'''Baranya''' ({{lang-hu|Baranya vármegye}}, {{IPA-hu|ˈbɒrɒɲɒ ˈvaːrmɛɟɛ|pron}}; [[German language|German]]:<span lang="de" dir="ltr"> ''Branau''; </span>[[Croatian language|Croatian]]:<span lang="hr" dir="ltr">'' Baranjska županija''</span>) is a [[Counties of Hungary|county]] ({{Lang|hu|vármegye}}) in southern [[Hungary]]. It is part of the [[Southern Transdanubia]] statistical region and the historical [[Baranya (region)|Baranya region]], which was a [[Counties of Hungary (before 1920)|county]] (''[[comitatus]]'') in the [[Kingdom of Hungary]] dating back to the 11th century. Its current status as one of the 19 counties of Hungary was established in 1950 as part of wider [[Hungarian People's Republic|Soviet]] administrative territorial reform following [[World War II]]. It is bordered by [[Somogy County]] to the northwest, [[Tolna County]] to the north, [[Bács-Kiskun County]] and the [[Danube]] to the east, and the border with [[Croatia]] (part of which is formed by the [[Drava|Drava River]]) to the south.
As of the [[2011 census of Hungary|2011 census]], it had a population of 386,441 residents. Of the 19 counties of Hungary (excluding [[Budapest]]), it is ranked 10th

Line 77:
==Geography==
This county has a total area of {{convert|4430|sqkm|sqmi|0|abbr=on}} – 4.76% of Hungary
The northern part of the county is a mountain area with large forests, the [[Mecsek]] Mountains. The central areas are shared between the [[Baranya Hills]] and [[Villány Mountains]]. The very eastern and southern parts are flat.
Line 102:
In 1526, the county was occupied by [[Ottoman Empire|Ottomans]] and was freed in 1689. Its medieval borders remained unchanged until 1919. According to the [[peace treaty of Trianon]], the southern part of the county ({{convert|1163|km2|abbr=on|disp=comma}}) reverted to Slavic rule (present-day Croatia). The re-organizing of the counties (1950) brought only minor changes (town of [[Szigetvár]] got there).
Baranya has the largest number of minorities in Hungary (more than twice the country average), providing home to 34% of the German minority, the so-called [[Danube Swabians]], and 32% of the Southern Slav minorities in Hungary.
The ''Stifolder'' or ''Stiffoller Shvove'' are a Roman Catholic subgroup of the so-called [[Danube Swabians]]. Their ancestors once came ca. 1717 - 1804 from the Hochstift Fulda and surroundings
Only a few people can speak the old Stiffolerisch Schvovish dialect. Also a salami is named after these people.<ref>{{cite web | url=https://dailynewshungary.com/the-best-salami-in-hungary/ | title=The best salami in Hungary | date=25 July 2018 }}</ref>
