== Government and politics ==

Hungary is a unitary parliamentary republic. The president serves as head of state, while executive authority is exercised by the prime minister and cabinet.

Legislative authority belongs to the unicameral [[National Assembly of Hungary|National Assembly]]. Its members are elected for four-year terms. The National Assembly passes legislation, approves the state budget, and elects several senior state officials.

The Constitutional Court reviews legislation and constitutional questions. Ordinary courts are organised into district courts, regional courts, regional courts of appeal, and the Curia, which serves as the highest court.

Local government is exercised through counties, municipalities, towns, cities, and the districts of Budapest.
