==Życiorys==

==Ancestry==
Nicholas was born into the Hahold branch of the [[Hahót (genus)|''gens'' Hahót]] in the 1290s, as the only son of [[Stephen Hahót|Stephen I]], who was mentioned as ''[[ispán]]'' of [[Varaždin County (former)|Varaždin County]] in 1297,{{odn|Zsoldos|2011|str=222}} and an unidentified daughter of [[Palatine of Hungary|Palatine]] [[Denis Péc]]. Stephen Hahót was a loyal supporter of [[Andrew III of Hungary]], participating in several military campaigns against [[Duchy of Austria|Austria]] and the rival [[Kőszegi family]] in [[Transdanubia]] and [[Slavonia]].

[[File:Hahót nemzetségős.jpg|thumb|250px|left|[[Hahold I Hahót|Hahold I]], ancestor of the Hahóts]]

According to the ''[[Chronicon Pictum|Illuminated Chronicle]]'' which was written in the 1350s, when Nicholas' political career reached its peak, the ancestor of the Hahót kindred was a certain German knight [[Hahold I Hahót|Hahold I]] (Nicholas' great-great-great grandfather) who was a descendant of the [[Orlamünde|Counts of Weimar-Orlamünde]] and settled down in the [[Kingdom of Hungary]] in 1163 upon the invitation of [[Stephen III of Hungary]] to fight against usurper uncle [[Stephen IV of Hungary]] and his allies, the [[Csák (genus)|Csáks]].{{odn|Tóth|2003|str=267}}

Majority of the historians rejected this interpretation. Elemér Mályusz identified the two geographical names with [[Wartburg]] and [[Meissen]] in [[Thuringia]] ([[Margravate of Meissen]]), noting that none of them were part of the estates of the House of Weimar-Orlamünde, which ruled Meissen from 1046 to 1067.{{odn|Tóth|2003|str=268}} Endre Tóth tried to reconstruct the origin of the kindred based on the spread of the name Hahold in German-speaking areas. Near [[Freising]], the name was relatively frequently used since the 8th century, in addition, it appeared altogether with the name Arnold in the 13th century, which was also used for four generations in the Hahót kindred.{{odn|Tóth|2003|str=280}} Hahold's theory of origin had a long tradition, as the ''Illuminated Chronicle'' only preserved the narrative of the so-called ''gesta'' of the age of King [[Stephen V of Hungary]] (r. 1270–72), compiled by ''magister'' [[Ákos (chronicler)|Ákos]].{{odn|Tóth|2003|str=268}}

Nicholas' grandfather [[Hahold IV Hahót|Hahold IV]] (fl. 1251–75) already styled himself "lord of [[Lendava|Alsólendva]]" (today Lendava, [[Slovenia]]) in 1272, proving that he owned and possibly built the castle himself by then. As ''ispán'' of Varaždin County, Stephen represented the royal power in that territory against overwhelming Kőszegi forces in the last years of Andrew III. Following the extinction of the [[Árpád dynasty]] in 1301, royal power collapsed and a dozen lords, or "[[Oligarch (Kingdom of Hungary)|oligarchs]]", who had by that time achieved ''[[de facto]]'' independence of the monarch to strengthen their autonomy. One of these oligarchs of the last generation, [[John Kőszegi]] besieged and occupied Alsólendva around 1314 (formerly historians János Karácsonyi and Erik Fügedi incorrectly identified [[Ivan Kőszegi]] as belligerent and set 1292 for the date of the siege).{{odn|Engel|1996|str=266}} Whether Stephen was still alive during this act, it is unknown as he disappeared from the sources after 1297, but his son Nicholas was first mentioned by contemporary records only in 1317.{{odn|Markó|2006|str=451}}



Potomek starodawnego '''klanu''' [[Hahót]] z komitatu [[Zala]]. Jego ojcem był [[Bánffy I. István|Stefan I]], wspomniany jako [[ispán]] [[Varasd]] między 1272 a 1296 rokiem. Imię jego matki jest nieznane. Jego dziadkiem ze strony ojca był [[Hahót III. Hahót|Hahót III Hahót]].

