Komárno is in Podunajsko. This page covers the whole eastern part of the region.

Understand edit

The city, together with today's Hungarian neighboring city Komárom, formed a quite important center, especially due to the large barracks. Today the city is the most important center of the Hungarian minority, and its German-speaking roots have not been forgotten, so many signs are in three languages.
