I walk on meadows run to weed,
on fields of burdock and mallow.
I know this rank and ancient ground -
this is the Magyar fallow.“The Magyar Fallow”, Endre Ady
Some facts about Hungarian Republic
What do you know about this postsoviet country? According to different rumours Hungary is a poor and unknown country, but it is “a landlocked country in Central Europe, bordered by Austria, Slovakia, Ukraine, Romania, Serbia, Croatia, and Slovenia. Hungary has been a member state of the European Union since May 1, 2004″ and a small Paris.

Some tourists and travellers see it in different colors - color wheel (no longer do you have to deal with colors in abstract ways, now you can get a better idea how color combinations will look in real, tangible ways) - a Hungarian tricolour flag.
Fun ad:
Hungarian builders who drank their way to the bottom of a huge barrel of rum while renovating a house got a nasty surprise when a pickled corpse tumbled out of the empty barrel, a police magazine website reported.
According to online magazine www.zsaru.hu, workers in Szeged in the south of Hungary tried to move the barrel after they had drained it, only to find it was surprisingly heavy and were shocked when the body of a naked man fell out.
The website said that the body of the man had been shipped back from Jamaica 20 years ago by his wife in the barrel of rum in order to avoid the cost and paperwork of an official return. According to the website, workers said the rum in the 300-liter barrel had a “special taste” so they even decanted a few bottles of the liquor to take home. The wife has since died and the man was buried in a proper grave.
P.S. ”We must look at the nation to which we belong as if we’re looking at it from the outside; we must look inside ourselves as if we’re looking with foreign eyes.”
