A Few Words About the Hungarians, the Counts and A Few Other Things

historical overview, Murska SobotaAbstract
Before the region of Prekmurje was joined to the Kingdom of Serbs, Croats and Slovenes, Sóbota had the status of a semi-rural borough counting no more than 3,000 inhabitants. Despite its smallness, Sóbota was the scene of numerous political disputes between the Slovenes and the Hungarians on one side, and the Jews and the Catholics on the other. The only family which managed to surpass all these differences and capture the sympathies of all the inhabitants of Sóbota in the period before World War I were the counts of Szápáry. The cultural development of Sóbota began at the end of the 19th century and was closely orchestrated by the local rich, while the town's economic development did not commence until the period between the wars.
