Rákosi Mátyás
Rákosi Mátyás was a prominent Hungarian communist politician who played a significant role in the establishment of the Hungarian People's Republic after World War II. Born in 1892, he became the General Secretary of the Hungarian Communist Party and effectively ruled Hungary from 1945 to 1956. His leadership was marked by strict Stalinist policies, including widespread political repression, economic mismanagement, and an emphasis on heavy industry. Rákosi's regime faced significant opposition and was characterized by its authoritarian nature. He was eventually ousted during the Hungarian Revolution of 1956 and lived the remainder of his life in exile, returning to Hungary only after the fall of communism.
