On the reddit comments some user wrote the address format for Russia is wrong on this map, they use big-endian as well.
Also Hungary is the only country in Europe where we use big endianness in names, aka Eastern name order: surname first, firstname second.
I'm with Hungary for once, big to little is how numbers work as well so it makes the most sense to me
Hungary also uses big endian for names iirc. Like Doe John
