Are the Slavs an invasive species?

[anotherlife]

An invasive species of a fauna is called a species, that moves to occupy an area that it didn't occupy before, and crowds out the earlier indigenous species of that area into starvation.

The Slavs entered Europe in the 6th century, coincidentally to the collapse of the Roman Empire and crowded out all earlier inhabitants of the land. Today, no Slavonic country has any other language or folklor surviving within their territories.

The German Teutonic nights, as well as all neighbors of the Slavs fought continuously for centuries to contain them, yet unsuccessfully. Despite of all their efforts, modern Europe has the overwhelming majority of its land area under the control of one or another Slavonic administration, and only the western strip, the Atlantic coast is not yet fully slavonized.

Why are we not concerned with this fact? Didn't Stalin's marshal Zhukov already warn everybody that it only takes his army two weeks to march from Berlin to London?

So why are we eager to give more European countries for the Slavs to gobble up? We handed Hungary over to the Slavs in 1920. We gave them the Italian east Venice too. Then we handed half of Germany to the Slavs in 1945. Why would the Slavs stop here then and not go all the way?

There has been a great deal of Slavicisation, especially where once Germans and Italians lived e.g. Sudetenland, the Adriatic part of the Balkans, etc., but they were never successful in Hungary and Romania.

Finally, someone knows history.

The case of Romania is interesting though, because their words seem over 50 % Slavonic at this time, including their word "yes" which is "da" the same as in Russian. Probably the Romanian language is a Slavonic adaptation of ancient Latin.

Also, in the case of Hungary, slavicization seems to be organized politically, by moving the borders of Hungary south and north concentrically around the capital Budapest. The slices that they take out of Hungary become fully slavonized in ~ 50 years, as evident in Slovakia, that encompasses north Hungary, all lands starting from the northern district of the capital Budapest there. Very interesting strategy.

Hungary isn't "Slavonic". Hungarian isn't even remotely related to the languages around it. It's not even Indo-European. Its closest linguistic relative is in Estonia, and then Finland.

Romanian is, as its name implies, a Romance language, derived from Latin. Geographically, surrounded by Slavic languages and obviously the elephant in that room is Russia right next door -- it's going to absorb a good number of Slavic phonology. That's natural anywhere.
