context_page_description: The Hungarian invasions of Europe took place in the ninth and tenth centuries,
  the period of transition in the history of Europe in the Early Middle Ages, when the territory of the former Carolingian Empire was threatened by invasion from multiple hostile forces, the Magyars from the east, the Viking expansion from the north and the Arabs from the south.
