Given that that language is probably Hungarian, there's a good reason for that:  Hungarian irredentism.

If the Hungarians didn't want to be persecuted, they should have stayed content with their place in the Austrian Empire.

The Hungarians were not exactly among the overjoyed when that Empire broke up.

And yet their struggle for power helped speed the demise of the Empire.

Well, your complaint seems suspiciously nationalist-minded Tamas, but I symphasise anyway.

Just resist the urge to push for military action. That never works for Hungary.

I think Habsburg needs to go to Vienna and bring all these people under control.

I mean, the Slovaks have a rather poor track record in choosing good causes to fight for.

Your women are hot, but your language is ugly. I approve trying to wipe it out.

Why would I be in Ireland? I am going on vacation soon, the first time i'll ever have left the tri-state region, but it is only to visit the cradle of the Confederacy.

South Carolina?

Charleston in particular, although Columbia could also vie for the distinction.

(Alabama could also claim the title, but they'd be lying. We'd let them get away with it, because we like Alabama.)

There are only two real "tri-state regions". These are the NYC metroplex (NY, NJ, Conn) and the Chicago metroplex (IL, WI, IN), with the former being the original and the latter being a newer impostor that is too important to ignore. Places in the sticks calling themselves that are silly.

The Hungarian language is much better-sounding than slav barking, frankly.

As for Slovakia, I think they have some ruthenes as well but of course this is against the Magyars. Fucking fascists
