What do they think? What do they feel? How much of what we say do they understand? While many of these questions are still the subject of study, some of them can be answered. In this list there are ten incredible dog facts you didn’t know, both about our furry friends and their history on this Earth.

  1. Their Sense of Smell is Fantastic; Their Taste? Not So Much.

Anybody can tell by observing their furry friend that they have a much closer relationship to smell than we do. But just how much more refined is this ability? Dogs have 300 million olfactory receptors in their noses, while humans possess a humbling 6 million. Their sense of smell is so refined that they can detect substances at the density of one drop of liquid distributed within 20 Olympic-size swimming pools. However, we win in the taste department, coming in at having a whopping 9,000 taste buds compared to our furry friends’ 1,700. 

  1. Dogs Get Jealous – Even In Their Own Imagination

A study from the University of Auckland has recently revealed that not only do dogs get jealous of their owners, they even have the ability to get jealous in scenarios they imagine between their owner and another dog.

  1. Dogs Can See (Some) Color

A commonly held belief among people today is that dogs can only see in shades of gray, but this is not the case. While dogs are unable to differentiate between shades of red and green, seeing both instead as shades of gray, they have the full ability to see shades of yellows and blues. It is actually recommended that you use a blue ball when playing in a grassy field with your canine companion to help them differentiate between the ball and the grass. 

  1. Petting Dogs Lowers Your Blood Pressure

Recent studies published in the Journal of Behavioral Medicine show that not only is petting a dog pleasant emotionally, but it also has positive physical effects. Participants in the study had decreased blood pressure and heart rates when interacting with dogs, especially when cuddling with and petting these furry fellows. Next time you feel that blood pressure rising, seek out your kind companion.

  1. They Enjoy Music (Especially Classical)

Have you ever been listening to one of your favorite songs and stopped to wonder if little Fido was enjoying it, too? Well, now you can rest assured that he likely is. According to a study in the Journal of Veterinary Behavior, dogs in a kennel environment who were played classical music showed decreased anxiety and increased relaxation. Further studies showed that dogs seem to prefer music that is between 50-60 BPM, so if you’re making the perfect playlist for your pup pal, stick to the slower songs.

  1. They Can Navigate Subway Systems

Dogs in Moscow have been observed using the metro stations not just as shelter — but to navigate the city. Stray dogs will regularly take the subway to stops to find food, visit people, and sometimes just for fun. 

  1. In Ancient Rome, Dogs Wore Armor

While now we dress our furry friends in sweaters and booties, in Ancient Rome, it was a different story. Roman War Dogs were often suited up in plate metal armor and spiked collars and sent to fight alongside their human compatriots. The use of war dogs was not exclusive to Rome — many ancient civilizations, such as Assyria, Greece, and Sumer, used hounds of war as well.

  1. Dogs Are as Smart as a 2-Year-Old Child

While every breed of dog is different, studies have shown that overall, dogs possess roughly the same level of cognition as a 2-year-old child. Factors looked at while completing this study included spatial awareness, ability to understand language, and ability to understand basic math and numbers. Keep this in mind when interacting with your dog — they may know more than you think. 

  1. The Oldest Dog Breed In The World Has Existed Since 329 B.C.

The oldest known breed of domesticated dog, the Saluki, has existed since at least 329 B.C., with evidence that it existed as long ago as 2100 B.C. Salukis were kept by nearly every civilization in the ancient Middle East, including Egypt, Persia, and many of the nomadic Arab groups. However, their introduction to the English-speaking world is rather recent, with the first Saluki being brought into England as recently as the 1840s.

With how commonly we see dogs on a day-to-day basis, it’s easy to forget how amazing and wonderful our furry friends really are. Next time you’re hanging out with your pet pup, think about his war dog ancestors and his cousin in Moscow riding the subway to visit with friends, and give him a proud pat on the back for the fantastic creature that he is.

  1. Dogs Have a Sense of Time.

If you’re a dog owner, you probably noticed your canine friend starting to feel impatient when it’s getting close to their mealtime. Dogs have an internal mechanism, called circadian rhythm, that helps them tell the time; such that they know when they’re supposed to receive their food or when their owners are about to arrive home, even if their routine is disrupted.

