They formed the basis for the women's rights movement in the 19th century and the feminist movements during the 20th and 21st centuries.

Komárom County
Komárom (Hungarian: ; or ; , later ; ) is a city in Hungary on the south bank of the Danube in Komárom-Esztergom County. Komárom fortress played an important role in the Hungarian Revolution of 1848 and many contemporary English sources refer to it as the Fortress of Comorn.
