ReplyDeleteBcs Hungary was "playing" little commies organizing their own Hungarian Soviet Republic for half a year or so until Romanians with French and Czechs finished the circus.
So, Romania deserved then its share ;)
Czechoslovaks became very democratic - deserved too.
And poor Hungary (csonka Magyarorszag) had to be punished as big participant in WWI aggression as part of Austro-Hungarian Empire.
But the main reason - those lands had just hungarian minority. So, what's gone is gone - no whining and any wrong idea about revenge. Magyars are not good solders; Huns - were, but not "soft" Magyars.
So, enjoy the peaceful life!
