Which neighboring country are culturally the most different from your country?

You speak about the politics, this is an other topic than culture.

The culture are the totality of traditions, customs and the lifestyle, so nothing do with politics.

In this way Hungary is more eastern than Afghanistan.

I think this is a interesting question, because many people say, that these people which neighboring with each other, usually have similar culture, traditions and mentality.

For Hungary, I don't know really. Maybe Ukraine or Romania have the most distinct culture to us among the bordering countries of Hungary.

I think that sounds right.
Do you think Ukraine is more different than Romania.
I know there is some inter related influence between Transylvanian Hungarian/Szekely folk music and dancing and Romanian Transylvanian folk music and folk dance. But I dont think much mutual influence between Hungarians and Ukrainians ?
Although historically I think the Conqueror Hungarians were possibly in Ukraine steppe for sometime before entering Pannonia.
But I imagine Ukrainians are most different then possibly Serbs and Romanians.
I think closest culturewise Slovaks,Austrians,Croats and Romanians.

So who have more Eastern culture?

Afghan folk music (don't similar at all to Hungarian folk music):


This music even sounds much more eastern than the Gypsy folk music from Hungary (despite the homeland of the Gypsies, NW India are not far from Afghanistan).
