Szolnok-Doboka county shared borders with the Hungarian counties SzilĂĄgy, SzatmĂĄr, MĂĄramaros, Beszterce-NaszĂłd and Kolozs. The river SomeƟ flowed through the county. Its area was 4,786 square kilometres (1,848 sq mi) around 1910.

History※

Szolnok-Doboka county was formed in 1876, when BelsƑ-Szolnok county (its center was DĂ©s/Dej), most of Doboka county (its center was Doboka/DăbĂąca at first, later SzamosĂșjvĂĄr/Gherla) and the eastern part of the KƑvĂĄrvidĂ©k/Chioar district were united.

In 1920, by the Treaty of Trianon, the county became part of Romania, except from 1940 until the end of World War II, when it was returned to Hungary by the Second Vienna Award, with a slightly modified territory. The territory of the county is now divided between the Romanian counties of Cluj (the center and "south," a.o. Dej), Maramureș (the north), Bistrița-Năsăud (the east) and Sălaj (the west).
