This book contains discussions on Hungarian history and mythology, including the mysterious origin of the Hungarian people. -Why is their language so different from the languages of the surrounding countries? -Were Hungarians descendants of Atilla the Hun?- Was Hungary filled with dragons, witches, and vampires? -Was Dracula a Hungarian vampire? The book also includes discussion of the Romani people who were an integral part of Hungarian history and are to be admired for the courage they show to live their lives the way tradition dictates. There are many stories about the conflicts between the Turks and Hungarians over the centuries and the important and interesting role that Transylvania and Vlad III played in Hungarian history. There are discussions about the discrimination of Hungarians by other nationalities after World War I and the Trianon disaster that dismantled the country. Hungarian history portrays the image of strong people who were in many ways isolated and different from other European cultures. They suffered many challenges and tragedies ranging from the invasion of Genghis Khan, invasion and occupation by the Turks, control and influence from the Austrian Habsburgs, dismemberment of their country after World War I, Hitler's influence in the early stages of World War II, Soviet murders and rape of Hungarians, Communist takeover, and the death of a revolution. This is a fun and interesting introduction to Hungary and the Hungarians that may encourage you to study more about their vital role in Western Civilization and World Culture.
