I find the origins on Hungarians to be fascinating:
Originally Hunnic Mongolians who interbred with local Europeans stock, able to defend their territory for a few hundred years, and who asked a Pope for recognition, which was granted, thus cementing their nation as a permanent thing, and whose closest linguistic or ethnic neighbors or some folks up in Finland.
“Defending themselves??”
I wasn’t aware the rest of Europe was doing a damn thing to DEFEND themselves.
