Notes
The eldest son of Casimir IV Jagiełło, king of Poland, Vladislas was el e c t ed king of Bohemia in 1471. The early part of his reign was spent in c o n f lict with the Hungarian king Matthias Corvinus, who in 1478 (Treaty o f O l o mouc) won title to the previously Bohemian crownlands of Moravia, S i l e sia, and Lusatia. After Matthias died, however, Vladislas was electe d k i n g of Hungary as Ulászló II in 1490. During his compliant and vacil la t i ng reign, in both Bohemia and Hungary, the nobility widely extended t h e i r powers and strengthened their hold over an already oppressed peasa n t r y. Vladislas was also faced with the rivalry of the Holy Roman emper o r M a ximilian I for the Hungarian crown and was obliged to concede the H a b s burg succession to his territories should his own line be extinguish e d ( P eace of Pressburg, 1491; Treaty of Vienna, 1515); that agreement g r e a tly contributed to the eventual formation of a Habsburg Danubian emp i r e .