Dzięki bardzo wpływowej pozycji ojca i bogactwu jego rodu, ale przede wszystkim przynależności politycznej, Miklós '''w niejasności był w stanie wychować rodzinę'''. Dzięki lojalności w stosunku do króla Węgier [[I. Károly|Karola I]] Miklós zapoczątkował świetną karierę dla rodziny. [1] W jednej z pierwszych wzmianek jest mowa o tym, że był [[ispán]]em komitatu [[Zala]] (1324-1346). Ponownie datowano go między 1349 a 1351 r. [2] W latach 1333–1343 był [[lovászmester]], '''[[Ban całej Slawonii|banem Slawonii]]''' najpierw w latach 1343–1346, a następnie ponownie w latach 1353–1356. W tym czasie, między 1345 a 1346 r., a następnie między 1353 a 1356 r. był [[Ban Dalmacji i Chorwacji|banem Dalmacji i Chorwacji]]. W 1343 r. otrzymał zamek [[Lendvai]], dzięki czemu jego następcy są jedną z najwybitniejszych rodzin arystokratycznych w kraju, z dwoma przyległymi majątkami; '''zamek ten pierwotnie przejął [[Kőszegi Miklós|Mikołaj Kőszegi]] od ojca, [[Hahót I. István|Stefana I Hahóta]]'''. W latach 1357–1359 miał dwie godności: [[tárnokmester]] królowej i [[ispán]]a '''[[Segesd]]''' [3].

  <small><small>Apja rangosabb pozíciójának, valamint a nemesi családja vagyonának, de főképpen politikai hovátartozásának köszönhetően, Lendvai Miklós felemelkedett az ismeretlenségből, és családját igen emelhette fel.

==Early career==
As he participated in the unification war of [[Charles I of Hungary]] against the oligarchs according to a royal charter, historian Éva B. Halász considered Nicholas was born in the first half of the 1290s.{{odn|B. Halász|2010|str=7}} From 1319 to 1323, he was frequently mentioned as royal squire and royal youth ({{lang-la|aule iuvenis}}) in the court of Charles, and was called "''vir nobilis magister Nicolaus''", proving his lackland social status after the Kőszegis' military campaign. A "brave soldier", Nicholas was a loyal supporter of the young king as he could hope the recovery of lost family landholdings and castles only from a successful restoration of the strong royal power by Charles. According to the afore-mentioned royal charter from 1319, Nicholas fought in the war against [[Stefan Milutin]], [[King of Serbia]] across the river [[Sava]], when Charles I retook control over [[Belgrade]] and seized the fortress of [[Mačva|Macsó]] (today Mačva, Serbia) to restore the [[Banate of Macsó]].{{odn|Markó|2006|str=451}} For his merits, Nicholas regained Alsólendva Castle and its surrounding villages from [[Charles I of Hungary]] in 1323, who, as one of his charters concluded, Charles had taken "full possession" of his kingdom by that year and consolidated the royal supremacy over the whole country.{{odn|Engel|1996|str=266}} In the same year, Nicholas was referred to ''ispán'' (i.e. judge) of the Queen's subjects. As a magistrate, he supervised the recovery and legal arrangement of the queenly estates which were arbitrarily usurped by the provincial lords in the previous decades.{{odn|Zsoldos|2005|str=77}}

[[File:Lendva.jpg|thumb|300px|right|Alsólendva Castle, seat of Nicholas Hahót]]

In 1324, Nicholas was made ''ispán'' of [[Zala County (former)|Zala County]]. After the collapse of the Kőszegi dominion and restoration of the administrative function, his main task as ''ispán'' was to represent the royal authority and to ensure stability and military consolidation at the Western border. He held the dignity for almost twenty years until 1343.{{odn|Engel|1996|str=234}} Internal peace and increasing royal revenues strengthened the international position of Hungary in the 1320s. On 13 February 1327, Charles and [[John of Bohemia]] signed an alliance against the [[Habsburgs]], who had occupied [[Bratislava|Pressburg]] (today [[Bratislava]], [[Slovakia]]). When [[Otto, Duke of Austria|Otto the Merry]] sought assistance and protection from Charles against his own brothers, [[Frederick the Fair]] and [[Albert II, Duke of Austria|Albert the Lame]], Hungarian and Bohemian troops jointly invaded Austria in the summer of 1228. The Hungarian royal army was led by [[Stephen I Lackfi|Stephen Lackfi]]. Meanwhile, Nicholas Hahót commanded a smaller auxiliary unit into [[Duchy of Styria|Styria]] to defeat Ulrich I of Walsee, who had earlier annexed the [[Muraköz]] (now Međimurje in Croatia). There Nicholas besieged and seized two castles, Haburne and [[Pertlstein]], but the whole region only returned under Hungarian suzerainty in 1337.{{odn|Kristó|1988|str=74}}

