Hungarians
An anonymous man in Persia geographer And Galdizi proposed that there were two Magyar tribes, one of which was still staying The Ural Mountains Muncie. The other one just left The Ural Mountains The Magyars headed for Southern Russia.
The early Magyars were nomad Hit the middle of" Minority nationality "Because Eurasia Many of the nomads exercised Indo-european languages and Turkic There are very few Ugric speakers like them. Magyars and Turks, Mongols, Scythians did not have much Blood relation For generations, they lived in the low southern Ural Mountains Hilly area And some live in Eurasia The very cold northern end, unlike modern Finns, Estonians It's a close relative.
For example, the Huns who appeared in the eastern region of the Black Sea at the end of the 4th century were once widely suspected by historians that they were descendants of the Huns who had been defeated by the Han Dynasty and moved west, but after a series of theories and archaeological excavations, the Huns and the Huns were not directly related, they were more like the earliest group of Ugols who moved south, that is, the Huns not The ancestors of the Magyars.
The steppes of Eurasia gave birth to many brave and skillful nomads
Beginning in the 8th century, due to climate change Living condition The deterioration of the Southern Russian steppe, and that of other nomadic tribes Living space Squeezed, the Magyars were forced to leave their ancestral homes The Ural Mountains Move to the southwest. Here they come. The Ural River with The Don River Between the prairie Multiply and prosper Here they came into contact with other nomads such as the Bougars, Kazars and Alans. As the least civilized tribe, the Magyars learned how to grow and manage food from their neighbors Cash crop To some extent, it makes up for the shortage of food rations, but to Animal husbandry For their ancestors, they still live on cattle, horses and sheep. pastoral Economic model Let them be good on horseback, riding and shooting is the most basic life skill of every Magyar herdsman.
Politically, the Magyar royal family has always been considered to be descended from foreign nomad nobility, the earliest mention of Magyar origin in the 9th century AD Eastern Roman Empire historian Constantine Poferogirites spoke of the entry of a foreign tribe, the Kabal Central Europe . The royal family of the Magyars, i.e The Grand Duke of Alpad Believed to have been sent by the Khazarians. A Khazarian tribal leader, in his capacity as Magyar suzerain, appointed a young nobleman named Arpad as the Magyar Grand duke, and after living in Pannonia, the Magyars remained Khazarian subjects. Later in southern Russia, the Magyars were attacked by the Pechenegs The Carpathian Mountains Ten tribes went there, the original name being "on ogur", which means ten arrows and ten Ouigour (seven Magyars and three Khazarian tribes).
The Carpathian Basin Three sides Be surrounded by mountains To the west is the Danube River The plains of Pannonia The water and grass here are abundant, the geographical location is safe, there is no other powerful nomadic people around to compete with the grazing land, so the Magyar people decided to take root here to develop their business. Environment is destiny, and the future course of Magyar history will largely depend on the geography of the Carpathian Basin Humanistic environment .
From the steppes of southern Russia to Central Europe hinterland The Carpathian Basin It means moving from barbarism to semi-civilization and semi-barbarism. The Carpathian Basin from Roman Empire From the beginning, it was a bridge where Romans and barbarians fought each other, and it still was when the Magyars came into town The Byzantine Empire The front line against the barbarians in the north. The interweaving of civilization and barbarism is the biggest characteristic of this region, where different forces play each other, and the result is often wrong Balkan , Italy and Central Europe Political pattern Make a decisive impact. As a result, the Magyars are no longer the humble nomadic barbarians who lived on the fringes of Europe, but are now thrust into the foreground of history.
The Magyars, who have taken root in the new region, look around and find themselves at a great time in history, because the neighbors around them are either divided and divided, or weak, and each one can be pinched Soft persimmon . This is the greatest gift God has ever given the Magyars.
In the south, Danube The Byzantine empire on the other side has long since forgotten the glory of the time of Justinian the Great. After the rise of the Arabs, raids by the Avars, invasions by the Slavs, attacks by the Lombards, and repeated harassment by the Pechenegs, the medieval empire was a giant in a quagmire. The Byzantines were overwhelmed by a steady stream of barbarian tribes from the north, as well as aggressive Muslim forces and pirates from the east Mediterranean The empire has been on the brink of collapse several times, and it can no longer support it.
In the West, Empire of Charlemagne The division left the Germans too distracted by civil war. Ever since Charlemagne Within a generation of his death, the empire was in disarray. The emperor's descendants hated each other and fought each other, and were once unified Frankish kingdom One split into three. East Frankish Kingdom Although the surface is a whole, but the internal has been divided into several separate Dukes, the Dukes have different agendas, and the royal family. In addition, the East Frankish Kingdom was also in constant war with the Vikings in the north and the Slavs in the east, which seriously distracted its strategic attention, so they had to react negatively to the arrival of the Magyars.
In the southwest, Italy is fragmented Lombardy The duchy ruled, and there was no unity among the states. Since the 6th century The Ostrogoth Kingdom After the collapse, the Lombards began to take advantage of the influx into Italy, but this barbarian royal family was lacking charisma Unable to unite the tribes with their influence, the men broke up to divide up the land, before long disintegrating into a multitude of small states. This split lasted for centuries, and was still in disarray until the 10th century.
The Magyars, having grasped the situation around them, decided to take advantage of this troubled time full of opportunities, unprecedented opportunities were waiting, and their time had come.
The Magyars cannot wait to realize their ambitions. They first took by force the 200,000 Slavs living in the Carpathian basin and made them their slaves. It then continued westward into the plains of Pannonia, which offered access to the kingdom of East Frankish in the north and northern Italy in the south, and was far from its old rivals, the Pechenegs, making the rear more secure.
