The best maps of Europe and Hungary include Historical Maps of Europe | Maps of South Eastern Europe 900 A.D. - 1881 A.D. | Maps of Hungary (1910) - has most of the original 64 Hungarian counties |
If you want software which allows you to find villages,communities,small towns, large towns,cities in Slovakia, Hungary (Dunántúl, Alföld), and Rumania (Erdély-Bánát, Munténia-Olténia, Moldva-Dobrudsza) in Hungarian or German or Romanian, then download KIÚT4.1 which is free, but the latest version is not. The best part of this electronic map is that you get the original Hungarian and German names of even small villages from which your ancestors may have come from in Erdély-Bánát. Highly recommended though you will need to know some Hungarian, German, Slovak or Rumanian to drive the software! English is not available. The software is donation-ware (if you want to you may donate an amount of your choosing to the Bank account numbers listed on their web page). To help you install the software see my installation guide.

Hungarian Origins and Linguistic Controversy
Dr. László Marácz :
Melijn de Smit :
Provides a 'critique' of alternate theories, but why are personal attacks still necessary to defend the integrity of mainstrean Uralic linguistics? Not much objectivity in Science.
Johanna Laakso :
The author also resorts to accusations of "nationalism" against others offering alternatives to Finnish mainstream Finno-Ugristics. She admits that "... it seems probable that genetic relationship beyond the language families known by now can never be proved." If that is so, then it might also follow that perhaps alternative unorthodox relationships cannot be disproved, especially with such unscientific arguments?
(c) "Related words" in Finnish and Hungarian
I suppose Hungarians must feel extremely flattered that so many nations of the world can lay claim to so much of their language. Some can even lay claim to their entire culture and ancestral lands.
(d) Is it really true that Finno-Ugric and Turkic are NOT related?
Anonymous author:
Great site, but a pity the anonymous author resorts to accusations of "nationalism" and "crank" scholarship this time against others offering alternatives to mainstream theories concerning the Etruscans which nevertheless should ALL be assessed with an open mind without necessarily indulging in such a classic example of bogus skepticism
