Count Lajos Széchényi de Sárvár-Felsővidék ((ドイツ語:Ludwig Graf Széchényi von Sárvár und Felsövidék); 28 March 1868 – 14 April 1919) was an Austro-Hungarian diplomat of Hungarian origin serving as envoy to Bulgaria and the Netherlands during World War I. == Life == Born in Gyönk on 28 March 1868 into a prominent Hungarian noble family. His older brother Bertalan (1866–1943) was a politician who served in the Hungarian House of Magnates and his uncle Imre (1825–1898) served as Ambassador to Germany from 1878 to 1892.〔(Széchényi von Sárvár-Felsövidék )〕 Count Széchényi entered the Austro-Hungarian foreign service in 1892 and served subsequently in Brussels, Washington D.C., Rome, St. Petersburg and London. In 1909, Count Széchényi was selected to lead the diplomatic agency in Cairo with the title of Consul-General and remained in charge until the outbreak of war in 1914 when it was dissolved. During World War I, he entered military service and served in Serbia.〔('Széchenyi Lajos, gróf', Magyar Életrajzi Lexikon )〕 In November 1916, Count Széchényi was appointed Minister of the Dual Monarchy at Sofia to succeed Count Tarnowski who had been appointed Ambassador to the United States. However, he was transferred to The Hague already in January the following year to make place in Sofia for Count Otto von Czernin, the younger brother of the Imperial Foreign Minister Count Ottokar von Czernin, and remained there until the end of the war, being accredited also to Luxembourg. After having lost much of his estates after the war, Count Széchényi died at Kaltenleutgeben on 14 April 1919 at the early age of 51. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Lajos Széchényi」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
