heavy, especially losing [[Conrad, Duke of Lorraine|Konrad Herzog in Lothringen]]<ref>According to Widukind of Corvey: ''"Duke Conrad, the foremost of all in combat, suffering from battle fatigue caused by an unusually hot sun, loosened the straps of his armor to catch his breath when an arrow pierced his throat and killed him instantly."''</ref>), led by King [[Otto I the Great]], annihilated the Magyars (losing the majority of their 8,000–10,000 horse archers and infantry), finally checked their expansion and the rest fled the [[Kingdom of Germany]], although raids on the [[Byzantine Empire]] continued until 970.
