Budapest. The counties are further subdivided into 174 districts (Script error: No such module "Lang"., singular: Script error: No such module "Lang".). The capital Budapest is subdivided into 23 districts (Script error: No such module "Lang"., singular: Script error: No such module "Lang".).[1]
There are 25 cities with county rights (Script error: No such module "Lang"., singular: Script error: No such module "Lang".), sometimes called urban counties. The local authorities of these towns have extended powers but they are not independent territorial units.
The current system of counties has evolved from medieval fiefdoms of the Kingdom of Hungary; each fiefdom was ruled from a castle (Hungarian: Script error: No such module "Lang".).
