I was about to say the exact same thing I think it's because of WW2, where Hungary fought on the Axis side, but they have never actually fought against each other face to face. I know Hungarian history quite well, yet I can't think of a single battle between us and Poland. We were fighting on the same side in every war since our countries were born until 1939 but still

[@janoslegyenfennajanoshegyen]

Or maybe it resembles the polish soldiers who fought in the hungarian freedom fighting of 1848/49 Like, it doesn't necessarily mean áll of those nations were their enemies, right? Poland has a good friendship with Lithuania too btw, even though they might have had some territorial disputes like 700 years ago
