Name

The name of the settlement was changed from Hudo to Malo Hudo (literally, 'little Hudo') in 1953.[4] The name Hudo is derived from the adjective hud 'bad, poor' and, as in similar names (e.g., Huje), refers to poor soil quality in the region.[5] In the past the German name was Pösendorf.[2]

gollark: This is also approximately why I'm against more globalized governance integration: having multiple somewhat independent nations/states/whatever means you can test out different plans in parallel without having to *explicitly* A/B test people, which they dislike.
gollark: I'm not sure if your premise applies in realistic cases.
gollark: Sure.
