434 Hungaria
Hungaria (minor planet designation: 434 Hungaria) is a relatively small asteroid orbiting in the inner asteroid belt. It is an E-type (high-albedo) asteroid. It is the namesake of the Hungaria asteroids, which orbit the Sun on the inside of the 1:4 Kirkwood gap, standing out of the core of the asteroid belt. It was discovered by Max Wolf on 11 September 1898 at the University of Heidelberg. It was named after Hungary, which hosted an astronomical meeting  in 1898 in Budapest. It is thought that there may be a genetic connection between 434 Hungaria and 3103 Eger and the aubrites. See also
