Aurelia Posted June 24, 2009 Report Share Posted June 24, 2009 The Huns are widely thought of as savage barbarians who appeared briefly in history, wreaked death and destruction, then disappeared again. Recent archaeological and historical discoveries are raising questions about this view. Of the European countries, Hungary has the most legends about the Huns and in these legends they are the heroes, not the villains.

Kosmo Posted June 24, 2009 Report Share Posted June 24, 2009 "Attila is the greatest figure in European history, many still tremble at his name." This hunnic obsession that some hungarians have it's extremely funny and pathetic. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This hunnic obsession that some hungarians have it's extremely funny and pathetic. Looks like you guys are pretty proud of Vlad Dracula too. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vlad_the_Impaler The Germans have Arminius. We're very proud of Ambiorix over here. The first two things about history I learned were : 1 ) The Romans were The Greatest Thing Ever and 2 ) Ambiorix was The Greatest Belgian Ever. And the Old Belgians were Great Guys. Despite being illiterate and lazy no-goods who did nothing all day except drinking beer and playing dice. F rmosus Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kosmo Posted June 25, 2009 Report Share Posted June 25, 2009 Vlad Tepes was definitely a romanian. Hungarians have no relation with Atilla. And Draculea it's good for tourism Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
