    @@milanrastislavstefanik1918 "King Béla IV of Hungary invited German settlers after the small Hungarian settlement was destroyed in the Mongol Invasion. In the Battle of Rozgony in 1312 the burghers of Kassa helped King Charles I of Hungary to victory over the united army of the Aba family and Csák Máté, because previously the king protected the town from the tyranny of the oligarchs. The construction of the Gothic cathedral dedicated to St. Elisabeth of Hungary started in 1374. In 1412 the Pentapolitana, the alliance of the five most important free royal towns of northern Hungary, was created with the leadership of Kassa. During the reign of King Matthias of Hungary, Kassa was one of the largest European towns with its population of 10 thousand. During the 17th century Kassa was the center of the Hungarian uprisings against the Habsburg emperor and also the starting point of the campaigns of the Hungarian princes of Transylvania against Vienna within the Kingdom of Hungary. It was also the center of the Hungarian War of Independence between 1703 and 1711 led by Prince Rákóczi Ferenc II. The remains of the prince and his companions in exile, brought home from Rodosto (Turkey) in 1906, were placed in the crypt of the St. Elisabeth Cathedral. In 1918 the Czechoslovak army invaded the predominantly Hungarian town, tore down the memorial of the Hungarian War of Independence and fired at the peacefully protesting crowd. Afterwards Kassa was attached to the newly created Czechoslovakia. In 1945 the Czechoslovak president Benes announced his decrees on the persecution and the deprivation of properties of the Hungarian and German people from the balcony of the seat of the former Abaúj-Torna County, as a result of which there are hardly any Hungarians left in the town."
