Ugrin Csák, Archbishop Of Split
Ugrin from the kindred Csák (, ; c. 1207 – 27 November 1248) was a Hungarian prelate in the 13th century, who served as Archbishop of Split from 1244 until his death. Family Ugrin was born into the Újlak branch of the powerful ''gens'' (clan) Csák, an ancient Hungarian kindred. His namesake uncle was Ugrin Csák, the influential Archbishop of Kalocsa from 1219 to 1241. His parentage is uncertain. Late 19th-century genealogist János Karácsonyi considered Ugrin was a grandson of Bás (II) through a hypothetical unidentified son, which, however, is unlikely, since, according to the family tree thus drawn, Ugrin's assumed cousin (John) and second cousins would have survived him for more than half a century. Historian Pál Engel argued Ugrin was the son of Pós (or Pous), who served as Ban of Severin and Master of the treasury in 1235. Engel incorrectly distinguished two noblemen named Pós, assuming a father-son relationship. Péter Galambosi proved the identification betwe ...

Stephen II, Bishop Of Zagreb
Stephen II (, ; 1190/95 – 10 July 1247) was a Croats, Croatian–Hungarians, Hungarian prelate of the Catholic Church who served as Roman Catholic Archdiocese of Zagreb, Bishop of Zagreb from 1225 until his death in 1247. Theories of origin Stephen II was born between 1190 and 1195. Croatian historian Ivan Kukuljević Sakcinski thought that Stephen originated from the Babonić noble family, which argument was also accepted by a majority of scholars in Croatia, including Neven Budak and Lejla Dobronić. In contrast, Baltazar Adam Krčelić regarded him as a relative of Coloman of Galicia, Prince Coloman and kings Andrew II of Hungary, Andrew II and Béla IV of Hungary, Béla IV. Both Krčelić and Pavao Ritter Vitezović considered Stephen belonged to the Hungarian clan Hahót (genus), Hahót (or Buzád). Hungarian historian Judit Gál shared this argument, while Gábor Barabási mentioned Stephen's "possible Hungarian origin". In his last will and testament from 1227, Hunga ...

Entering his rule, Matej Ninoslav forcibly replaced his predecessor, Stjepan Kulinić with the help of the adherents of the Bosnian Church, which caused good relations with Serbia to sour. During his rule, Ninoslav served as a faithful Hungarian vassal, but was greatly underestimated during his reign. The Prenestine Bish ...

Medieval Commune
Medieval communes in the European Middle Ages had sworn allegiances of mutual defense (both physical defense and of traditional freedoms) among the citizens of a town or city. These took many forms and varied widely in organization and makeup. Communes are first recorded in the late 11th and early 12th centuries, thereafter becoming a widespread phenomenon. They had greater development in central-northern Italy, where they became city-states based on partial democracy. At the same time in Germany they became free cities, independent from local nobility. Etymology The English and French word "commune" () appears in Latin records in various forms. They come from Medieval Latin , plural form of (that which is common, community, state), substantive noun from (common). Ultimately, the Proto-Indo-European root is ''*mey-'' (to change, exchange). When autonomy was won through violent uprising and overthrow, the commune was often called (a conspiracy) (). Origins During the 10 ...

First Mongol Invasion Of Hungary
The first invasion of the Kingdom of Hungary by the Mongol Empire started in March 1241. The Mongols started to withdraw in late March 1242. Background Mongol invasion of Europe The Hungarians had first learned about the Mongol threat in 1229, when King Andrew II granted asylum to some fleeing Rus' boyars. Some Magyars (Hungarians), left behind during the main migration to the Pannonian basin, still lived on the banks of the upper Volga (it is believed by some that the descendants of this group are the modern-day Bashkirs, although these people now speak a Turkic language, not Magyar). In 1237 a Dominican friar, Julianus, set off on an expedition to lead them back, and was sent back to King Béla with a letter from Batu Khan. In this letter, Batu called upon the Hungarian king to surrender his kingdom unconditionally to the " Tatar" forces or face complete destruction. Béla did not reply, and two more messages were later delivered to Hungary. The first, in 1239, was s ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
