Culture
cultural depth

Passport reach
what the passport opens
Hungary's passport reaches 104 destinations visa-free to Romania's 103 — Hungary opens more doors without a visa. Passport strength shifts over years of naturalisation, not months of planning, so it's a long-horizon footnote — not scored in the tally.
