Ladislaus of Naples

1377–1414 · 15th century

Ladislaus of the Anjou-Durazzo house was King of Naples from 1386 until his death in 1414. He also claimed the crown of Hungary against Sigismund of Luxembourg and was crowned at Zadar in 1403, rewarding supporters such as Hrvoje Vukčić Hrvatinić. Abandoning the struggle, he sold his rights over Dalmatia to Venice in 1409 for 100,000 ducats.
