*HUNGARIAN THROAT SINGING INTENSIFIES* When you thought Koifish was kill.... HE WAS NOT! I am back from my January break, feeling better than ever! Lots of big changes coming, VERY EXCITING! Next up on the A-Z in Alfonso of Spain! Make sure to subscribe to not miss it! :D

Petition for koifish to play as Chieftain Shujah İbn Zegb of Waddan!

Comment bashing appears from a hungarian: Álmos's name means "The man with a dream"... yeah... the traditional story goes by, that his mother, Emese dreamt about a totemistic spirit, the Turul bird copulating with her, then her womb was torn open after the act a small stream of river appeared, with great kings standing next to the water, from whom the first was Álmos. Álmos became a de facto leader during a time, when the hungarian tribes fled from a pecheneg invasion, but his son, Árpád was elected as leader by the 7 hungarian tribes in a blood oath. The tribal council decided, that they will move into the currently barely habited Carpathian Basin from the Pecheneg invasion, secured an alliance with some other tribes and got through the Carpathians. Álmos was too old to lead them, so he was ritualistically sacrificed before the hungarian horde finished it's crossing through the mountain. The hungarians conquered the territory, it's really complicated, since it involved a bunch of fuckery from a moravian succession crisis and the eastern franks calling them in as mercenaries, many of these things are still heavily debated. The thing that matters, that Árpád probably died fending off a german invasion in the 907 Battle of Pressburg. From that point, the Carpathians were secured by the hungarians and a long rivaling warlord era came, when hungarian tribes raided the neighboring countries, sometimes called in as auxiliaries by infighting german and italian rulers. In 955 Otto, the first Emperor of the Holy Roman Empire destroyed a large hungarian raiding host in the Battle of Lechfeld. During the battle many of the warlords and their warriors perished, what caused the Árpád family line to be able to dominate tribal politics again and secure centralized power. A House Árpád ruler, called Prince Géza started to reform the country into a western catholic one, while still maintained some pagan elements, but his son, Stephan I "the Saint" got balls deep into it. They story you refer to about the conversion of Árpád fighting against Álmos is not a thing. I think you misplaced it with the Koppány revolt. When Géza died, Stephan followed him as prince, but he was immediately questioned by the greek orthodox and pagan tolerant Koppány, who was the oldest living member of the Árpád family. Koppány revolted and was crushed by hungarian catholic and german troops, then Stephan began extensive and fanatical christian conversion efforts to root out paganism. During this effort, the Pope recognized him as a person worthy of a crown, so in new years eve of 1000/1001, he was crowned as the first king of Hungary. And... that's it.

13:08 That. was. GLORIOUS!

Finally starting form A! Btw you pronounced 'Magyar' very good, it basically Hungarian in Hungarian (like Deutsch in German). I have know idea from where they got the spelling 'Mogyer'. We don't even use that 'e' letter with 2 dots. Cheers from Hungary!

The Magyars are my favorite start. You can pretty much do anything with them.

13:10 Koifish almost killed me, made me choke on my food, Naughty Naughty

Just did this character! It was such a fun run. I really enjoyed focusing on the Eastern European area

Koifish is such a beautiful youtube. It never feels like I'm listening to a mailbox when I watch one of his videos. And even though his jokes are somewhat bunger, they're still funny.

It feels weird when Koifish isnt trying to convert people to Asartu

For anyone looking for this game but with a harder start you can actually play as the avars. For some reason if are playing as the avar duke in the carpathian basin and almos wins the invasion he will not take your land or titles but will take your vassals. So after he gives out counties he will give you all the vassals since you are duke of bihar and visegrad. from there you can subjugate the sloviens and then claim throne because you have 50% of hungary. You can win after that and then form a hybrid magyar-turkic culture and can choose whether or not you want to be tengri or taltoist.

Fun fact: Hungarian and Finnish belong to the same language group. They both originate from the ural mountains.

Props for the editor in this video

Woot! New Koifish video! I’m really enjoying this series of doing all the starts, and I’m very excited I see you do a Spain start with Alfonso and get to interact with the Struggle a bit more!

Almos is a great start and really good way to get started with playing in Ironman and getting achievements.

YEEEEEETTTT I HAVE BEEN WAITING FOR NEW VIDEO!! LETS GOOOO

Oh, Koifish is doing an A-Z? Nice KZfaq moment, I'm excited :D

Bojler eladó, thanks for playing as Álmos.

Köszönöm szépen nagyon jó videó :D

I just witnessed the beggining of a true Hungarian-Viking friendship! Üdvözöllek barátom! Also did you know that our first king, Saint Stephen I. had Varegian guards, who were basically vikings? They were a very good selection, because they didn't speak german, or hungarian, so they could not have been bribed. Greetings from hungary!

Hungary in ck3 I think is proof that there needs to be an "Eastern Lords" dlc or something that allows Turkic and Mongollic people in the tribal era to migrate (like a varangian adventure but it converts the culture)

Continue it Please. always enjoy the videos. love from Alabama

Your Á pronounciation is good, but the S is a bit weak. S in hungarian is more like Shh. Normal S is written as "sz" in hungarian. Yes, we have dual and triple-glyph letters. Other fun ones are "cs" (tsh), "dzs" (dj) and "zs" (j). Now there is ö which you know already. Now ő is the same but longer. Same with ü and ű. Overall the Hungarian alphabet has like 44 letters, slightly more than the 26 letters of English. To be fair English could extract "oo" and "ou" as individual double-glyph letters if they could just decide on standard usage rules for them.

Koifish, there are still many characters left!!! I just hope this A to Z series has not been abandoned.

