Benedict, Palatine Of Hungary
Benedict ( hu, Benedek; died after 1204) was a Hungarian lord at the turn of the 12th and 13th centuries, who served as Ban of Slavonia from 1199 to 1200 and as Palatine of Hungary from 1202 to 1204. He was a staunch supporter of Emeric, King of Hungary. Identification It is possible that Benedict originated from the ''gens'' (clan) Osl. He had a namesake son, who functioned as vice-judge royal in 1221. Due to the lack of sources and the presence of multiple barons named Benedict in the period simultaneously, there are a number of difficulties in drawing and defining his career path. Based on chronology and political situation, Benedict was a faithful partisan of King Emeric, who had to face series of rebellions from his younger brother, Duke Andrew, throughout his whole reign.

12th-century Hungarian People
1 (one, unit, unity) is a number representing a single or the only entity. 1 is also a numerical digit and represents a single unit of counting or measurement. For example, a line segment of ''unit length'' is a line segment of length 1. In conventions of sign where zero is considered neither positive nor negative, 1 is the first and smallest positive integer. It is also sometimes considered the first of the infinite sequence of natural numbers, followed by 2, although by other definitions 1 is the second natural number, following 0. The fundamental mathematical property of 1 is to be a multiplicative identity, meaning that any number multiplied by 1 equals the same number. Most if not all properties of 1 can be deduced from this. In advanced mathematics, a multiplicative identity is often denoted 1, even if it is not a number. 1 is by convention not considered a prime number; this was not universally accepted until the mid-20th century. Additionally, 1 is ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
