VOLCANIC HUNGARY: THE SMITHSONIAN VOLCANO DATABASE

With earthquakes and long dormant volcanos erupting and seemingly linked, I thought I would do some research into VOLCANIC HUNGARY, knowing that the Tokaj area and wine industry is often cited as the grape vines benefitting from the soil and taste of the wine. 

FIRST THE SMITHSONIAN! SMITHSONIAN NATURAL HISTORY- VOLCANOS - HUNGARY

Volcano Name

Volcanic 

Region

Primary Landform

Bakony-Balaton Highland Central European Volcanic Province Cluster
Little Hungarian Plain Central European Volcanic Province Cluster
Nograd-Southern Slovakia

THESE LAST WERE ACTIVE WHEN DINOSAURS WALKED THE EARTH.. the Pleistocene period.

THESE ARE CONSIDERED EXTINCT VOLCANOS, however, consider this: In Russia the Krasheninnikov Volcano awoke and erupted after at least 400 years dormant - some articles said 600 years... The eruption came after an 8.8 earthquake which lead to tsunami warnings.
