THE REINS OF GOVERNMENT – WHO HELD THEM AND WHAT DID THEY DO?ROYAL COUNTIES (late 10 th c – late 13 th c): Each county was the responsibility of a county head,whose seat was a castle - a quasi-capital of the county. The county head was the representative ofthe king, the judge, and the supreme law observance supervisor on his respective territory. Hecollected the fees and payments in kind made by the subjects for the king, gave two thirds ofthem to the king and kept the rest. His castle had special fortification and was able to withstandlong-term besieges. The royal county divided into castle districts; official language was Latin.Royal County: Latin compagus civitatis / comitatus comitatusHungarian: vármegye / megye / várispánságSlovak: kráľovský / komitát / župa / hradské španstvoRoyal County head: Latin: comes civitatis / comes comitatusHungarian: ispánSlovak: županGerman: GespanRoyal County Deputy:Latin (only): comes castri / castellaniNOBLE COUNTIES (late 13 th c – 1848): In the late 13th century, the royal counties gradually turnedinto noble counties maintaining the same borders, duties – support the king militarily – and thetitle of county head. The noble county was an autonomous entity of lower gentry. It was led bythe comes who was appointed by the king for a specific amount of time with the right to recall,and (mostly) by his deputy, appointed by the king, subject to increasing influence of the comesfrom the 15 th c on. The comes were the supreme feudal lords of the county, usually held higheroffices such as Palatine or Treasurer and beginning in the 14 th c were the county castellan for thecastle. Beginning in the13th c, the real county administrator was the deputy county heads; theypresided over the county assembly, supervised the police, regulated and collected taxes andmaintained bridges and roads. The deputy became the effective county castellan or held anequally influential post from the 15 th c.Noble County: Latin: comitatusHungarian: vármegye / megyeSlovak: stolica / župaNoble County head: Latin: comesHungarian: ispánSlovak: županGerman: GespanNoble County Deputy: Latin: comes curialis / vicecomesHungarian: alispán / vicispánSlovak: podžupan / vicišpánGerman: Untergespan / VizegespanCOUNTIES (1849 – 1918)Main county head: Latin: comes (supremus)Hungarian: főispánSlovak: hlavný županGerman: Obergespan11b
