Stefan Vladislav II of Syrmia

Stefan Vladislav II of Syrmia

: "For other monarchs with similar names, please see Ladislaus II (disambiguation)."Stefan Vladislav II (Стефан Владислав II, "Stephen Ladislaus II"; 1280-1325) was a Serb monarch, king of Syrmia (1316-1325) and claimant to the whole Serbia.

Life

He was son of king Stefan Dragutin of the House of Nemanjić and Hungarian princess Catherine.

During Hungarian civil war of 1292 he has received province of Slavonia from titular Hungarian king Charles Martel of Anjou which has not controlled Slavonia. After the death of the last Arpad king of Hungary, Andrew III, he was also a contestant for the Hungarian throne, through his mother. After king Dragutin died (in 1316), Stefan Vladislav II started to rule the Syrmian state of his father, known at the time as the "Kingdom of Syrmia", but the king of Serbia, Milutin, his uncle, beat him and imprisoned him.

When Milutin died in 1321, the newly freed Vladislav got to rule the lands of his father, with the help of Hungarians and Bosnian ban Šubić.

Tsar Michael Asen III of Bulgaria, newly in conflict with Vladislav's cousin Stefan Dečanski (successor of Milutin), started to support Vladislav as the rightful monarch of whole Serbia, but this support showed insufficient.

After having been beaten again by supporters of Stephen Dečanski, he retreated to Hungary in 1324. Vladislav II's sororal nephew Ban Stefan II of Bosnia then started to rule Vladislav's lands in Bosnia (Soli and Usora), and around Lower Syrmia there were long battles between Serbs and Hungarians.

Wife – Constanza Morosini (1st).
