Mohács
Mohács (; Croatian and Bunjevac: "Mohač"; ; ; ) is a town in Baranya county, Hungary on the right bank of the Danube. Etymology. The name probably comes from the Slavic "*Mъchačь","*Mocháč": "mъchъ" (moss, Hungarian "moha" is a loanword from Slavic/) + the Slavic suffix "-ačь", like Slovak "Mochnáč" or Czech "Macháč". See 1093/1190/1388 "Mohach". History. Two famous battles took place in the vicinity of Mohács: These battles represented the beginning and end, respectively, of the Ottoman domination of Hungary. In Roman times there was a camp on the banks of the Danube near Mohács. In the medieval Kingdom of Hungary, Mohács formed  part of the historical Baranya county, and during Ottoman rule it functioned as the administrative seat of the Sanjak of Mohács, an Ottoman administrative unit. After the Habsburgs took the area from the Ottomans, Mohács was included in the restored Baranya county. In 1910 the population of the Mohács district numbered 56,909 people, of whom 21,951 spoke German, 20,699 Hungarian, 4,312 Serbian, and 421 Croatian. Another 9,600 inhabitants were listed as speaking "other languages" (presumably Bunjevac and Šokac). Until the end of World War II, Danube Swabians comprised the majority of the inhabitants - called locally "Stifolder", because their ancestors came  in the 17th and 18th centuries from Fulda (district). Most of the former German settlers were expelled to Allied-occupied Germany and Allied-occupied Austria in 1945-1948, in accordance with the 1945 Potsdam Agreement. Events. Every spring, the town hosts the annual Busójárás carnival. Demographics. According to the 2011 census, the total population of Mohács was 17,808, of whom there were 15,842 (84.2%) Hungarians, 1,723 (9.7%) Germans, 700 (3.9%) Croats, and 537 (3%) Romani. 14% of the total population did not declare their ethnicity.
