- Aren't you a nomad? - Yep. - And this is your horse. - Yep. - You have came from Asia and you shooting arrows backwards. - That makes sense to me. - Then you are a Hun. - I am a Magyar.
Actually the Hungarians were not the last nomadic people came to the basin. In the 13. Century Cuman and Jazig people came to the Kingdom of Hungary, running away from Mongols. The Cumans and Jazig people melted to the Hungarians among the centuries.
Eventually the entire Eastern part (of the Tisza river) becomes a Jasz (Jazig) and Kun (Cuman) settlement. So if anyone is browsing on Google Maps, you see "Jasz" and "Kun" quite often incorporated into town and village names of Eastern Hungary. Many people will also claim to be Jasz or Kun origin ethnically and they have their traditions and customs somewhat different than the other parts of the country. If you see Szász, that's Hungarianized version of the Saxons. There are names like that pop up in town names (Szaszhalombatta) and peoples' last names. Eventually the Pechenegs (Besenyok) were also ended up loosing their upper hands later in the history and their last remaining tribes seeked refugee in Hungary , so there is that town name Besenyszög - in Hungary.
@@Neanderthal75 Just some parts of East-Hungary lived by jazig people and cumans. Mostly between the Danube and the Tisza. The other parts still lived by Hungarians. The genetical resoults shows that, these regions where cumnas live, the asian/eastern genes are higher, but in the other regions of Est-Hungary its way lower, it shows where the cuman people live and its just some regions.
@@Neanderthal75 There is no such place as Szászhalombatta. The city's name is Százhalombatta, which is often confused because of the similar pronounciation. The name refers to the 100+ tomb hills that were built there in the bronze age.
@@jozsefvadon3086 The closest languages to Hungarian are the languages of Khanty and Mansi peoples from Siberia, so the people from the Carpathian Basin surely couldn't have spoken 90% Hungarian. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-6uUttx11xDs.html Your claim that the people of the Pannonian/Carpathian Basin were descendants of neolithic farmers can only partially be true. As genetic research shows, people from Hungary today show about the same amount of genetic ancestry of proto-Indoeuropeans and neolithic farmers. If you have sources speaking on greater neolithic farmer ancestry in ancient Pannonia, I would be happy to look into it. drive.google.com/file/d/0B016wEaS0EWqMGxGSTBTc3VxVVU/view www.amphilsoc.org/sites/default/files/2018-08/attachments/Reich.pdf Knowing that Indoeuropeans have conquered and killed or assimilated most of peoples of Europe into their culture and that Hungarians are surrounded and most genetically similar to Slavic (Indoeuropean) speaking peoples that surround them, they are their closests relatives. The medieval ruling class had kept the language of the old Magyars, which was obviously favoured by the Hungarian state to this day. All in all, an average Hungarian is genetically closely related to a Croat or a Slovak.
Dominik Pešut I really would hate to say this my friend but you are mistaken by a landslide as to your statement claiming that the Hungarians or Magyars are pretty much the same as Slovaks and or Croatians . Basically what you’re stating is that they are nothing but Slavic both northern better yet western Slavic because Slovaks are basically just that like their colleagues the Czechs, and Poles seeing is that they border each other then wildly also Croatian which is southern Slav. Now to a very small degree it might make a little sense because of when Hungary was a part of the Austro-Hungarian Empire and both Slovaks and Croatians might have done a bit of intermixing with some tiny percentage of Hungarians but then that would have to presume that since Serbia , Czechs, Austrians and even some of Romanians included in that empire also! But in all honesty I sense That you are just saying this as if you had complete documentation from factual historical data when you don’t! Let’s be truthful your basis is opinion/shooting in the dark but on the very surface of “bullshit” oriented rather then documentation therefore completely biased if not borderline fraudulent mislabeling to mislead out of some spite you may have against Hungarians maybe because you might just not be one of them but rather a Romanian feller who obviously would have many reasons to make such biased uneducated statements sir ! I ‘m an American by the way i also majored and hold a bachelor degree in European history !
Fun fact the Hungarian wine making today is a combination of the Roman wine making that existed in the region since the Romans and the Magyar wine making they brought with them when they settled the area. The Magyars most likely learned wine making from the turks while in the plains of eastern Europe.
@Tarzan Makeing Tokaji wine has strict rules. They made wine from aszú grapes first during the reign of Matthias, but Szepsi Laczkó Máté was the first, who made it with the strict rules known today.
The owner of this channel is Slovakian! There you go!! I knew it from the beginning, that there is a great chance for Slovak-Hungarian friendship!! We need reasonable people instead of irredentist Hungarians and ultra-nationalist Slovaks! These nations spent 1000 years in one territory. I bound to say, let's continue living as separate countries but HAND IN HAND! Best wishes from Budapest!
