context_section_description: In 1547, Royal Hungary was divided for military and partly also administrative purposes in two captaincies-general (Hungarian: főkapitányságok,  Slovak: hlavné kapitanáty): 
  Cisdanubia (largely present-day Slovakia)
  Transdanubia (the remaining Royal Hungary).
  Later on, these captaincies were further subdivided.
  In 1553 and 1578, southern and southeastern regions were split off into the Military Frontier and were de facto no longer part of the Kingdom.
  Also, after 1606 there were the following captaincies-general:
  Captaincy of Upper Hungary (eastern Slovakia and adjacent northeastern present-day Hungary, part of present-day northern Romania and part of Carpathian Ruthenia, created 1563)
  Captaincy of Lower Hungary (western and central Slovakia, created 1563)
  Captaincy of Győr (territories between Lake Balaton and river Danube)
  Captaincy of Kanizsa (western Hungary)
  Captaincy of Croatia (western Croatia)
  Captaincy of Slavonia (northern Croatia)
