The Hódítók Disunity, also known as the Kaposvár War was a war between the Empire and the breakaway state of the Balaton-Hévíz Kingdom, which declared its independence in 1733. The war lasted from 1733 to 1740, after the end of the Siege of Óbudavár and the execution of the king of the Balaton-Hévíz Kingdom, Polgárdy Hadik. The war was primarily fought within the Megyek of Kőszeg, Szeged, Hévíz, Kossuth, Ásotthalom, Kaposvár, and Hegyhát.

In the lead-up to the war, the issue of Balaton-Hévíz settlement had been raised within the Imperial Diet. The discussion was heavily dominated by the Hegyhát, with the only settlement supporting houses being from the Hévíz. Zgismond I, the Emperor at the time, was unable to properly respond to the issue of settlement, leaving the issue for the local Hegyhát and Kaposvár. The war started 24 days after the Massacre of Szobránc, where 200 Balaton and Hévíz settlers in Kaposvár were massacred by Hegyhát, Kaposvár and Székely natives in the village of Szobránc. The massacre was blamed on the Hegyhát noble house, the House of Hegedüs. Polgárdy Hadik, a farmer and survivor claiming descendence from the House of Barkóczy was elected as a leader of the town of Pálóc in Hegyhát in the immediate aftermath of the massacre. Overtime,