Policeman: It seems you are unaware of our zero tolerance for drinking and driving.
Man: I didn’t know that. I’m not drunk.
Policeman: You were also going over the speed limit, Mr Murphy. I’m going to have to ask you to step out of your vehicle and get into my car.
Man: And what about the car?
Policeman: We’ll have the rental car towed to the agency. When you’re in our country you have to respect our rules.

]]> How elections work in Hungary? https://www.5percangol.hu/news_of_the_world/elections-hungary-2026/ Fri, 10 Apr 2026 14:36:17 +0000 https://www.5percangol.hu/?p=151367 2026 Parliamentary Elections in Hungary

Hungary will hold its next parliamentary election on 12 April 2026, using the same mixed electoral system introduced in 2012. Although the political landscape has changed dramatically since then, the structure of the voting system remains the same, combining single‑member constituencies with party‑list proportional representation.

Who Can Vote?

Every Hungarian citizen aged 18 or over has the right to vote in parliamentary elections. There are two main categories of voters:

  • Residents in Hungary: They receive two votes.
  • Hungarian citizens living abroad without a permanent Hungarian address: They receive one vote (for the party list only).

Minority voters may choose to vote for a national minority list instead of a party list.

How Many Seats Are There in Parliament?

Hungary’s National Assembly has 199 seats, unchanged since the 2012 reform:

  • 106 constituency seats (single‑member districts)
  • 93 list seats (party lists + minority lists)

Members of Parliament serve four‑year terms.

How Do the Two Votes Work?

1) Constituency Vote (106 seats)

Hungary is divided into 106 single‑member constituencies. Voters choose one candidate in their district. The candidate with the most votes wins – there is no second round.

2) Party List Vote (93 seats)

Voters also cast a vote for a party list (or a minority list). These votes determine how the 93 proportional seats are distributed.

To appear on the national list, a party must run candidates in at least 27 constituencies across 9 counties and Budapest.

Thresholds and Minority Lists

  • The threshold for entering Parliament is 5% of the national party‑list vote.
  • Joint lists have higher thresholds:
    • 10% for two‑party lists
    • 15% for lists of three or more parties
  • Minority lists do not have a percentage threshold. Instead, they must reach a “preferential quota”, which is significantly lower than the standard threshold.

How Are List Seats Allocated?

Hungary uses a compensatory system. List seats are allocated based on:

  • Party‑list votes
  • “Fragment votes” from constituencies (votes cast for losing candidates + surplus votes of winning candidates)

This system tends to favour larger parties, especially those with strong constituency performance.

Although the legal framework is the same, several practical and political factors have changed by 2026:

  • Constituency boundaries remain those introduced in 2012, but demographic shifts have made some districts significantly larger than others.
  • Hungarians abroad now participate in much higher numbers, especially from neighbouring countries.
  • The political environment has become more competitive in 2026, with new parties – most notably the Tisza Party – reshaping the landscape.
  • EU‑related rule‑of‑law debates and frozen funds have increased international attention on the election.
  • Campaigning is more digital, with social media playing a central role.

The electoral system itself, however, has not changed since 2014.

Key Vocabulary

  • ballot – a paper or electronic form used for voting
  • constituency – a geographical voting district
  • party list – a list of candidates nominated by a political party
  • threshold – the minimum percentage of votes needed to enter Parliament
  • polling station – the place where voters cast their ballots
  • exit poll – a survey of voters after they leave the polling station
  • majority – more than half of the votes
  • campaign – organised activities to persuade voters

Darling you gotta let me know
Should I stay or should I go?
If you say that you are mine
I’ll be here till the end of time
So you got to let know
Should I stay or should I go?

You’re happy when I’m on my knees
One day it’s fine and the next it’s black
So if you want me off your back
Well come on and let me know
Should I stay or should I go?

Should I stay or should I go now? 
Should I stay or should I go now? 
If I go there will be trouble 
And if I stay it will be double 
So come on and let me know 

This indecision’s bugging me 
If you don’t want me, set me free 
Exactly whom I’m supposed to be 
Don’t you know which clothes even fit me? 
Come on and let me know 
Should I cool it or should I blow? 

Should I stay or should I go now? 
If I go there will be trouble 
And if I stay it will be double 
So you gotta let me know 
Should I stay or should I go?
