About this person
Around 850, Álmos became the first head of a loose federation of Hungarian tribes, though whether he held sacred or military authority remains disputed. For the first decade he acknowledged Khazar overlordship, but by 860 the Hungarians were moving independently. He guided them for nearly half a century as they prepared for westward expansion. Around 895, as his people began the conquest of the Carpathian Basin, he was killed in Transylvania - the chronicles agree on the fact, not the reason. The land became Hungary; Álmos did not live to see it.