Beginning in the 10th century, the Magyars began to invade all surrounding areas on a large scale, with a frequency of almost every year. They are good on horseback, adept at riding arrows, their speed is unmatched, and they are especially good at using their ancestral weapon, the return of the horse arrow, in battle. The Magyars are extremely cautious both in battle and on the march, and they will hold first when they encounter an enemy safe distance , make use of mobility Fast encircled on both wings, the central army retreated, constantly exhausting the enemy's strength, constantly harassing the enemy with a heavy rain of arrows, and the pursuit of the enemy would soon be broken, demoralized, and become a target for the Magyars, and finally reaped under the cavalry charge.
The Magyars' mounted shooting tactics were effective against weak cavalry such as the Germans and Slavs. As long as they can fight on a wide battlefield, they have no advantage. As their victories increased and their knowledge of the enemy deepened, their appetite grew and their plunder became more brazen. Just 10 years later, their looting had reached thousands of miles north of their home Germany Area, almost collided head-on with the Vikings. Because of the elusive Magyar cavalry, which was difficult for their opponents to detect and intercept, and the chaos and division within the East Frankish Kingdom, all were unable to unite against the foreign enemy. To reduce the possibility of interception, the Magyars also tried to divide the army into multiple units and plunder it, as they wanted booty rather than a head-to-head battle.
The Magyars thus began to sweep across Western Europe with their unrivalled maneuverability on land. During the plunder of 924, they stormed in Swaben And Bavaria, across Rhine They ravaged Alsace and Lorraine, their first offensive west of the Rhine, showing that the Rhine was no longer too dangerous in Western Europe to hold them back. Two years later, they broke straight south into northern Italy Pavia After the city fled into Alps They followed the mountain trails west into Burgundy, plundered and then south-west into Spain, a staggering distance. It's from 954 Military action Even more impressively, the Magyars once again swept across Bavaria and Swabia, in Worms Crossing the Rhine, ransacking the north Gaul He even marched south through Paris and back into Burgundy, eventually returning to his hometown of Pannonia along the Italian coast. That year they circled the Alps in one of the most successful raids they had ever made.
Until 955 AD, the Saxons Otto the Great In Bavaria The Battle of Augsburg They completely defeated and severely damaged them. They (including the West Slavs of Great Moravia, the true source of the Magyar lineage) settled in agriculture and, under St. Stephen I of Ishtevan, converted to Christianity and absorbed the advanced civilization of Western Europe, no longer posing a threat to the outside world.
Culturally, the Magyars are related to East Asian cultural circle Similar in some ways. For example, the way people are named in Hungary is Surname precede , last name, last identity, and surrounding Indo-European Quite the opposite, and East Asia Ethnic groups (Chinese, Japanese, Vietnamese, Korean, etc.) are also listed in the order of first surname followed by first name. But that doesn't mean that Hungarians have anything to do with East Asians substantiality The connection, whether cultural or blood.

The Hungarians call themselves Magyars. [1]
It is said that in 1235, Bela IV (Bela IV) ordered several priests to preach to the East, and they crossed Volga And found that there were parts of the wilderness where the language of the people was related Hungary The language is close. 19th century, Hungarian linguist They investigated and studied the languages spoken by the tribes in that area. The more common view is that the Hungarians are concentrated. Later, there are Scientific data It proves that Hungarians once lived in this area with other peoples. Due to the geographical characteristics of the region, Hungarians rely on farming for a living Feudal society . From about the middle of the 5th century onwards, the Hungarians were composed of seven local governments: Nek, Mezar (i.e., Magyar), Gutjolmatt, Tauryan, Jeno, Kell, and Cayce. The Magyars are the strongest, so Hungarians are also called Magyars. Legend Tribal chief In accordance with the Hungarian custom of blood alliance, elected the Hungarian leader Arpad as king. [1]
According to archaeological research, in 896 AD, under the leadership of King Albad, about 500,000 Hungarians lived in an organized, low-sacrifice community The Carpathian Basin . The Hungarians lived there for a longer time, about four centuries. During this long migration, the Magyars remained in the territory of the Hungarians, and because of this, some historical accounts in the 9th and 10th centuries often refer to the Hungarians Eastern Europe The man.

The Carpathian Basin Be a Alluvial plain . In the process of ethnic settlement, the ethnic groups have well maintained the main characteristics of their own nationality and language, which shows that Hungarians are the original inhabitants of the region. They are the same as the peoples of Europe, because kindred Relationships, not places Geographical position Made the Hungarians produce a huge Cohesive force . The seven groups of Hungarians include about 100 or so Social organization These groups should all be common. One notable feature that distinguishes Hungarians from other peoples in Europe is that most of the other peoples are Eastern European or Western Europe The Hungarian language is a European language and is influenced by the Hungarian language. Of course, Hungarians are not different in appearance, folk customs, tunes, etc. In addition, the Hungarians have long had a relatively fixed identity, unlike the other peoples who have settled here, who have either identified themselves as Hungarians or not. At the same time, the culture of the Hungarian people is to absorb many elements of the peoples who have settled here, such as Hungary and the culture of the Hungarian nation. For historical reasons, Hungary has Hungary Cultural fusion The characteristics of their later literature, art and music can be fully expressed. On account of The Carpathian Basin It effectively prevented incursions from the north, east, and southeast, but could not stop other peoples Danube Entry from the west and south. Hungary, therefore, is also subject to the dual constraints of Western and southern, or rather Western and Eastern powers, which obliges the country to join a bloc for its own benefit. In fact, the Hungarian language, unique appearance, and culture made them fundamentally different from the non-Hungarian Western Europeans who settled here at the same time. [1]
