14th-century Deaths
As a means of recording the passage of time, the 14th century was a century lasting from 1 January 1301 ( MCCCI), to 31 December 1400 ( MCD).

The Mongol Empire was founded by Genghis Khan, which stretched from Eastern Asia to Eastern Europe.

Other Muslim powers such as the Mali Empire and Delhi Sultanate conquered large parts of West Africa and the Indian subcontinent, while Buddhism witnessed a decline through the conquest led by Bakhtiyar Khilji. The Southern Song dynasty would begin the century as a prosperous kingdom but would eventually be invaded and annexed into the Yuan dynasty of the Mongols.

People Of The Kingdom Of Serbia (medieval)
A person ( : people) is a being that has certain capacities or attributes such as reason, morality, consciousness or self-consciousness, and being a part of a culturally established form of social relations such as kinship, ownership of property, or legal responsibility. The defining features of personhood and, consequently, what makes a person count as a person, differ widely among cultures and contexts. In addition to the question of personhood, of what makes a being count as a person to begin with, there are further questions about personal identity and self: both about what makes any particular person that particular person instead of another, and about what makes a person at one time the same person as they were or will be at another time despite any intervening changes. The plural form "people" is often used to refer to an entire nation or ethnic group (as in "a people"), and this was the original meaning of the word; it subsequently acquired its use as a plural form of pe ...

He is an ancestor of the Jonima family. Croatian historian Milan Šufflay (1879–1931) treated him as undoubtedly a descendant of ''sevast'' Jonima, mentioned in Angevin sources dating to 1274. Swiss historian Oliver Schmitt (born 1973) regards his Slavic name and position in a Slavic-dominated state, as an Albanian, a sign of close relations between the two ethnic groups in the region. In 1303 he appears present in the Serbian court. In 1306 he held the title of ''župan'' in the service of Serbian King Stefan Milutin; Jonima was among the witnesses mentioned in a charter issued to Rata ...
