Szabari Family
Szabari or Szabary was the name of a short-lived lesser noble family in Zala County, Kingdom of Hungary in the 14th century. History The Szabari family originated from the notable ''gens'' Hahót. According to the fourteenth-century chronicle composition, the founder of the kindred, knight Hahold descended from the Counts of Orlamünde, arriving to Hungary in 1163 upon the invitation of Stephen III to help to defeat the rebelled Csák kindred. Hahold's grandson Blessed Buzád, who retired from politics and joined the Dominican Order, donated his estates of Buzádsziget and Szabar (today Zalaszabar) to his eldest son Buzád III on 14 February 1233. After the invasions of Ottokar II of Bohemia and the powerful Kőszegi family, who established dominion independently of the royal power since the early 1270s, Buzád III's son Atyusz resided permanently in Szabar. For his participation in the military campaign against Ottokar, he received the lands of Kerecseny and Palkonya fr ...

Mary, Queen Of Hungary
Mary, also known as Maria of Anjou (, , ; 137117 May 1395), reigned as Queen of Hungary and Croatia (officially 'king') between 1382 and 1385, and from 1386 until her death. She was the daughter of Louis the Great, King of Hungary and Poland, and his wife, Elizabeth of Bosnia. Mary's marriage to Sigismund of Luxembourg, a member of the imperial Luxembourg dynasty, was already decided before her first birthday. A delegation of Polish prelates and lords confirmed her right to succeed her father in Poland in 1379. Having no male siblings, Mary was crowned "king" of Hungary on 17September 1382, seven days after Louis the Great's death. Her mother, who assumed regency, absolved the Polish noblemen from their oath of loyalty to Mary in favor of Mary's younger sister, Jadwiga, in early 1383. The idea of a female monarch remained unpopular among the Hungarian noblemen, the majority of whom regarded Mary's distant cousin, Charles III of Naples, as the lawful heir. To strengthen Mary's ...
