The Hungarian Revolution of 1956 (October 23 — November 10) was a spontaneous nationwide revolt against the Communist dictatorship and Soviet domination. It began as a student demonstration which attracted thousands as it marched through central Budapest to the Parliament building. A student delegation entered the Radio Building attempting to broadcast their demands was detained. When their release was demanded by the demonstrators, they were fired upon by the State Security Police (ÁVH) from within the building. The news spread quickly and disorder and violence erupted throughout the capital.
Public discussion about this revolution was suppressed in Hungary for over 30 years; many facts are still disputed and many personal animosities remain unresolved.
