		Cumania is a name formerly used to designate several distinct lands in Central and Eastern Europe inhabited by and under the military dominance of the Cumans, a nomadic tribe of Western Kipchaks also known as the Polovtsians.
		Cumania was primarily a political name, referring to the leading, integrating tribe or clan of the confederacy or state.
		Cumania was also preserved as part of the Roman Catholic ecclesiastical structure with a "Diocese of Cumania" existing until 1523 in what is now Romania, long after the Cumans ceased to be a distinct group in the area.

	Cumania Information
		Cumania is a name formerly used to designate the lands inhabited and under the military dominance of the Cumans/Kipchaks/Polovtsians, a Turkic tribe living in Eastern Europe, in the 11th and 12th centuries.
		Later, for a short time period, in Western sources Cumania also referred to the area in eastern Wallachia and southern Ukraine (centered on the lowlands of Bugeac and Baragan), referring to the area where the first contact between the Cumans and the western states took place, and where, later, the Cumans would accept Catholic Christianity.
		The disappearance of the military entity did not mean the end of the term Cumania, which was still preserved as part of the ecclesiastical structure until 1523, to refer to the Roman Catholic "Diocese of Cumania", long after the Cumans ceased to be a distinct group in the area.

		Cumania is a name formerly used to designate several distinct lands in Central and Eastern Europe inhabited by and under the military dominance of the Cumans, a nomadic tribe of Western Kipchaks also known as the Polovtsians.
		Cumania was also preserved as part of the Roman Catholic ecclesiastical structure with a "Diocese of Cumania" existing until 1523 in what is now Romania, long after the Cumans ceased to be a distinct group in the area.
		So, at that moment, Hungarian and Papal documents use the name Cumania to refer to the land between the eastern border of the lands of Seneslau and the land of the Brodnici (Buzău, southern Vrancea and southern Galaţi): that is Cumania meant, more or less, Muntenia.

		The sand-plateau of Little Cumania (the geographical name of this district of South-Central Hungary) is one of the most diversified sceneries of the Great Hungarian Plain.
		As a result of the rapid development the Court of Justice of the District of Little Cumania was established here in 1753, so the town became the centre of 8 Cumanian settlements and 34 farmsteads.
		When Little Cumania was incorporated in the country administration system of Hungary in 1876 and the independent status of the district ceased to exist, also Kiskunfélegyháza lost a lot of its significance as a cultural and economic centre.

		Naturally enough, Dašt-i Qipčaq or Cumania was not known to the various sources in precise terms, but as a pars pro toto; the Muslim sources meant the eastern parts of Dašt-i Qipčaq, while the Russian and Western sources had the western parts of Cumania in mind.
		At the beginning of the thirteenth century, for instance, when the Cuman missions of the Dominicans began to work their way to the east of the Carpathian Basin, Cumania was predominantly the territory of today’s Wallachia and Moldavia, while its eastern frontiers were rather loose.
		It is important to note that, while Plano Carpini did not define the eastern border of Cumania, Benedictus Polonus, who was his companion during the journey, clearly states in his own travel account that the eastern border of Cumania is the river Yayik (i.e.

		Although the privileges of the inhabitants of the JÃ¡szkunsÃ¡g region [Jazygian-Cumania, consisting of the areas of Jazygia, Greater Cumania and Lesser Cumania] had been reinforced more than once by the palatine and the emperor, in 1702 the territory was mortgaged by the royal court in Vienna to the Teutonic Knights.
		The renewed serfdom of the formerly free peasants of the region was a major factor in the town’s enthusiasm for the insurrection led by Ferenc RÃ¡kÃ³czi against the Habsburgs (1703-1711).
		Halas was the centre of Lesser Cumania until 1754 when its status as seat of the regional administration was lost due to the town’s intransigently Protestant attitude.

	Csángó: storia della rumenizzazione della minoranza ungherese di Moldavia (Romania): I ...
		Sembrava che la Cumania ungherese (dal 1229 i re d'Ungheria si fregiarono del titolo di "Rex Cumaniae") dovesse diventare una solida realtà.
		Nuove popolazioni di lingua ungherese e tedesca di religione romano-cattolica (sottoposti al vescovo di Transilvania e alla Propositura di Szeben), giunsero nella Cumania occidentale, abitata da popolazioni slave e valacche di religione greco-ortodossa, oltre che a Cumani, Asiani e Mongoli a prevalenza ancora pagani.
		Mancando però, sia all'Ungheria che alle altre potenze, la forza necessaria per annettersi definitivamente la regione, agli inizi del XIV secolo si vennero a formare due nuove realtà politiche nuove: l'Ungro-Vlachia (con capitale a Campulung e, successivamente, a Curtea de Arges) e la Moldavia (con capoluogo Baia, più tardi Radaucand e quindi Suceava).

		To prevent the invasion of this territory of Cumania by foreign people and to protect the Csángós, in 1225 the Hungarian King ENDRE II established a military presence of Hungarian mercenaries and their families, who lived and later intermarried with their Csángó kinfolk.