0:47 Beautiful pronunciation, mister Koifish

Koifish as a hungarian im just wana thank you to bring some joyfull moment that evening thank you. (psi.: or as we say köszönöm)

fun fact: there is also a list of interesting characters on the ck3 wiki

The Magyers are definitely one of the most interesting starts in the game

20:13 I personally wouldn't mess with an army with an ☢️ banner but good stuff

Duchess Matilda is my favourite starting character from the selections, its so fun because u can do so much

Mrs. Koifish watching Koifish call Jarl Haesteinn his one and only love

When i played as almos and formed hungary i combined hungarian culture with avars that was left there. The combination of konni raids and horse lords is just perfect. Also granting pardons/releasing from prison gives hooks was very useful too and it let me feudalize much quicker cuz avars had some tech i needed

Definitely continue Koifish!

Krstjani is actually one of the best Christian faiths to be converted as the Kingdom of Hungary (and later the Empire of Carpathia) simply because it holds a very important holy site Ezstergom - formally the seat of the primate of the Catholic Church (or ahistorically if I'm specific)

26:23 Devious sound

As a Hungarian fan, I never knew I wanted this video to exist :D

Yes koifish coming thru!

I found ur chanel 1 months ago and i love it (btw im from hungary)

Im from Hungary, aaand when you say MAGYAR that was satisfying 😅

It was Stephen I who christianized Hungary, he was the son Géza the Great-grandson of Árpád.

Koifish if you play heasting again youd you make a kingdom of only heasting and the capital being in hastings and every bobles name can only be heasting and you will make the heasting culture and stuff like that Surely that would help with your addiction

Might you also try Kallar Shah in Kabul 87?He has one of the most interesting starts as you can go for Hindu,Buddhist,ZUnist,Mazdayasna or Islam,along with sdentary or nomadic lifestyles(especially since you can revive the Huns with RICE mod)One of the most fun characters I have ever found.

Haha I can’t unsee Vermin Supreme now

"who is the best Aryan?" "NO!" Lmao

good job

*Insert Koifish stealing land from nobles music*

As a Hungarian I loved the video😉

My father is Hungarian Thank you for making this video

From what I learned about Hungarians and alcohol after going to Hungary: they are a wine people. Seriously, wine is apparently Hungary's best kept secret.

"please join me, i'm not asking" 😂😂

22:37 At least your getting happier.

Just got the recent dlc, tried this start and was immediately at war. Was this a recent change or is my game bugged?

I played as Hungary in 1012, I know a little less development work, but I formed West Slavia when I claimed Poland and took them out. It was a mighty Empire, that is, until the Mongolians actually conquered all the way through Byzantine, that's when I knew it was game over and quit lol

Chieftain Shujah Ibn Zegb kind of reminds me of someone, I just can't place my finger on it.

Koifish, the income tax law you were thinking about has been implemented in Poland🇵🇱. We don't need to pay any income tax until 26 unless we get another additional legal identity (like starting a company, or something). 10/10 would recommend

Real Chads use the Hungarian invasion, then change to Norse and do a prepared invasion into Byzantines

Ma boi, your Hungarian pretty good for a foreinger

The best choice is to become that weird Bosnian sect, the reason? 1 it’s funny, 2 you have a holy site in your main kingdom and like 2 more in the neighboring tribal areas

Got kinda Power Hungary, eh?

hello koifish can you do some more bannerlord

We do say magyar! Good job koifish!

I'm always Hungary for another Koifish video. :^)

How is the best Arian? Koifish you cheeky baka. :D

Damn Koifish can fuckin' narrate holy shit

i love you!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

9:27 The Zs is pronounced like the s in pleasure or the g in genre

*Instert some hello/finally early comment*

Play as king boris!!

WE have an alcohol that is very strong, it's called pálinka. We drink beer tho.

Hmm yes when Hungary to Carpathian Empire?

and your videos ofcourse

Bonjour Koifish

as a hungarian, i approve

A glass of vodka…that’s a Hungarian cocktail right? Not too far off. Not too far off

riding fish

it was almost perfect when you said magyar

Giga chad

please keep this save going ;(

Team "Simp for Matilda" drop a like here.

11:36 "Do we want to tie our faith to the Catholics, or the Orthodox?" *clears throat* "I think I'm gonna go for the latter." *chooses the former*

Surprisingly the Hungarians are more into wine than beer

I want to see someone take over the world. Or most of it. Roman Empire ;) SOmething

Bro plz continue bannerlord game of thrones mod gameplay series.

Am Hungary ja Magyar very good video am fucking like it you the best videos

Hi koifish

Personal opinion, the promote christian settlement decision is trash, what I did instead was hybridizing with the vlach culture, getting 3 free innovations, and I got to keep the horse lords + konni raids (horse archer + light cavalry goes brrr)

Imagine not been Uralic. This post is made by Hungarian horselords gang

Lore of Can This BROKEN NOMAD Create the STRONGEST HUNGARIAN EMPIRE in Crusader Kings 3 momentum 100

why wouldn’t make a carthpian empire

ur supposed to convert 125 years later

Sycophant means someone who praises and flatters you a lot, not Psychopath.

Macar is actually kinda correct

Hungary. The strange Finno-Ugric exclave of Eastern Europe surrounded by Slavs. And the only non-Slavic nation they border, a Romance exclave, is their arch-enemy. It's a sad existence.

Calling Álmos a broken nomad was mad

Csak a magyar grrrrrrr...!! 🥰🇭🇺

Some times, even hungarians can't pronounce it corretly

Maybe idk

I'm gonna from Hungary

Hungarian Amy Schumer should write a book that the mongol Hungarians are clearly more Aryan than the Slav Bulgarians because they lost at a recent Christian throat singing competition

Bro idk about others, but those horsed hungarian archers units ruins my Great Moravia gameplay and i can't do anything, literally oblitetates my entire army.
