"Remember this wonderful night we had on 22nd April, 1877."

Probably boring (but tru) historical bg:
On this very day a Turkish delegation came to Budapest, bringing several Corvinas with them, which are basically our national treasure. King Matthias I had these priceless books in his library, but then they got scattered away. But the ones the Turks took with them, they gave back as a gift - as you can see, just before the Turko-Russian war broke out.

This was a wonderful gesture, and cause the Habsburgs were all pushy about the subject, the Hungarian-Turkish friendship was stressed even more. There were HUGE crowds and parades, everybody wanted to see the delegation from Temesvár (now in Romania, back then on the South-East border or Hungary) till, of course, Budapest. Everything was about the Turko-Hungarian friendship/relationship.

Like, our greatest novelists, Mór Jókai held an extremely laudatory speech about the Turks. No, like, today it almost seems ridiculous.
No, you don't understand, unless you're Hungarian.
Like, JÓKAI. Holding a speech like that. Man.

Seems to me Eliza supported extramarital relationships *coughcough*
