Magyar Migration Memorial, Budapest, HungaryWars and nationalism. One group using the first to thwart another's second. Then the tables turn.
The large monument is at Vorosmanty Square, the Poet of the Szozat, or Mihaly Vorosmanty, poet of Budapest. He wrote of 9th century Hungary, Magyar heritage, and lived in the 19th century. He is known for his inspirational heroic epics, and narrative poems. See http://www.hungarian-history.hu/lib/timeless/chapter20.htm.
