27 March 1676 - 8 April 1735 was a Hungarian nobleman and leader of Rákóczi's War of Independence against the Habsburgs in 1703-11 as the prince Hungarian. Of the Estates Confederated for Liberty of the Kingdom of Hungary. He was also Prince of Transylvania, an Imperial Prince, and a member of the Order of the Golden Fleece.

Particum Regni Hungariae Dominus & Siculorum Comes, Regni Hungariae Pro Libertate Confoederatorum Statuum necnon Munkacsiensis & Makoviczensis Dux, Perpetuus Comes de Saros; Dominus in Patak, Tokaj, Regécz, Ecsed, Somlyó, Lednicze, Szerencs, Onod. His name is historically also spelled Rákóczy, in Hungarian.

Despite the Hungarian parliament offered Rákóczi the royal crown, he refused it, choosing instead the temporary title of the "Ruling Prince of Hungary". The military-sounding title indicated the temporary nature of the title, as Rákóczi intended to wear it only during the anti-Habsburg war of independence.

At the same time, by refusing the royal crown and by his precise choice of a temporary title, he sent a clear message to Hungary that it was not career or personal ambition that drove him in his war of liberation against the Habsburg dynasty.
