History[edit]
The Csík region was a combination of three settlements (seats) of the Székely: Csíkszék, Gyergyószék and Kászonszék. Csík county was formed in 1876, when the administrative structure of Transylvania was changed. In 1920 the Treaty of Trianon assigned the territory of Csík county to the Kingdom of Romania. It returned to Hungary with the Second Vienna Award of 1940, but was given again to Romania at the end of World War II. Its territory lies in the present-day Romanian counties Harghita and Neamţ (a small part in the north-east).
