This is almost like the first time. One lifeline remaining, Pts. 250,000 up next, just that you had the 50:50 last time, now it's the expert.

This is getting serious again.

Tricky, tricky :mumble:

 

But using my history & cinema knowledge, and a dose of my own logic, I think Béla is a distinctive Hungarian name.

 

Given that back in the day, the Austro-Hungarian Empire ethnic distribution pretty much followed the administrative divisions between the two realms, Czechia Austria and that Ukrainain strip of land belonged to the German dominated realm.

 

Hungary on the other hald, lost a lot of land and still has a sizable minority in Romania, so being satisfied with equalizing my previous run, I go with option A

Well, you have tried using history knowledge before and it went wrong. That's all I am saying. :d

You insist on going with Romanian?
