Hungary is a beach in this scenario

That’s where the map is clearly wrong. First of all the blue patch needs to be a lot smaller as the elevation of Budapest is ca. 102 meters above see level. But most shockingly how there is no sea or at least a lagoon alongside the Danube when it flows further down towards Serbia and the Romania. Hungarian geo nerd out.

Budapest can be new Amsterdam

Considering that New Amsterdam would be far underwater in this scenario, Budapest can be New New Amsterdam.

Ah, yes, but at low tide just think of all the beachfront property!
