Ratimir of Pannonia

Ratimir of Pannonia

Ratimir was a Croatian prince, Bulgarian- imposed Prince of Southern Pannonia in 829 - 838.

In 827, the Bulgarians under duke Mortag invaded and conquered the Principality of Southern Pannonia (Savia) and parts of territories to the north of Savia, that were a part of Frankish kingdom. In 829 they imposed a local Prince Ratimir as the new ruler of Pannonia in their name. Nine years later (838) after the Bulgarian conquest of Macedonia, the Danubian Count Ratbod, Head of the East March, deposed Prince Ratimir and restored Frankish rule in Pannonia.

After the attack of Ratbod Ratimir fled, and in Pannonian Croatia, in the name of the Franks, ruled Slav dukes Pribina and Kocelj from todays western Hungary (Blatonski Koštel).