Yes I agree. I am so sick of seeing the people of Hungary and Slovakia fight when we were cooperating and sharing the carpathian basin for over 1000 years. Let there be peace and cooperation between our 2 countries and the rest of V4.
My interest in Hungary started with the language, being it so different from others. Now here I am learning more and more about the Magyars. Thank you and well done 👌😊

you are correct, huns were Volga river Turk nation, like Pecenegs or Avars. The romanians called this land "Hun-land", and for this reason started calling Magyars "hun-garians", because the land was related to Huns, who left the panonia 100 years before the first magyars came. Correct name for the Country and the Nation in English would be "Magyarland, or Magyar republik", just like in Turkish language.
@@sukromnevideo There first appeared in the Volga region way before the Turks. Then Huns got extinct during the 6th century, Hungarian came during the 9th century. The etymology of Hungarian is uncertain but in all cases not related to Hun, in German, it is Ungarisch, there's no -h but it is pronounced in the German language. Their closest related people are the Uralic Khanti and Mansi.

GREAT! I love the objectivity! Pure facts, shown what it is based on, discussed sources etc. That's how all history should be presented. In the end, we should all remember that history is based on information that we accept as true (until it is critically contested), highly probable and legends/stories.
It's rare to find a youtube video about a topic you know a lot about and find it to be this accurate. There's always more to say but for the level of detail you went for, this is great.
15:20 Fire arrows you say? Lindybeige wants to know your location! Am I doing the meme right? I have no idea. Anyway, you can always just blame Johannes, ;) I was also considering making the obligatory comment about Poles liking Hungarians, but somebody beat me to it.
@@SirAdrian87 In truth fire arrows yes weren't used the way portrayed in movies and they where almost never used in battles (unless trying to scare animals like elephants). However during sieges of mostly wooden towns (which often times had buildings with hay bale roofs) or attacking ships off the coast, yes fire arrows where very much used. Not all the time, not always effectively and not exactly the way they are portrayed in movies but they where definitely used through out History. Plus fire arrows didn't mean only the end of the arrow its self was on fire, it usually had an attached flammable liquid on it and that did the trick. "The simplest flaming arrows had oil- or resin-soaked tows tied just below the arrowhead and were effective against wooden structures." "More sophisticated devices were developed by the Romans which had iron boxes and tubes which were filled with incendiary substances and attached to arrows or spears." etc. And saying mounted combat is stupid (when dealing with medieval history) is so dumb that I am not going to even argue against it. I'll just say this, if it was so dumb how come every more sophisticated army had some sort of a cavalry. Heck the mongols conquered half of the known world thanks to a mounted army.
@@MLaserHistory The "mounted combat is a stupid idea" is taken here out of context! He never argued that mounted combat was ineffective or that it hasn't played a major role in warfare. The entire point was rather how fascinating it is that it even became a thing. In a world where horses are not used in combat, the idea of taking an animal that is easily scared and runs away from danger and using it for a purpose that goes against every instinct it has seems illogical and yet people put great effort into training the animals and themselves just for that purpose, resulting in revolutionizing warfare forever and making cavalry an integral and important part of warfare. He doesn't think mounted combat is stupid, he thinks it's great, despite the "idea" of using horses in combat (during a time when they weren't used) to be seemingly stupid. at that time. It's not the first time someone invented something revolutionary and impactful that would be dismissed as "useless" or "stupid" by most of their peers....
@@boomerix Fair enough. I don't actually know what he actually said or didn't say I am just going off of what the comments here and am responding to those ideas said. If he said what you're saying that makes sense and is completely normal.
@@MLaserHistory Yeah I am not blaming you for not knowing. I was just pointing it out because the other commenter made an out of context quote. Also most of Lindybeige Fire Arrow rants are about the way they are used in movies, (mainly battles) not historical warfare. At the end he also talks about their historical use in Naval and Siege warfare. I just don't want you to get the wrong picture of a fellow youtuber, just because people are too lazy to watch a video....
