Sažetak
The Mohács Island is located in the southern part of Hungary near the border with Croatia and Serbia. Due to its location, it was one of the most ethnically diverse areas in the country. In the past, many nationalities inhabited the island, making a significant impact on its geographical names; however, the names of the settlements were not determined by this factor. In the 16th and 17th centuries, the majority of the Hungarian population left the region; in their place, Bosnians, Sokacs, and Serbs arrived. At the beginning of the 18th century, Germanic people also settled in the area. The names of the settlements on Mohács Island have been documented since the Early Middle Ages, allowing them to be easily traced even in the 21st century. Regarding the street names of the settlements, they were not shaped by the ethnicities but rather by the ruling political system of the time.
