Hatvan
Hatvan ( German: ''Hottwan)'' is a town in Heves County, Hungary. Hatvan is the Hungarian word for "sixty". It is the county's third most populous town following Eger and Gyöngyös. Etymology Hatvan is the Hungarian word for "sixty". It is a common urban legend that the town got this name because it is 60 km from Budapest, but in fact the name is already mentioned in medieval sources, many years before the kilometre existed; also, the actual distance between the capital and the town is closer to 50 km. Rather, the town's name likely derives from the Pecheneg root word "''chatwan''" or "''chatman''", meaning "small-tribe" or "splinter-group". This is because the Turkic Pechenegs were divided into small groups when they were settled into the early Kingdom of Hungary. History The area around Hatvan has been inhabited since the Neolithic. Archeological evidence suggests that both sides of the Zagyva river were inhabited at this point. A significant settlement took shape in the ...

Borsod County
Borsod was an administrative county (Comitatus (Kingdom of Hungary), comitatus) of the Kingdom of Hungary. The capital of the county was Miskolc. After World War II, the county was merged with the Hungarian parts of Abaúj-Torna County and Zemplén (county), Zemplén counties to form Borsod-Abaúj-Zemplén county. Etymology The name comes from the personal name ''Bors'' (an early medieval magnate) with the -d suffix used to derive place names in old Hungarian language. The personal name ''Bors'' could have derived from ''bors'' (Hungarian "pepper") and/or derived from Turkish (a theory of János Melich) or from the Slavic languages, Slavic personal name ''Boriš'' (a theory of Elemér Moór). The problem has not been sufficiently resolved yet. E.g. Lajos Kiss suggests the Turkish origin, whilst Slovak scholars have been suggesting the Slavic origin since the times of Ján Stanislav who accepted Moór's theory as more reliable and pointed to several place names with similar etymolo ...

People From Hatvan
The term "the people" refers to the public or common mass of people of a polity. As such it is a concept of human rights law, international law as well as constitutional law, particularly used for claims of popular sovereignty. In contrast, a people is any plurality of persons considered as a whole. Used in politics and law, the term "a people" refers to the collective or community of an ethnic group or nation. Concepts Legal Chapter One, Article One of the Charter of the United Nations states that "peoples" have the right to self-determination. Though the mere status as peoples and the right to self-determination, as for example in the case of Indigenous peoples (''peoples'', as in all groups of indigenous people, not merely all indigenous persons as in ''indigenous people''), does not automatically provide for independent sovereignty and therefore secession. Indeed, judge Ivor Jennings identified the inherent problems in the right of "peoples" to self-determination, as i ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