@@manueldegroot7625 Ha, ha, ha! Let me teach you something, Hungarian. From Croatian point of view... You occupied us? Before the arrival of the Hungarians, we had our own Croatian state that lasted 488 years (principality 296 and kingdom 192 years). I have studied this period and my conclusion is as follows; the Hungarians would not have overthrown the Croatian state without the betrayal of the Šubić of Bribir family (later Zrinjski). They protected Queen Jelena (Ilona), took her to Hungary (there is no chance that she could do it alone without protection), and the Šubićs made discord between twelve Croatian noble tribes. I have no evidence, but it is possible that they fought on the side of the Hungarians against the last Croatian king, Peter Snačić. At best, they remained passive and pretended that the war was out of the question. Later Zrinjski always, through the centuries, had an absolutely privileged position in Hungary, which disappeared with the arrival of the Habsburgs. Such a thing to say about the Zrinjski family is still taboo here, but history needs to be studied and analyzed. As for the Hungarians, we are also sorry that after Trianon you were finally reduced to your true measure. An old Croatian proverb says: who was above, is now below. 😉
Finally an accurate video on YT about this issue, and the best thing is that it’s done by a Slovak, not a Hungarian, this RU-vidr knows history of the region, and he’s not a tipical ultranationalist who has been incited by Hungarophobic Slovak chauvinist propaganda based on fake history (same for similar Romanians). ;) Let’s erase hate, look and progress ahead, learn correct history and ignore hate speech and politicians who spread hate and division! Well done, M. Laser History! :D

Idk about the fake history tho - what he’s describing is basically what I’ve been taught in history classes in my school in Slovakia (AFAIR). Not as detailed as the video, but the same in broad strokes. Certainly not contradicting it.
Fascinating. Thank you! I don't know very much about Hungary. I was fascinated to find out more coming at it from a language perspective it doesn't seem to be like anything else in the geographic area of Hungary today. Your video helps to explain why that is the case.
Wow the part where the Pechenegs killed the hungarians' women and children was heart-wrenching,also a slight mention of the Vlachs would have been nice,greetings from Romania.
shane the vlachs lived south of the carpathians and the molodavians lived east to the carpathians but they were irrelevant at the time when the Hungarians settlers came
@@gabor247 of course they do,but it is pretty ridiculous to say they lived in southern Romania at the arrival of the Magyars since no historical source ever mentions them in that area before 1185,most sources either talk of the vlachs of moldova or transylvania.
Awesome video. Although Bulgaria' s control over transilvania didn't last in 892 According to the Annals of Fulda, in 894 Emperor Arnulf sent envoys to the Bulgarians to "ask that they should not sell salt to the Moravians"; this demonstrates that the Bulgarians controlled, at a minimum, the roads between the Transylvanian salt mines and Moravia. Also one of the most famous hungarian sources(gesta hungarorum) mentions the famous vlach dukes Menomorut ,Gelou and Glad who controlled Banat and Transilvania in the early 900 s . All of who were born and baptised in Vidin , Bulgaria. Thus were most likely Bulgarian vassals. However I should mention that Gesta hangarorum was written in the 11th century. So it does have some fiction and semei-legendary figures in it.
Not necessarily, they could have been trading over the Danube. With that said I am open to the idea of Bulgarian control within those lands lasting longer however what kind of control this was is very speculative. It wouldn't be uncommon for local counts to play two larger powers off of each other by giving vassalage to one then the other etc. simply for more local autonomy. This could be one aspect of it. Another could be a simple back and forth between the border regions of the two kingdoms, shifting the power dynamics between various counts/chiefs on multiple occasions. Lastly the fact that the Hungarians did establish them self in the basin by 895 does show a certain level of control over the Carpathian passages before that time, otherwise they wouldn't be able to get through there. However this control could have of course been temporary or fragile or gradient, etc. There's just not enough information to go off of and a simple "not selling salt to the Moravians" could be interpreted many ways. They could have not even had control over the Transylvanian salt mines and simply been just trading salts to the Moravians from the Black see market, this is highly unlikely I am just saying it's impossible to know exactly, hence I went with the Hungarian control since as I mentioned before they needed some Carpathian control to be bale to establish them self in Pannonia.
@@MLaserHistory Absolutely agree. Deffenetly the Bulgarian rule of transylvania after the magyar arrival was more inconsistent than our rule of what was to became wallachia and part of modern Moldavia. We all know how contradicting medieval sources can be. Not to mention the fact that every chronicler from that time period was a loyal servant of his state's bias. In that case the byzantines which excluded any Bulgarian land north of the Danube. I really love your channel becouse you dive into very unique and at the same time really controversial topics. Here are some sources if you are interested into this particular topic which our academics had named "Outdanubian Bulgaria" historian István Bóna Bóna writes that the Bavarian Geographer is the last source which contains contemporaneous information of the eastern regions of the Carpathian Basin in the 9th century. According to this source, which is actually a list of the tribes inhabiting the lands east of the Carolingian Empire around 840,the Merehani, who had 30 civitates, or fortified centers, lived along the southernmost parts of the empire's eastern frontiers. Their land also bordered on Bulgaria. The Abodrites A group of tribes which inhabited the lands along either the Timiș or the Tisza.According to a memorial inscription from Provadia, a Bulgar military commander, Onegavonais, drowned in the Tisza, implying Omurtag of Bulgaria's attempts to expand his rule in the region in the 820s. Also the Bulgars invaded Moravia in 863 and 883, suggesting that they controlled the crossing-points across the rivers Mureș and Tisza. Also emperor Simeon crossed the modern day region of Moldavia and bessarabia unchallenged in 896 in order to atack the magyars. And reached as far as the Boh river. This suggests that again these territories were Bulgarian possessions. Or atleast to some extent.
