    Buda, Pest and Óbuda was three different cities, then they were joined as Budapest. Later some villages or little towns joined to Budapest, as more districts. 11:02 Hungary was _3x_ bigger.

    It's pretty interesting how most Americans talk about the 10 story buildings. As a Hungarian, I feel like most people still live in detached houses with gardens outside of the Budapest.

    Not so many turist got this parts with food or culture, bc they are just doin turist things, and talking with peoples, who want to say hungary is the best country ever, but they dont even know close nothing from culture or what mean to be hungarian. Youre interested for the culture and our feelings, and thanks for god you meet a lot of great people! Thanks for nice words! You should go to different countries too for missions or smth! :D

    Buda and Pest were different cities for a long time becouse they couldn't build a bridge with the tecnology of the time so it is two different cities connected and turned into one.

    Why doesn't he talk about the racism, corruption and how this is very prevalent in the 40+ population. You know, the people that are in the political and legal systems? And how about freedom of press?

    Do you know what the translation for Transilvania is? It's: through-forest-land in latin. Even the name is in latin! Transilvania was romanian before the mongols took it away! Before being called Romania, the teritorry that includes Transilvania, the Republic of Moldova, parts of Ukraine and Serbia, was called Dacia. The Dac people ware conquered by Rome and the emperor Traian (see Traian's column in Rome for a true account of the dacians)... The majority of the settlements today in Transilvania were dacian or roman settlements. Check out Clus, Potaissa, Porolissum, Apulum... Or the dacian capital Sarmizegetusa Regia (an UNESCO world heritage sight), or the roman fort Alba-Carolina situated in ancient Apulum (today Alba-Iulia) right in the middle of Transilvania! Even Iulius Cezar's XIII legion "Gemina" (with which he crossed the Rubicon) was stationed there for more then 100 years after the war in 106 AD! "Dracula is hungarian", what? First of all, Dracula doesn't exist! It is a fictional character developed by the novelist Bram Stoker, based on the king Vlad Draculea, sun of Vlad Dracul (meaning Vlad Drake, knight of the Dragon's Order, an alliance of kings that opposed the Ottoman empire). Vlad Draculea, or better known as Vlad Tepes, or even better as Vlad the Impaler, wasn't even helped by the hungarian king Matias Corvinus (which was catholic and the sun of an other romanian king who also happened to be a knight of the dragon's order, Iancu de Hunedoara), in sted, Matias betrayed the promise to help against the ottomans, and went as far as imprisoning Vlad Tepes when he sought refuge from the much larger ottoman army, after his was defeated... So when I hear about hungarians who were oppressed or had territories taken away, etc... it makes me sick! Romania is next to Hungary to the east, and that means that anything that reached Hungary (be it ottomans or comunist bolsevics or soviets) had to go through Romania! We bore the brunt of the Ottoman empire (because we are still christian), the same thing with the soviets (we have one of the closest languages to Latin, right after Italian; we had the territory that is today the Republic of Moldova taken from us by the soviets, and even today the official and most spoken language there is Romanian: we bled in the 1989 revolution against communism, and was the only country that had to fight and shoot it's communist dictator for democracy; we even liberated Hungary from it's Bolsevic Republic in 1919...)... But the hungarians are the pour ones that were unfortunate, right? Take a look at Victor Orban and his popular elected guvernment, and you will see the real face of the Hungarian People!
