EL IMPERIOESPAÑOL DEL DANUBIO 21. BUDAPEST 10. AVENIDA ANDRÁSSY.

Vienna, Prague, Budapest—three magnificent cities of an empire that destiny decreed would be an empire of Spanish blood, an empire that defended Christendom against Islam in these far reaches of Europe, that liberated Hungarians, Slovenes, Croats, and Bosnians. It integrated North Slavic peoples, Czechs, Slovaks, Moravians, Poles, Ukrainians, Hungarians, Germans, Italians, and South Slavs, forging an empire of mixed races, religions, and languages, that reached the highest peaks in philosophy, art, music, and culture in general. An empire that was Spain's legacy in the heart of Europe, the true heart of Europe, the Spanish Empire of the Danube.
