History

Between 1954 and 1971, the four largest regional cities received the megyei jogú város title. These were Debrecen, Miskolc, Pécs and Szeged. Then, from 1971 to 1990, the four precedent cities and Győr had a new status called county city (megyei város) which was given in 1989 to three other cities: Salgótarján, Nyíregyháza and Kecskemét. After the end of Communism, this status was deleted and replaced by the urban counties as until 1971. The eight megyei város and twelve more cities became megyei jogú város.