Gesta Hungarorum was written not in XI but in XIII century, how mentioned in the video as well. In Transylvania no any Vlach duke is mentioned: Mén-Marót was Kozar, Gyalu was Blak (not Vlach) and Galad was Kun according the Gesta, and this nations were eighter ally nations of the Bulgarians (according the Gesta), eighter were Some Bulgarian tribes, bacause there were other Bulgarian captains mentioned together with them. And the conqest of the Magyars of Transylvania from the Bulgarians was not in the early 900’s but the late 800’s not only according the Gesta (written about 3 hundreds years later) but also according the Byzantine sources of the IX-X century. If you quote from the Gesta Hungarorum, please do it exactly, and not according some foreigner (miss)translation or (miss)explaination!
@@lajos-berenyi The ethnicity of the dukes was not the main point here. The gesta does mention other rulers as bulgarians (Salan for example). And as far as I know, according to this source the duchies of Gelou and Menomorut located in modern day Crisana and western Transylvania fell to the hungarians around 907 AD not in the late 9th century. As for Glad his descendants ruled Banat until the early 11th century , Ahtum was the last ruler of the region. Also no consistent hungarian rule of transilvania before 1000AD can be proven. As for the gesta I am sorry, yes you are right it was written in the 13th century.
@@historyrhymes1701 where you are taking this infos? This infos you are wrinting are contradictionary of the Bizantine sousrces (I don't mention the Gesta, because it was 3 centuries after written). The Byzantine Leo the Wise (reign 886-912) was writing in his historical book about the Magyar conquest of the Transylvania over the Bulgarian. What is your sources to against it?
Late to comment but I wanted to say: thank you! My wife comes from Hungarian immigrants here in the US. I'm trying to learn more about my ancestors and my wife's to teach our collective history to our children. I really like the Indo-European histories and try to carry on their traditions in honor of the ancestors. Cheers!
Hi! Did you know the Magyar People are actually came from an other Galaxy? They were originally lived in there. And from that Galaxy on a Starship the Magyar People came to planet Earth. So the Magyar People are came from above, directly from the Heaven, to the Pannonia, to the Carpatian basin as you said.
Charlemagne waged brutal wars against both the Saxons and a little bit later against the Avars, who incidentally where not wiped out, just their political power was drastically diminished and they no longer could maintain the same political control over Western Pannonia. Machiavellian intrigue was used by the Franks to break the power of the Avars. Many of the Avar leaders were invited to a large banquet by Charlemagne's orders to discuss the terms of peace with the Franks. The Franks had all the Avar leaders murdered. The evidence is in the 9th and 10th century gravefinds in Hungary. Many surviving, Avars had joined the Árpád Magyars voluntarily without force or blood-shed. There's quite a few Avars buried nearby the 9th & 10th Century Magyars.
Some stayed there too. In the 13th century, father Julianus went to the East, to find them, and he did eventually. He went back to Hungary to inform the king about it, but then the mongols reached the area. When Julianus went back the second time, no Magyars were left. But we can still see traces of them in Baskhir genome. Ironically, they have the most old - magyar DNA.
Yes, at one time there was Magna Hungaria which was in the Forest and Steppe regions of Bashkortostan, in the general area of the Southern Urals. There's was also ethnic Magyars living in the North Western region of Caucasus in a town named Madjar that had buildings and trade with other areas and was still around until the 18th Century CE

Long ago, in an American college, I had a German language prof of Moravian birth, and a philosophy prof of Hungarian birth. They lived out this story regularly, alternatingly chastising and forgiving each other as if it all happened the year before. They both served up Turkish coffee but did so as if they had just ousted the Ottomans thereby.
