    Explanation: In the 11th century AD Duchy of Bohemia (part of modern Czechia), many crimes were punished with exile - itself not unusual in pre-modern judicial systems.

    … but interestingly, the destination for many of these crimes is specified as exile to Hungary, specifically.

    Is there a worse fate a Czech could imagine!?

      It would be funny if rewards were given in the same way … a vacation to Hungary … even a permanent vacation to Hungary.
