John from the kindred Smaragd ( hu, Smaragd nembeli János; died after 1310) was a Hungarian nobleman at the turn of the 13th and 14th centuries, who served as ''ispán'' of Bács County in 1291. He led an unsuccessful Serbian invasion against Upper Syrmia in 1309–1310. Family John was born into the ''gens'' (clan) Smaragd, an illustrious noble family of French origin. His father was Aynard, a prominent landowner in Valkó County. John had two brothers, Nicholas and Smaragd. They were ancestors of the Ajnárdfi branch of the Smaragd kindred, while John had no known descendants.Engel: ''Genealógia'' (Genus Smaragdus 1., Ajnárdfi ükei, Atyai, Görögmezeibranch) Career It is plausible that Aynard died not long before 1275. In that year, according to a non-authentic charter, John and his brothers divided the lands of Aynard in Valkó County between the rivers Danube and Sava, including the lordships of Racsa, Atya, Küke and Görögmező, later all estates belonged to Sy ...

Tithe
A tithe (; from Old English: ''teogoþa'' "tenth") is a one-tenth part of something, paid as a contribution to a religious organization or compulsory tax to government. Today, tithes are normally voluntary and paid in cash or cheques or more recently via online giving, whereas historically tithes were required and paid in kind, such as agricultural produce. After the separation of church and state, church tax linked to the tax system are instead used in many countries to support their national church. Donations to the church beyond what is owed in the tithe, or by those attending a congregation who are not members or adherents, are known as offerings, and often are designated for specific purposes such as a building program, debt retirement, or mission work. Many Christian denominations hold Jesus taught that tithing must be done in conjunction with a deep concern for "justice, mercy and faithfulness" (cf. Matthew 23:23). Tithing was taught at early Christian church coun ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

Stefan Dragutin
Stefan Dragutin ( sr-cyr, Стефан Драгутин, hu, Dragutin István; 1244 – 12 March 1316) was King of Serbia from 1276 to 1282. From 1282, he ruled a separate kingdom which included northern Serbia, and (from 1284) the neighboring Hungarian banates (or border provinces), for which he was unofficially styled "King of Syrmia". He was the eldest son of King Stefan Uroš I of Serbia and Queen Helen. Dragutin married Catherine of Hungary, likely after his father concluded a peace treaty with her grandfather, Béla IV of Hungary, in 1268. By 1271, he received the title of "young king" in recognition of his right to succeed his father. He rebelled against his father, and with Hungarian assistance, forced him to abdicate in 1276. Dragutin abandoned Uroš I's centralizing policy and ceded large territories to his mother in appanage. After a riding accident, he abdicated in favor of his brother Milutin in 1282, but retained the northern regions of ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
De Facto
''De facto'' ( ; , "in fact") describes practices that exist in reality, whether or not they are officially recognized by laws or other formal norms. It is commonly used to refer to what happens in practice, in contrast with ''de jure'' ("by law"), which refers to things that happen according to official law, regardless of whether the practice exists in reality. History In jurisprudence, it mainly means "practiced, but not necessarily defined by law" or "practiced or is valid, but not officially established". Basically, this expression is opposed to the concept of "de jure" (which means "as defined by law") when it comes to law, management or technology (such as standards) in the case of creation, development or application of "without" or "against" instructions, but in accordance with "with practice". When legal situations are discussed, "de jure" means "expressed by law", while "de facto" means action or what is practiced. Similar expressions: "essentially", "unofficial", "in ...

Mark (unit)
The Mark (from Middle High German: Marc, march, brand) is originally a medieval weight or mass unit, which supplanted the pound weight as a precious metals and coinage weight from the 11th century. The Mark is traditionally divided into 8 ounces or 16 lots. The Cologne mark corresponded to about 234 grams. Like the German systems, the French poids de marc weight system considered one "Marc" equal to 8 troy ounces. Just as the pound of 12 troy ounces (373 g) lent its name to the pound unit of currency, the mark lent its name to the mark unit of currency. Origin of the term The Etymological Dictionary of the German Language by Friedrich Kluge derives the word from the Proto-Germanic term ''marka'', "weight and value unit" (originally "division, shared"). The etymological dictionary by Wolfgang Pfeifer sees the Old High German ''marc'', "delimitation, sign", as the stem and assumes that ''marc'' originally meant "minting" (marking of a certain weight), later denoting the in ...

Báncsa (genus)
Báncsa or Bancsa ( la, Bancha), also incorrectly ''Vancsa'' or ''Vancza'', was the name of a ''gens'' (Latin for "clan"; ''nemzetség'' in Hungarian) in the Kingdom of Hungary. Origin As one of the clans from Délvidék, the southern territories of the kingdom, the Báncsa was an original settler kindred from Bács County (today Bač, Serbia), which later was granted landholdings and villages in Northern Hungary, including Esztergom County, Esztergom and Komárom County, Komárom Counties. Based on the given name Orbász (also Orbas or Vrbas), which was common within the family, it is possible that the clan was of Slavic (Serbian or Croatian) origin. Notable members Orbász I (fl. 1213–16) :Being the earliest known member of the kindred, Orbász was first mentioned as ''comes'' in 1213, according to historian János Karácsonyi.
