I really enjoy Chinese culture and I find the Chinese people for the most part absolutely astounding, sadly our governments play us against one another. If all political nonsense and greed were to be set aside, which countries do you think would be best friends, or even allied together, based on their people alone?

    Poland and Hungary have historically been very close allies since the middle ages, lots of shared culture, history, they’ve faced similar struggles over the years, and generally they’ve always held each other in pretty high regard. They each even have a little poem about how much they like each other

    Them polish version translates to something like

    Pole and Hungarian brothers be,
    good for fight and good for party.
    Both are valiant, both are lively,
    Upon them may God’s blessings be.

    The Hungarian Version

    Pole and Hungarian — two good friends,
    fighting, and drinking at the end.

    Unfortunately there’s been a lot of tension between them in recent years over the war in Ukraine, and their relationship has been deteriorating.