Nicholas was among those appointed noble judges in May 1330, who has ruled over the kindred [[Záh (gens)|Záh]], which one of notable members, [[Felician Záh]] had attempted to assassinate the royal family on 17 April 1330 in [[Visegrád]]. Following the trial, several members of the clan were imprisoned, executed or exiled.{{odn|B. Halász|2010|str=8}} From 1333 to 1343, Nicholas served as [[Master of the horse (Kingdom of Hungary)|Master of the horse]] in the queenly court of [[Elizabeth of Poland, Queen of Hungary|Elizabeth of Poland]], the fourth and last wife of Charles.{{odn|Engel|1996|str=57}} In the upcoming decade, he was appointed as an ad litem judge in various lawsuits on several occasions, residing permanently in Visegrád, then [[List of historical capitals of Hungary|capital]] of the [[Kingdom of Hungary]].{{odn|B. Halász|2010|str=8}}

==Ban of Slavonia and Croatia==
===First term===
Charles I died on 16 July 1342. His sixteen-year-old [[Louis I of Hungary|Louis I]] succeeded him, inheriting a centralized kingdom and a rich treasury from Charles. On 18 May 1343, Louis appointed Nicholas Hahót as Ban of Slavonia (his proper title was "Ban of the Whole of Slavonia"), replacing [[Mikcs Ákos]] who died in office. According to a royal charter, Nicholas started his journey from Visegrád to Slavonia on the next day.{{odn|Engel|1996|str=16}} During the appointment, Nicholas was also granted ''castrum'' [[Lenti]], a former estate of the disgraced Kőszegis.{{odn|Engel|1996|str=357}} In the previous decades, Charles unsuccessfully attempted to reinstate royal authority in Croatia and Slavonia. Although the dominion of [[Mladen II Šubić of Bribir|Mladen II Šubić]] collapsed in 1322, his strongest rival [[Ivan Nelipić|John Nelipić]] expanded his dominance over South Croatia.{{odn|Fine|1994|str=213}} Charles ordered Ban [[Nicholas Felsőlendvai]] and [[Stephen II, Ban of Bosnia|Stephen II Kotromanić]] to launch a joint offensive against Nelipić, but their expedition eventually failed. Years later Felsőlendvai's successor Mikcs Ákos invaded Croatia to subjugate the local lords who had seized the former castles of Mladen Subić without the king's approval, but John Nelipić routed the ban's troops in 1326. Consequently, royal power remained only nominal in Croatia during Charles's reign, while Slavonia was integrated into the royal crown.{{odn|Fine|1994|str=213}}

John Nelipić ruled almost whole Croatia beyond [[Petrova Gora|Mount Gvozd]] ''[[de facto]]'' independently from [[Knin]] until his death in 1344.{{odn|Kristó|1988|str=99}} Following that Louis ordered Nicholas Hahót to launch a campaign to Croatia in the autumn of 1344 (Nicholas did not issue any diploma from August to November because of his military mandate). His army unhindered marched until the fortress Knin which was defended by Nelipić's widow Vladislava in the name of their minor son and heir [[Ivan II Nelipić|John II]]. Nicholas did not attempt to besiege the castle, instead plundered surrounding lands and villages. Fearing from possibility of a prolonged siege, Vladislava asked for peace and swore allegiance to Louis.{{odn|Kristó|1988|str=99}} The [[Republic of Venice]] which took advantage of the Croatian feudal anarchy for decades, and gained control over [[Split, Croatia|Split]] and [[Nin, Croatia|Nin]], acquiring most of the coast from [[Zrmanja River]] to the mouth of the [[Cetina]] since the 1320s, tried to prevent the Hungarian expansion with diplomatic means.{{odn|Kristó|1988|str=99}} The Venetians persuaded the widow not to hand over Knin to Nicholas' army, while aimed to establish an anti-Hungarian coalition among the Croatian lords and the Dalmatian coastal cities.{{odn|Kristó|1988|str=99}} As a result, Louis personally marched across [[Bihać]] to Croatia in July 1345 and forced Vladislava and her son to surrender without any military action took place. [[Grgur Kurjaković|Gregory Kurjaković]], Count of Corbavia and other Croatian noblemen also yielded to him during his stay in [[Zagreb]]. In the name of his king, Nicholas Hahót negotiated with Vladislava on the terms of surrender, when she agreed to hand over four castles.{{odn|Kristó|1988|str=100}} Thus Louis restored royal power in Croatia and pacified the country by the end of 1345.{{odn|Markó|2006|str=451}}{{odn|Kristó|1988|str=101}}

[[File:Konrad von Grünenberg - Beschreibung der Reise von Konstanz nach Jerusalem - Blatt 10r - 025.jpg|thumb|left|Image of [[Zadar]] (Zara) in the [[Late Middle Ages]] by [[Conrad Grünenberg]]]]

Since August 1345, Nicholas Hahót styled himself Ban of Slavonia, Croatia and Dalmatia, merging the two positions and extending his influence to the Croatian territories as well to represent the royal authority.{{odn|B. Halász|2010|str=10}} This meant the restoration of the dignity of Ban of Croatia, which title was arbitrarily held for decades by the [[Šubić noble family|Šubići]]. Before Nicholas, the last person who served as Ban of Croatia, was [[John Babonić]] for a short time in 1322.{{odn|Engel|1996|str=22}} The last one who was appointed by a Hungarian monarch and had actual function, was [[Nicholas II Gutkeled|Nicholas Gutkeled]] in 1275.{{odn|Zsoldos|2011|str=48}} Nicholas Hahót is the only known 14th-century ban, who concluded a chamber rental contract. He issued such a document on 11 November 1344 in Zagreb, when he leased the Slavonian chamber for 300 ''[[banovac]]'' to five burghers: James, son of Vlfardus from Zagreb, in addition to brothers Nicholas, Raphael and Michael, sons of Paul, and Zuetk, son of Staulen, all four originated from [[Koprivnica]]. Nicholas Hahót also signed a contract with them to transmit the banate's share of the collection of taxes for one-year deadline.{{odn|B. Halász|2010|str=11}}

The citizens of [[Zadar]] rebelled against the Republic of Venice and accepted Louis' suzerainty.{{odn|Fine|1994|str=339}} The city also sent its delegation to Zagreb, but delayed and Louis meanwhile returned to Visegrád. Venice decided to protect its interests in Dalmatia, obtained support or neutral positions of other Dalmatian – such as Nin, [[Dubrovnik]], [[Trogir]] and [[Rab (town)|Rab]] – ports, gathered troops and unexpectedly started to [[Siege of Zadar (1345–46)|besiege]] the city and the surrounding castles on 12 August 1345.{{odn|Kristó|1988|str=101}} According to reports, Nicholas Hahót personally mediated between Louis and Zadar, and encouraged the burghers to actively revolt.{{odn|Markó|2006|str=452}} Louis dispatched Stephen Kotromanić to assist the burghers of Zadar, but his army did not fight against the Venetians. According to a chronicle written by an anonymous [[Minorites|Minorite]] friar, Venice bribed the Hungarian commanders, Stephen Kotromanić and Nicholas Hahót not to interfere in the skirmish.{{odn|B. Halász|2010|str=9}} Louis's brother, [[Andrew, Duke of Calabria]], was murdered in [[Aversa]] on 18 September 1345, which caused the emergence of the [[Neapolitan campaigns of Louis the Great|Neapolitan issue]], marginalizing the Dalmatian campaign. In April 1346, Louis marched to Dalmatia to relieve Zadar, but the Venetians again bribed his commanders, Kotromanić, Lackfi and Hahót, according to the above-mentioned chronicle. When the citizens broke out and attacked the besiegers on 1 July, the royal army failed to intervene, and the Venetians overcame the defenders outside the walls of the town. Although the king commissioned Nicholas to organize the city's food supply, the ban belatedly and slowly fulfilled the task. As a result, the citizens considered him as a traitor. Lacking military support from Louis, Zadar surrendered to the Venetians on 21 December 1346.{{odn|Kristó|1988|str=105}}

According to a charter, Nicholas wounded in the clashes against Venice at Zadar.{{odn|B. Halász|2010|str=9}} Few days after the failure in July, Louis dismissed him as Ban of Slavonia and Croatia and replaced with [[Nicholas Szécsi]], one of the most influential barons in the second half of the 14th century.{{odn|Engel|1996|str=22}}{{odn|Markó|2006|str=452}} That fact could confirm the information of the Minorite friar in connection with the bribery. While historians [[Gyula Kristó]], [[Pál Engel]] and Antal Pór accepted the friar's theory, B. Halász argued, Nicholas did not lost his political influence, as appeared as ad litem judge in several times at [[Buda]] throughout 1347, and also received land donations from Louis during that time. For Louis, the [[Kingdom of Naples]] became a more important scene than Dalmatia and Zadar, where Nicholas Hahót, who had decades of military experience, could have provided a much greater service to the king, B. Halász emphasized.{{odn|B. Halász|2010|str=9}}

===Second term===
The anonymous Minorite friar narrated in his work that Nicholas was among those barons who escorted Duke Andrew's [[Posthumous birth|posthumous]] son, the infant [[Charles Martel, Duke of Calabria|Charles Martel]], who was transferred from Naples to Visegrád in February 1348. Louis recognised his nephew as the legitimate ruler of Naples and also laid claim to the regency of the kingdom during the minority of Charles Martel. The king appointed Nicholas as the tutor of little duke, but Charles Martel died only three months after his arrival on 10 May 1348.{{odn|B. Halász|2010|str=10}} Around August 1349, Nicholas was made ''ispán'' of Zala County for the second time. He held that position until December 1351.{{odn|Engel|1996|str=235}}

In 1351, Louis made his youngest brother [[Stephen, Duke of Slavonia|Stephen]] as [[Duke of Slavonia|Duke of Croatia and Dalmatia]], before finally trusting him with the government of Slavonia in 1353. Stephen's political role was nevertheless rather insignificant, despite that he was [[heir presumptive]] after Charles Martel, his nephew's death. Louis reinstated Nicholas to the combined dignity of Ban of Croatia, Dalmatia and Slavonia to administer the province on behalf of Duke Stephen in April 1353, replacing Stephen Lackfi, who died in office.{{odn|Engel|1996|str=17}} In the summer of 1354, both Duke Stephen and Ban Nicholas participated in Louis' military campaign against the [[Serbian Empire]], forcing [[Stefan Dušan]] to withdraw from the region along the river Sava. Duke Stephen died in a pandemic during the expedition on 9 August 1354.{{odn|B. Halász|2010|str=10}} The new-born [[John, Duke of Slavonia|John]] was installed Duke of Slavonia after his father's death, with his mother [[Margaret of Bavaria, Duchess of Slavonia|Margaret]] as nominal regent, but in reality, Nicholas governed the province, Margaret and her son even resided in Buda until mid-1355.{{odn|B. Halász|2010|str=10}}

Taking advantage of the inner war within the Šubić clan, Louis determined to acquire the remaining Dalmatian cities. After the death of [[Mladen III Šubić]] in 1348, [[Klis Fortress|Klis]] and [[Skradin]] were ruled by his widow [[Jelena Nemanjić Šubić|Jelena]], in the name of their son Mladen IV. She was unable to defend the cities from the many pretenders, she asked her brother Stefan Dušan for aid, who sent an army, led by knight [[Palman]] and [[Đuraš Ilijić]], to defend Klis and Skradin, respectively. Louis entrusted Nicholas to launch a campaign against the forts in 1355. The Serbians were not able to hold out the pressure of the Hungarian army. Upon the king's order, Nicholas Hahót besieged and captured Klis and [[Omiš]].{{odn|B. Halász|2010|str=10}}{{odn|Engel|1996|str=380}} Following that Serbia started to disintegrate after the death of Stefan Dušan in December 1355.{{odn|Fine|1994|str=345}} A new war broke out between the Kingdom of Hungary and the Republic of Venice over Dalmatia in the spring of 1356 and the royal court decided to end the duchy of Slavonia's autonomy, Margaret was thus deprived of nominal regency. Despite his military success a few weeks ago, Nicholas was also dismissed from his dignity, replaced by [[Leustach Paksi]].{{odn|Engel|1996|str=17}} In the next year, he was appointed [[Master of the treasury]] in the court of [[Elizabeth of Bosnia]], the second queen consort to Louis I.{{odn|Engel|1996|str=55}} Beside that he also functioned as ''ispán'' of the [[Segesd]] queenly estate, laid in [[Somogy County (former)|Somogy County]].{{odn|Engel|1996|str=174}} Nicholas Hahót died in 1359.{{odn|B.

Nicholas Hahót had six sons and a daughter from his marriage to an unidentified noblewoman. His sons entered political service only in the 1360s, after their father's death. They started to call themselves Bánfi (or Bánffy) meaning the "son of a Ban" in reference to their influential and deeply respected father who had been the Ban of Dalmatia and Croatia and thus restored royal power over the country after seven decades. Two of Nicholas' sons, Stephen I and John I Bánfi themselves also served as Bans of Croatia jointly from 1381 to 1385, while the latter one was Ban of Macsó too between 1386 and 1387.{{odn|Markó|2006|str=438}} The powerful Bánfi family, which flourished until 1645, descended directly from John, as Stephen's branch became extinct after two generations.<ref name=hahot/> Nicholas Hahót's other two sons, Francis and Nicholas VIII predeceased their father without issue, while Nicholas I Bánfi had three daughters, leaving no male heir. The sixth son Ladislaus' branch also died out after three generations, as his son Sigismund had at least six daughters but no son. Nicholas' only unidentified daughter married Henry Rohonci, a descendant of the Hahóts' archenemy, the Kőszegi family.<ref name=hahot/>
