The 13th century was a period of fully social and political changing in the Kingdom of Hungary. After the Tatars' invasion new institutions were made into relief through the reconstruction process, some of them being similar to the statuses meetings in Occidental Europe. Part of historiography asserted that the initiative of congregations and provincial meetings belonged to the time kings, but there are sources to attest that during the critical moments the authority of the Crown was practically inexistent, the Roman-Catholic Church, through the agency of the Magyar bishops made efforts to keep away the country unity. That mission did not end with Carol Robert's coronation, but went away the next century. As for the social level, the same period was a decisive one for the nobility coming into being; having removing the other inhabitants from the political life, it became the main ally of the crown in the process of ruling the country. When setting as a homogeneous and representative body for the whole kingdom, nobility has its own hierarchy, with the barons at the top. Together with the great nobles they took permanently part in the country ruling whiles the rest of the nobles did it only in general meetings. Even if initially all the country inhabitants, no matter their social status, might take part in the congregations meetings, in the length of time that nobility obtained the exclusive right to organize those institutions. The same process was a decisive one in appearance of some social groups with their own interest and features, known as statutes. In spite of the well-known opinions concerning their diversity and composition, the historical sources grant the fact that the states' members were recruited from nobility. Given the lack of their representativity and their non uniform distribution along the Hungarian Kingdom, neither the ethnic nor the professional communities, as the towns and boroughs could be related to a certain status. Concomitantly with that, the largest majority of towns and boroughs were in fact set as parts of nobiliary estates and it means that their inhabitants were quite similar to the serfs' status.
