Encyclopedia Britannica - Main :: LUP-MAL
MAGYARS , the name of the dominant race in
Hungary
 , or Hungarians proper. Though they have become physically assimilated to the western peoples, they belong in origin and language to the Finno-Ugrian (q.v.) division of the Ural-Altaic race. They form barely half of the
population
  of
Hungary
 , but are by far the largest and most compact of all its racial groups.
Magyar is the
official
  language of Hungary, the
official
  name of which (Magyarorzag, or "
country
  of the Magyars ") enshrines the Magyar claim to predominance. While all Magyars are properly Hungarians, all Hungarians are not necessarily Magyars. " Hungarian " may be used as a generic
term
  covering all the various races of Hungary, while " Magyar " is strictly specific to a single
group
 . The Magyars themselves, indeed, sometimes apply the name Magyarorzag to Hungary " proper, " excluding Croatia-Slavonia, the whole
kingdom
  being called Magyarbirodalom, the Magyar
monarchy
  or
realm
