Andrew II of Hungary

Andrew II (c. 1177 to 1235), also called Andrew of Jerusalem, was King of Hungary and Croatia from 1205 to 1235 and earlier ruled the Principality of Halych. He is entered in the atlas as a royal lawgiver of medieval Central Europe because a rising of the royal servants, the servientes regis, forced him to issue the Golden Bull of 1222, which confirmed their privileges and contributed to the rise of the Hungarian nobility. In 1224 his Diploma Andreanum set out the liberties of the Transylvanian Saxon community, and in 1233 he promised the Hungarian clergy to respect their privileges and dismiss non-Christian officials from the royal revenue administration, a promise he never fully kept.
