Gost Radin
Radin ( sr-cyr, Радин), known under his full name, Radin Butković, was a Bosnian nobleman and magnate, who also served as ''gost'', a high ranking prelate of the Bosnian Church during the 15th century in medieval Bosnia. As his vernacular name suggests, Radin was a local cleric elected by the Bosnians themselves. He was probably born around 1400 in Seonica, village in medieval župa and the settlement Neretva, today the town of Konjic in Bosnia and Herzegovina. As a high-ranking clergyman of the Bosnian Church, he was also politically savvy, so he distinguished himself as a diplomat and ambassador. Medieval sources mentioned him for the first time in a document dated from 1422 in a rank of a '' krstjanin'' (lowest rank in the Bosnian Church clergy) when he engaged in negotiations with the people of Ragusa representing the duke Radosav Pavlović. He was also mentioned as a ''starac'' (mid-ranked prelate, loosely ) in 1437, and as a ''gost'' (high-ranking prelate, ) in 14 ...

15th-century Bosnian People
The 15th century was the century which spans the Julian dates from 1 January 1401 ( MCDI) to 31 December 1500 ( MD). In Europe, the 15th century includes parts of the Late Middle Ages, the Early Renaissance, and the early modern period. Many technological, social and cultural developments of the 15th century can in retrospect be seen as heralding the "European miracle" of the following centuries. The architectural perspective, and the modern fields which are known today as banking and accounting were founded in Italy. The Hundred Years' War ended with a decisive French victory over the English in the Battle of Castillon. Financial troubles in England following the conflict resulted in the Wars of the Roses, a series of dynastic wars for the throne of England. The conflicts ended with the defeat of Richard III by Henry VII at the Battle of Bosworth Field, establishing the Tudor dynasty in the later part of the century. Constantinople, known as the capital of the world an ...

Vlatko Tumurlić
Vlatko Tumurlić ( sr-Cyrl, Влатко Тумурлић) was a ''krstjanin'', a member of the Bosnian Church, a diplomat in the service of the Pavlović family. Life and career Vlatko Tumurlić, a ''krstjanin'', is better known as a diplomat, deputy in the service of the Pavlović family, than for his place and role in the hierarchy of the Bosnian Church. Together with other deputies, he represented Knyaz Pavle Radinović in negotiations with the people of Ragusa (today Dubrovnik) during the Bosnian–Ragusan war of 1403–1404, and he also represented Duke Radoslav Pavlović in resolving the fate of the town of Sokol in Konavle in 1423. These affairs show that members of the Bosnian Church were appropriate and sufficient guarantors for the people of Dubrovnik in the most important issues they had with the Bosnian nobles Pavlovićs. Hence, it is assumed that during the 15th century the Bosnian Church was respected as a stable framework for solving important state issues fo ...

Grand Duke Of Bosnia
Grand Duke of Bosnia ( sh, veliki vojvoda rusaga bosanskog, la, Bosne supremus voivoda / Sicut supremus voivoda regni Bosniae), was a court title in the Kingdom of Bosnia, bestowed by the monarch to highest military commanders, usually reserved for most influential and most capable among highest Bosnian nobility. To interpret it as an office post rather than a court rank could be more accurate, although it was not hereditary it served both purposes and was retained for life by a noblemen who gained it. History Unlike usage in Western Europe or Central Europe, as well as in various Slavic lands from Central to North-East Europe, where analogy between grand duke and grand prince was significant, with both titles corresponding to sovereign lower than king but higher than duke, in Bosnia the title of grand duke corresponded more to the Byzantine military title '' megas doux''. Generally, Slavic word ''knez'' is often referred to ruler, sometimes analogous to king, thus ''veliki kn ...

Krstjani
The Bosnian Church ( sh-Latn-Cyrl, separator=/, Crkva bosanska, Црква Босанска) was a Christian church in medieval Bosnia and Herzegovina that was independent of and considered heretical by both the Catholic and the Eastern Orthodox hierarchies. Historians traditionally connected the church with the Bogomils, although this has been challenged and is now rejected by the majority of scholars. Adherents of the church called themselves simply ''Krstjani'' ("Christians") or ''Dobri Bošnjani, Usorani, Humljani...'' ("Good Bosnians, Usorans, Humlians..."). The church's organization and beliefs are poorly understood, because few if any records were left by church members and the church is mostly known from the writings of outside sources - primarily Catholic ones. The monumental tombstones called ''stećak'' that appeared in medieval Bosnia, as well as Croatia, Serbia, and Montenegro, are sometimes identified with the Bosnian Church.