How do you know? In the video the guy said the two stories contradict each other So there is no definitive answer, and one of them must be fiction. However we have no sources over which one is true. So historians merge them where is possible, but leave out sections that contraditcs each other
Tibor Varga - The 2 sources contradict each other - but he says nothing about the contradictions themselves, so who (and how ) decides what is fictional and what is not fictional? Does fictional mean completely invented or does it mean that certain facts were woven into more fanciful narratives? In my opinion it has a reason why one fanciful narrative is picked up and not another. Maybe it fits into the cultural characteristics of a people. As a Hungarian I can say that the Blood contract between tribes ( Vérszerzödés) feels at home in Hungarian culture (see "testvér", "szert ülni"). * Latest cognitive science affirms the importance of using intuition alongside with factual knowledge......

This video just shows how close have people to each other in current Central Europe. People were traveling from side to side. We have to have a look what is connecting us and not talking and thinking about stupid national things. I thought I am slovak until now, but my DNA says " balkan, welsh/irish, eastern europe and finnish " descent... . My advice : do not think too much about nationalism when you are from Central Europe.
DNA isn't really used by Historians because A. as you said Europeans are far more closely related than any of us would like to admit and B. well your DNA doesn't define you as a person, you define your self as a person. For example the ruling dynasty of Mecklenburg was founded by Slavs, however no sensible person would call them Slavic after like the 10th century because well they themselves considered themselves German. They fully assimilated in to the German HRE even though their DNA was fully Slavic. What matters in political context and in turn the Historical one is what those people thought of themselves and what actions they made under those assumptions. Whether their DNA said this or that is absolutely irrelevant. If one spoke German, acted German, participated in German costumes, and thought of themselves German, even though their line and DNA was Slavic, they where German and would be calcified as such by History.

I have no idea why. Venice itself is Venecija. It could be remnant of old Dalmat language.
I don't really care if people avoid saying "Magyar" because I know foreigners can have a hard time pronouncing our double (and some other) letters. Great video.
Agreed. I don't really understand people who insist on using the proper names of people and places in their original language. Languages invent names for each other's peoples and places for good reasons - one of which is pronunciation and spelling ease. As much as I love languages and am personally fairly good at learning foreign pronunciations (sadly, far more than foreign languages' grammar, which would be a far more useful talent), this modern trend strikes me as unnecessarily and excessively polite. It's not like the English word for Hungarians is derived from old insulting Hungarian words for "primitive beastly murderers" or "child-eaters.". Lol. That would be the only time I would think it was warranted for us all to make a switch.
The huge flaw with this Video is that there’s no date applied to many of these events. It would be nice if every time you said another event, the graphics would include a date
I lack the knowledge to tell how accurate your videos are, but they look very well-researched and you mention a lot of sources, only I'm too lazy to look it up myself. I like that you are very factual and not biased in any way. One small remark is that you should make short pauses so I can keep up with dates and names (some names I have to translate to the form I know them).
There is a small problem with the video, as the Moravians and Slavs never dominated the areas east of the Danube! Even the Frankish Empire failed, the Avars and other equestrian nomadic peoples were still the lords!
"Uralic languages" is a name, doesn't mean though that these peoples lived at the Ural Mountains, like the dots in your map. Linguistically it's most probable they lived as the northern neighbors to the indo-iranian peoples. More likely they lived from the Ural Mountains to the Baltic Sea region. There is no certainty that proto-Uralic was once a spoken language, and all the peoples living that region were Finnic or Ugric languages speaking, before the arrival of Slavic and Turkic languages. Indo-Iranian loan words are also the oldest loanword layer in the Finnish language.

Actually I have to disagree with your decision not to use the therm “Magyar” because “Hungarian” does not stand for particular ethnic group. It is like British, Brits are English, Welsh and Scotts. Hungarians consisted of Magyars, Slavs (Slovaks and Rusins), Romanians, Germans etc. The therm Hungary comes from Latin name Hungaria (before Ungaria) which most likely comes from Slavic name Ugria which literally means country near mountains which Hungary certainly was. In some languages there is a difference between Hungarian Kingom and present-day Hungary like in Slovakia for instance, Uhorsko stands for Hungarian Kingom and Maďarsko for Magyarország which is present-day national state of Hungary (which does not have English equivalent). Unfortunatelly we do not know how exactly Hungarian Kingom appeared since we lack historical documents as it was said in the video. There is also so called “Polish chronicle” which describes sort of symbiosis between magyars and slavs in Pannonia. And I think this document is more likely to be true since it would explain many thinks such as Magyars being white (turkik steppes nomads were asians) and the fact that Magyars use thousands of Slavic-origin words in their language etc.
No. You are confusing CITIZENSHIP with ethnicity - "Hungarian" is the modern term in English for Magyar. There are black people who are German citizens - but they are not Deutsche - understand?
Magyar and Hungarian have the same meaning. The word 'magyar' the Hungarian name of hungarians. So it is correct what you do, honestly I don't understand why the english language call us in both name.
