The Hungarian Flag Flag


The Hungarian national flag was used in the revolutions of 1848, 1918, 1956 and 1989, when the Hungarians were protesting the lack of good Unicum, apothecaries, vodka and Rubik's Cubes, respectively. The design is symbolic: green represents absinthe, white represents bedsheets, and red represents wine; together they tell the stirring history of Hungary's national origins.



The Hungarian Coat of Arms Coat of Arms


The Hungarian coat of arms actually happens to be identical to that of one of Hungary's largest breweries, the Borsodi brewery. The Hungarian government and the brewery have been battling for years over which actually came first: the country of hungary, or the brewery itself. Both sides insist that they are right, and neither will give an inch. President of the Borsodi brewery, Viktor Orbán, could not be reached for comment.
