Title: Michael II Apafi
Content:  Michael Apafi (Apafi Mihály; 13 October 1676 &ndash; 1 February 1713) was the son of the Hungarian Michael I Apafi and Anna Bornemisza. Following his father, he was Prince of Transylvania from 10 June 1690 to 1699. Michael had been associated with his father as ruler since 10 June 1681 and had been confirmed as heir by the Ottomans. At his father's death, the Turks however recognized Imre Thököly, an anti-Habsburg claimant of Hungary, as Prince of Transylvania. Thököly briefly held Transylvania in 1690/91 but left the country after his generals had been defeated by Habsburg troops. In the meantime, Michael's advisors had reached an agreement with Emperor Leopold, who granted in 1690 the country administrative, economic and

The Transylvanian princely council resolved that Transylvania would not support the conspirators without Fazıl Ahmed's authorization. Opposed to the Holy Roman Emperor Leopold I, he supported the Ottomans and Hungarian rebels until the Ottoman defeat at the Battle of Vienna on 12 September 1683. Following this, Michael opened talks with Leopold and concluded a treaty with the Austrians on 27 September 1687, obtaining their recognition of his authority in Transylvania. He died at Fogaras (Făgăraș) in 1690 and was succeeded by his son Michael II Apafi. A manor house in Mălâncrav belonging to Michael I Apafi has recently been restored by the Mihai Eminescu Trust.

Content:  Apafi spent more than three years in captivity before his wife could raise his ransom. The sum of his ransom is unknown, but Anna Bornemissza must have converted parts of their property into cash. She sold their village of Almakerék (Mălâncrav), according to 19th-century historians. After his return to Transylvania in 1661, Apafi settled in his estates. The Ottoman sultan appointed Kuchuk Ali, Pasha (or governor) of Temeşvar Eyalet, to restore Ottoman suzerainty in Transylvania by force. Kuchuk Ali invaded the principality from the West in late June 1661. He offered the princely throne first to István Petky (a kinsman of Apafy), then to Pál Béldi, and then to István Lázár, but they refused the offer. Meanwhile, Crimean Tatars poured into the principality and joined Kuchuk Ali's troops in pillaging the countryside.

Content:  George II Rákóczi, Prince of Transylvania, invaded the Polish–Lithuanian Commonwealth without seeking the Ottoman sultan's consent in January 1657. He had concluded an agreement with King Charles X of Sweden about the partition of the Commonwealth and wanted to secure the Polish throne for himself. Rákóczi had also entered into correspondence with Count Miklós Zrínyi (or Nikola Zrinski), a prominent aristocrat in Royal Hungary, who offered the Hungarian throne to him against the Habsburg monarch, Leopold I. As a young Transylvanian nobleman, Michael Apafi accompanied Rákóczi to the Polish campaign. The new Grand Vizier of the Ottoman Empire, Köprülü Mehmed Pasha, had set

Before leaving Érsekújvár to winter at Belgrade late in October, the Grand Vizier allowed Apafi to return to Transylvania. The German mercenaries who were stationed at Székelyhíd (Săcueni) and Kolozsvár had not received their salaries for month. They mutinied and surrendered the two fortresses to Apafi early in 1664. Apafi intensified his diplomatic activities, seeking the Protestant monarchs' protection for Transylvania. He had already approached Lord Winchilsea, the English ambassador at Istanbul. In 1664, he sent letters directly to King Charles II of England. He also entered into correspondence with the head of the French diplomacy, Hugues de Lionne. Leopold I listed Apafi among his potential

Content:  Pasha appointed Apafi as prince and he did not dare to disobey. Kuchuk Ali ordered the delegates of the Three Nations to gather at a meadow near Marosvásárhely (Târgu Mureș) and to acknowledge Apafi's appointment on 14 September 1661. The Pasha demanded 250,000 florins as compensation for the costs of the war and further 50,000 florins as tribute. John Kemény captured Kolozsvár (Cluj-Napoca), but Montecuccoli withdrew most of his troops from Transylvania after learning of Apafi's ascension to the throne on 18 September. Montecuccoli left small German mercenary troops in five Transylvanian strongholds and Apafi vainly requested Leopold I to surrender them. Apafi convened the Diet to Kleinschelken (Șeica Mică) to secure the full legitimization of his rule, because his appointment violated the constitutional principle of the free election of the princes.

Content:  he fook the customary princely oath, the Diet installed him as prince on 20 November. The Diet set a fifteen-day deadline for all noblemen to acknowledge Apafi's rule, but Kemény did not obey. Köprülü Mehmed's son, Fazıl Ahmed Pasha, who succeeded his father as grand vizier on 1 November, addressed a letter to Apafi. He assured Apafi of the protection of the Ottoman sultan, Mehmed IV, but also reminded him that he had owed his throne only to Ottoman support. Apafi sent envoys to Kemény to achieve his rival's resignation in return for an amnesty, but Kemény had the envoys captured. Kemény died fighting against an Ottoman army near Grossalisch (Seleuș) on 22 January 1662. The commander of the Ottoman army, Kuchuk Mehmed, did not leave the principality after his victory.
