One of the characteristics of Hungary between the two world wars, the levente institution, was established in December 1921 with Article LIII of the Law, which is called the Physical Education Act. The aim of the institution – at its inception – was the physical, religious, moral and patriotic national education of Hungarian youth. In the aforementioned law, the state included the issue of physical education among its own tasks: it increased the number of physical education classes in public education, and obliged boys who had left school to participate in regular physical education in the levente associations in their place of residence until the age of 21. ; The number of leventes gradually increased, and in 1939 the levente obligation was extended to schoolboys as well. Thus, its membership reached 1,300,000 in 1943. Due to its mandatory nature, it became the largest youth education organization in the country. ; (http://ujkor.hu/content/levente)
