Megyye

Megyye is a term that refers to a county in Hungary. These administrative divisions are the primary subdivisions of the country, and there are 19 megyék in total, along with the capital city of Budapest, which has its own separate status as a metropolitan county. The megyék were established in the Middle Ages and have undergone various reorganizations throughout Hungarian history. Each megye is governed by a county assembly and a county chief magistrate. The capital cities of the megyék are typically the largest and most important settlements within their respective regions. The megyék play a significant role in regional development, public administration, and the provision of services. They are also important for cultural and historical identity, with each megye often possessing its own unique traditions and characteristics. The term "megye" is deeply ingrained in the Hungarian lexicon and represents a fundamental aspect of the country's administrative and geographical organization.
