Answers:
Hamburgers were "invented" in Hamburg, Germany!.Www@FoodAQ@Com
It's not an English word originally, so any relation to another English word (like ham) is purest coincidence!. It refers to a type of patty of meat originally popularized in Hamburg, Germany a long time ago -- just like a frankfurter (a!.k!.a!. hotdog) was a type of sausage popularized in Frankfurt, Germany, about the same time!.
The original hamburger was not served on bread, by the way, but simply referred to a patty of ground meat!. In some European countries, if you want the burger on a bun, you need to order it that way, with a bun, or you'll just get the patty!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

A common theory is that the word "hamburger" originated from Hamburg, Germany!. In Hamburg it was common to put a piece of roast pork into a roll, called Rundstück warm, although this is missing the "essence" of the modern hamburger, which is ground meat!.
The hamburger as ground meat can be traced back to the time when the Mongols (c!. 1209) carried flat patties of lamb or mutton as a food source!. The saddle would tenderize the meat and the meat would be eaten raw!. It gave the Mongols the ability to carry food, and eat it all without dismounting from the horse!. When the Mongols invaded Moscow, the hamburger was also brought and in turn was adopted as a cuisine named "steak tartare" after the invading Mongols (who were also known as the Tatars)!. Later the German port of Hamburg had ships that visited a baltic (by that time Russian) port and thus brought with it the new "tartare steak" as they would later call it!. Ships from Hamburg, Germany coincidently shipped to New York also and brought what is now known as the Hamburg steak!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

Because the idea of meat and minced onion patties was originally called 'Hamburg style beef' - another name for Salisbury style beef!. Sooner or latter, someone cottoned on to the notion that it would make a rather nice sandwich, if the gravy was removed and relish was added!.
And there you have it: the hamburger!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

Hamburg is the German city which originated the sandwich!.
Introduced to America in 1904, at World's Fair in St!. Louis!.
It has nothing to do with ham; & burg means a city!.
Frankfurt was the city which put the sausage on a bun!.
It came to Coney Island around 1910!.
It became known as a hot-dog; but contains no dog-meat!.Www@FoodAQ@Com
