Career His unidentified father, the ancestor of the kindred received the estate of Monoszló (today Podravska Moslavina, Croatia) in Križevci County in Slavonia from Béla III of Hungary. There he also granted the right of ''marturina'', a type of tax in Croatia which was collected in the then highly valued marten skins. Macarius was one of his four sons and the only one who is known by name. Macarius owned Szond, Bács County (today Sonta, Serbia) by 1196 and married a daughter of Peter Győr from the Szenterzsébet branch.

From 1225, the title started being held by a separate dignitary from the title of the Ban of Croatia and Dalmatia, and existed until 1476, when it was joined with the latter title.

Emeric, King Of Hungary
Emeric, also known as Henry or Imre ( hu, Imre, hr, Emerik, sk, Imrich; 117430 November 1204), was King of Hungary and Croatia between 1196 and 1204. In 1184, his father, Béla III of Hungary, ordered that he be crowned king, and appointed him as ruler of Croatia and Dalmatia around 1195. Emeric ascended the throne after the death of his father. During the first four years of his reign, he fought his rebellious brother, Andrew, who forced Emeric to make him ruler of Croatia and Dalmatia as appanage. Emeric cooperated with the Holy See against the Bosnian Church, which the Catholic Church considered to be heretics. Taking advantage of a civil war, Emeric expanded his suzerainty over Serbia. He failed to prevent the Republic of Venice, which was assisted by crusaders of the Fourth Crusade, from seizing Zadar in 1202. He also could not impede the rise of Bulgaria along the southern frontiers of his kingdom. Emeric was the first Hungarian monarch to use the "Árpád stripes" as his ...

Brothers' Quarrel (Hungary)
The Brothers' Quarrel ( hu, testvérviszály) was a dynastic feud between Emeric, King of Hungary and his younger brother, Andrew, Duke of Slavonia, lasted from 1197 to 1203, which covered almost the entire reign of the former. The conflict had a significant impact on the development of 13th century society and political system in the Kingdom of Hungary. Background The illustrious Béla III ruled Hungary from 1172 to 1196. His first wife was Agnes of Antioch, the mother of Béla's all children. Their first child and son Emeric was born in 1174, according to genealogist Mór Wertner, which was accepted by the Hungarian historiography unanimously. Historian György Szabados argued it is possible that Agnes gave birth to her eldest son already in late 1170, still in the Byzantine Empire, where Béla (also known as Alexios in the Byzantine court) had already been there for seven years at the time of the marriage in the spring of the same year. Andrew was the second son of Béla III a ...

Andrew II Of Hungary
Andrew II ( hu, II. András, hr, Andrija II., sk, Ondrej II., uk, Андрій II; 117721 September 1235), also known as Andrew of Jerusalem, was King of Hungary and Croatia between 1205 and 1235. He ruled the Principality of Halych from 1188 until 1189/1190, and again between 1208/1209 and 1210. He was the younger son of Béla III of Hungary, who entrusted him with the administration of the newly conquered Principality of Halych in 1188. Andrew's rule was unpopular, and the boyars (or noblemen) expelled him. Béla III willed property and money to Andrew, obliging him to lead a crusade to the Holy Land. Instead, Andrew forced his elder brother, King Emeric of Hungary, to cede Croatia and Dalmatia as an appanage to him in 1197. The following year, Andrew occupied Hum. Despite the fact that Andrew did not stop conspiring against Emeric, the dying king made Andrew guardian of his son, Ladislaus III, in 1204. After the premature death of Ladislaus, Andrew ascended the throne ...

Győr (genus)
Győr (''Geur'' or ''Jeur'') was the name of a ''gens'' (Latin for "clan"; ''nemzetség'' in Hungarian) in the Kingdom of Hungary. The ancestor of the kindred was a German knight, who arrived to Hungary in the first half of the 11th century. His descendants settled down in Transdanubia. The last scion of the family died in the 17th century. Theories of origin Medieval chronicles unanimously considered the Győr (also Geur or Jeur) kindred originated from Germany, who came to the Kingdom of Hungary in the first half of the 11th century. The fourteenth-century chronicle composition (''Illuminated Chronicle'') does not refer to the clan, when describes the circumstances of the foundation of the Zselicszentjakab Abbey by family member Otto in 1061. Majority of the historians – for instance, György Györffy, Gyula Kristó and Erik Fügedi accepted the theory of German origin. Györffy wrote the clan arrived to the kingdom at the beginning of the reign of Stephen I, the first kin ...
