There never were anything like "Catholic Serbs". Hungarians used to deisgnate "Bunjevci" as "Catholic Serbs" for some reason only known to them, but the fact is they never were Serbs nor are today....only Croats and recently a part of them designates themselves as separate ethnictiy "Bunjevci" under political pressure from Belgrade.

They are only summed up, being of the same language and cultural heritage, and hence the word 'brothers' describing the Orthodoxes of the same origin in Hungary.

They are not summed up....it's clear Austrians and Hugnarians made distinction between. Furthemore we never had the "same language", very similar, only part of the same diasystem yes.
