How did Hungarians turn white if Magyars where Central Asian?

Most Hungarians look just like their neighboring countries, European, and not Asian at all. But the Magyars were Central Asian. The Hungarian language is very similar to Khanty, they are a small nation living in Russia. They may be the original Hungarians that "didn't leave". They are Asian:

I am confused how the Magyars completely influenced the language of Hungary but seemed to have no genetic impact? Only 4% of Hungarians have Asian DNA.

How did the early Nazi's fund the SA?

Basically the title. I've been looking into the history of he early Nazi Party. Around the time I'm looking into, the NSDAP is headed by a young Hitler who is amassing power and spreading propoganda. The SA is developing into the primary paramilitary arm of the growing party. Where did the SA get the funding to be a fairly large and functional paramilitary force? They seem to have arms and uniforms, and enough training(?) to be effective and disciplined. Who supplied the SA?

How did internal politics affect the Arab coalition in the 6 day war?

What are some good books on the situation of the Arab states during that period? I've been reading some books lately on the 6 day war but there's been a higher emphasis on the Israeli side of politics and less on the tension between the members of the Arab coalition. I would like to know more about how the war in Yemen, the stress between Syria and Egypt, and the influence of Iraqi troops in Jordan effected the way the war played out.

Question about 1970s and 1980s US domestic terrorism

During this time there was a massive wave of domestic terrorism perpetrated by numerous white supremacist organizations. Many crimes were committed and many lives were lost.

My question is this: Why has this relatively recent historical phenomena largely not talked about today? I don't remember this being in my history textbook, and I almost never see this referenced or discussed at all. Why is this?

Has the percent of incarcerated people of color increased since Johnny Cash played at Folsom Prison or were only white men allowed to see him perform?

A recent post on r/oldschoolcool showed Johnny Cash playing for a crowd of all white prisoners and I was just wondering if this was an accurate representation of who was incarcerated in the 1960s or not and, if so, has the overall percentage of incarcerated people of color increased or not?

Why is there a hole in the Bremen City Hall?

Why is there a tiny hole in the Bremen City Hall? Next to the Bremen Market Square. It leads through the wall inside the Bremen City Hall. The Bremen City Hall is one of the most important examples of Brick Gothic architecture in Europe. Since 1973, it is protected by the monument protection act. In July 2004 the building was added to the list of UNESCO World Heritage Sites.

Why is the sun associated with gold and the moon with silver, and why is it reversed in Kalevala?

I asked this long ago but didn't quite get a reply.

From what I can tell, the "common" association of sun<->gold and moon<->silver is connected to alchemy, though how that started is a bit unclear to me. This connection seems to pop up in European folklore a bit all over the place.

The one exception I've found however is in the Kalevala epic, where the sun is associated with silver and the moon with gold. Is that a Finnish thing, or what gives?

Are there any specific cultural, political or social factors that made Russia such a hotspot for anarchist philosophy?

This may be an assumption... but I am reading about Eastern European immigration to Britain in the late 19th C. and anarchism/socialism seems very prominent amongst the immigrants, to the disdain of the Anglo-Jewry. Lots of anarchist intellectuals appear to be from Russia, was this a reaction to the Tsarist state apparatus or something else?

Succession of Bernadotte (King Carl John) to the Swedish Throne: Is this as unusual as it seems?

So, from what I can tell, he was a French soldier, became Prince of a small Italian state, and was then elected as King of Sweden despite a)not being Swedish, b)having no links to the Swedish, c)still at this point being a senior French military officer. Is this as bizarre as it seems, or something that would seem quite normal to the Swedish? And how did Bernadotte feel about this; he was a Frenchman with a tattoo saying "Death to all Kings", after all.
