Recently, we have talked about Prince Bethlen Gábor of Transylvania so I decided to write a general article about him on my page.
Bethlen Gábor (1580 – 1629) was a Protestant uncrowned King of Hungary (1620–21) and a Prince of Transylvania (1613–29) and a Duke of Opole (1622–25) who led a war against the House of Habsburg in Royal Hungary. He was the one who turned Transylvania into the famous „Fairy Garden” as it was called at that time.
Read more about his life on my page, learn about the wealth and power of the Principality, not to mention the famous religious tolerance. I've included the text of the famous Patent in which he awarded full freedom to all the Jewish people living in Transylvania that was a unique document in Europe:
