Triggered by

Action A of 3644 - The Habsburg Inheritance of Hungary for Ottoman Empire

Description

Louis II (Lajos), 1506-26, king of Hungary and Bohemia (1516-26), son and successor of Vladislaus II. He was the last of the Jagiello dynasty in the two kingdoms. In the face of intensified attacks by Sultan Süleyman I, Louis hastily sought (1526) to unite Hungary and Christendom behind him, but only the pope sent help. With a pitiful army, Louis joined battle with the Ottomans at Mohács. The Hungarian army was destroyed, and Louis was killed. Only the ambitious John Zapolya had failed to arrive in time for the battle with the army he was bringing from Transylvania. Through the marriage treaty concluded by Louis' father the crowns of Hungary and Bohemia passed to Louis' brother-in-law, Ferdinand of Habsburg (later Holy Roman Emperor Ferdinand I), but Hungary fell under Ottoman rule.
