Szolnok County (Hungarian: Szolnok vármegye, Latin: Comitatus Szolnokiensis, German: Comitat Szolnok, Szolnoker Comitat (modern spelling Komitat)) was a county in the Kingdom of Hungary between the 11th century and 1426.
[citation needed] It was made up of two disconnected parts, one in what later became Transylvania and the Partium, the other around the Tisza centred on the settlement of Szolnok.
The county was eventually split and became: A second iteration of Szolnok County, centred on the city of Szolnok and corresponding to the former Külső-Szolnok, was created in 1850[1] following the Revolutions of 1848 in the Austrian Empire.
It was created out of the south-eastern part of Heves and Külső-Szolnok County [hu], separated from the other half – Heves County – mostly by the Tisza.
Szolnok would again be separated from Heves in 1876, when it became part of Jász-Nagykun-Szolnok County, which also included the former Jászság and Nagykunság; Tisza-Füred however remained with Heves County until after World War II and the formation of the modern Jász-Nagykun-Szolnok County.
