Summary: Nice try...
Review: It is really fascinating, how american people think about our region... I have to tell, that I have some wrong feelings about reading this book, but it is far better that I excepted. In the In-game terms everithing is all right. I find the story quite well. But there is some great problem with the history... If someone is interested in early Hungarian history, I gladly tell to him/her more about it, but just the core: 1) the so-called dako-roman continuity theory - whichis in the book, too - is laughable. The first sign of the "roman" really: vlach people is about the 13th.century in Transylvania. they were sheperds not serfs, and have quite wide liberties. 2) i know, that the ethnical struggle is because of dramatically purposes, but I waited for a short column, which said about the true problem: that there was no "race" "ethnicum" before the 18th. century. Nationalism in hungary was invented by that time. Before that there was a "Hungaro-mind": every people in the country regardless of nation(this word was not exsist), language, religion were the part of the Crown of Hungary. Rivalies were bethween nobles and peasants, or bethween nobles, or bethween different countries, but NOT in bethween "races". this is the inventment of the modern area, and sorrowly it affects most of the people of this region -today... But despite of this the book is really great!

Ps.: If you want to make an other book, which contains hungarian names, please try to find somebody, who can write them right down.:)) Ps2.: Sorry for my wrong English - I know it far to be acceptable in high societies.
