John Hunyadi: Encyclopedia II - John Hunyadi - Ascension

John Hunyadi has sometimes been confused with an elder brother John (Romanian: Ioan Corvin de Hunedoara), also Ban of Szörény (Severin).

While still a youth, the younger John Hunyadi entered the service of King Sigismund, who appreciated his qualities and borrowed money from him; he accompanied that monarch to Frankfurt in his quest for the imperial crown in 1410; took part in the Hussite Wars in 1420, and in 1437 drove the Turks from Semendria.

John Hunyadi: Encyclopedia II - Siege of Belgrade - Siege

However, before these forces could have been assembled, Mehmet II's invasion army (160,000 men in early accounts, 60-70,000 according to newer research) arrived at Nándorfehérvár. On July 4, 1456, the siege began. Szilágyi could only rely on a force of 5-7,000 men in the castle. Mehmet set up his siege on the neck of the headland and started firing on the walls on June 29, 1456. He arrayed his men in three sections. The Rumelian (that is, European) corps had the majority of his 300 cannons, and his fleet of 200 or so river vessels had th ...

John Hunyadi: Encyclopedia II - Skanderbeg - Fighting for the Freedom of Albania

In 1443, Skanderbeg saw his opportunity to rebel during the battle against the Hungarians led by John Hunyadi in Nis. He switched sides along with 300 other Albanians serving in the Ottoman army, leading an Albanian resistance. After a long run to Albania he eventually captured Kruje by forging a letter from the Sultan, giving him control of the territory. After capturing the castle, he raised the Albanian flag above the castle and reportedly pronounced: See also:

Main article: History of Hungary In the time of the Roman Empire, the Romans called the region Pannonia (west from the Danube river). After Rome fell under the Germanic tribes migration and Carpians' pressure, the Migration Period continued bringing many invaders. First came the Huns, who built up a powerful empire under Attila. The name "Hungary" may be influenced by the name of the Hun people, although it probably comes from the name of a later, 7th century turkic alliance called Onogur.

John Hunyadi: Encyclopedia II - Romania in the Middle Ages - Ottoman Age

In the 14th century, the Ottoman Turks expanded their empire from Anatolia to the Balkans. They crossed the Bosporus in 1352 and defeated the Serbs at Kosovo Polje, in the modern-day Kosovo, in 1389. Tradition holds that Wallachia's Prince Mircea cel Batran (1386-1418) sent his forces to Kosovo to fight beside the Serbs; soon after the battle Sultan Bayezid I marched on Wallachia and imprisoned Mircea until he pledged to pay tribute. After a failed attempt to break the sultan's grip, Mircea fled to Transylvania and enlisted his forces ...

John Hunyadi: Encyclopedia II - Vlad III Dracula - Anecdotal evidence

Much of the information we have about Vlad III comes from pamphlets published in Germany and chronicles written in Muscovy. The first known German pamphlet dates from 1488 and it is possible that some were printed during Dracula’s lifetime. At least initially, they may have been politically inspired. At that time Matthias Corvinus of Hungary was seeking to bolster his own reputation in the Holy Roman Empire and may have intended the early pamphlets as justification of his less than vigorous support of his vassal. The pamphlets were also a ...

John Hunyadi: Encyclopedia II - Hunedoara - History

Where the city of Hunedoara stands today, Stone Age tools were discovered in the hill near the castle called Sanpetru (Saint Peter) and in the surrounding villages. The region was very rich in iron, which had been extracted in the area since the Iron Age of Thracians and later, in the Thracian and Roman times. The remains of eight Dacian iron furnaces have been found at the Sanpetru hill near the castle. The proximity of the town to the network of fortresses and temples in the mountains of Orastie, and the discovery of important monetary treasures of Dacian coins and Roman imperial coins test ...
