Were Bulgars and Magyars related?

Tenrgi, save us all. Amin/

Except Magyars, they’re Uralic, not Turkic

[Jana]

Pretty sure the Bulgars were Turkic in nature and the Magyars were Uralic, though both did live in about the same region in Siberia indifferent time periods

Siberia? Volga banks where both lived are located in Europe.

Magyars are originally from Western Siberia and Bulgars from Pontic steppe as far as I know. Than both moved to Volga region before their migration to Danubian region. I am firm supporter of Ugric origin of Magyars but that doesn't cancel links with Bulgars, whose origins are also disputed (Turkic vs Iranic, my view is Turkic). Name of Hungary come from Onogurs, and those were most certanly Turks (Bulgar kin).

This is an off topic question, but I have some results I'd like your thoughts on but I noticed there is no way to send messages. Is there a way to open it on a friend's list?

Urals are a geographic region at the end of the day. Turkic is a meta ethnicity. Turkics live in Urals today and in the past as well.

Oi that’s what I meant I was just confusing the two

Done.

So is Uralic, it is just very large meta-family like Indo-European.

Uralic ethno-linguistically not geographically

There could also be a Croatian connection;

Croatian researchers have proposed that Kubrat of Onoguria's five sons correspond to the five brothers from White Croatia who took Avaria in 677, whereby Kuber would be Chrobatos

This question is basically ''Were Magyars Turkic once''
Answer is there might be cultural connections long ago but not even their language is Turkic.
