[[File:Miklós Horthy.jpg|thumb|250px|Official portrait of Horthy]]
'''Miklós Horthy de Nagybánya''' (June 18, 1868 – February 9, 1957) was a [[conservative]] [[Hungary|Hungarian]] naval officer and statesman who served as the country's regent from 1920 to 1944, until he was forced out of power by [[Third Reich|Nazi Germany]]. Horthy lived through a turbulent period of history, which saw the dissolution of the [[Austria-Hungary|Austro-Hungarian Empire]]; the loss of two-thirds of Hungary's territory; the rise of [[fascism]], [[Nazism]], and [[communism]]; and two world wars. Horthy guided Hungary through these events, pursued conservative and [[anti-communist]] policies, and strengthened his nation's place in Europe.
