As an American visiting here I gather

>Linguistically Ugric Siberian
>Genetically Slav-Balkan-German mutts larping as le Magyar (genetic tests show almost no relation for the vast majority of Hungarians)
>Culturally West/central European in terms of art and architecture tied with its days with Austria

Significant Gypsy element as is a problem in Europe and being next to Romania. Only marginally bad experiences come from a Gypsy prostitute propositioning me and Gypsies attempting to intimidate on the street

Hungarian language is ridiculous and a larp though that isn’t even European

Hungary is the poorest country in the European Union.
I thought it was a le based Eastern European country, how did this happen?
