Semi-legendary rulers before the Conquest Portrait The Kingdom of Hungary existed as a country from 1920 to 1946, officially represented the Hungarian monarchy, but in reality there was no king. After World War I in 1918, King Charles IV "renounced participation" in state affairs, but did not abdicate. The paternal lineage of the Árpád dynasty came to end in 1301 with the death of King Andrew III of Hungary, and all of the subsequent kings of Hungary (with the exception of King Matthias Corvinus) were cognatic descendants of the Árpád dynasty. The Árpád dynasty ruled the Carpathian Basin for four hundred years, influencing almost all of Europe through its extensive dynastic connections. Therefore, since the 13th century the dynasty has often been referred to as the "Kindred of the Holy Kings". The descendants of the dynasty gave the world the highest number of saints and blesseds from one family. Christianity was adopted as the state religion for the Kingdom of Hungary by King Saint Stephen and the kings of the Árpád dynasty used the title of the apostolic king. The Árpád dynasty, the male-line descendants of Grand Prince Árpád, ruled Hungary continuously from 895 to 1301. The Kingdom of Hungary existed from 1000–1001 with the coronation of King Saint Stephen.
The Hungarian Grand Principality established around 895, following the 9th-century Hungarian conquest of the Carpathian Basin.
