# Talk:Andrew II of Hungary

I'd also add Pal Engel's 'The Crown of St Stephen - A History of Medieval Hungary' (I'm pretty sure that's the title, I have it in England but I live in Japan at the moment) as a thorough source in English for this reign.  I'm not adding any info to the Hungarian kings, because pretty much anything I could write would just be taken ad vertabim from Engel's book.  I reccomend it though, for anyone with an interest in this area - especially as it gives a lot of info on the more obscure kings such as Stephen II or Bela I etc

" After a drawn battle with the Turks on the Jordan River on November 10, 1217 and fruitless assaults on the fortresses of the Lebanon and on Mount Tabor, Andrew started home (January 18, 1218). On the way home, he negotiated with King Levon I of Armenia, the Emperor Theodore I Laskaris of Nicaea and Tsar Ivan Asen II of Bulgaria and arranged several marriage contracts between his children and the courts he visited. When he was staying in Nicaea, his cousins, who had been living there, made an unsuccesfull attempt on his life."
Then why he is the "King of Jerusalem"? And why all preceeding kings have called themselves, too, "King of Jerusalem" Abdulka (talk) 17:03, 3 March 2008 (UTC)
Neither he or his predecessors styled themselves "King of Jerusalem". The first King of Hungary who used the title was Charles II, but he inherited it as King of Naples.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 213.134.28.71 (talk) 18:29, 12 March 2008 (UTC) 
You are incorrect, all Hungarian kings after him called themselves, as one of the titles, "King of Jerusalem". Did Naples conquer Jerusalem? Abdulka (talk) 00:42, 21 May 2008 (UTC)
After the crusades, the title "King of Jerusalem" was just a symbolic title, which was confered by the papacy.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 84.0.251.227 (talk) 09:33, 19 April 2010 (UTC) 

According to the article, he died on September 21. Articles on other wikipedias are talking about October 26. Moreover, he is to be found at the deaths on October 26 of the english wikipedia. What is true? Any source?--Kostisl (talk) 11:04, 27 October 2012 (UTC)

Szegedi László, please also read WP:3RR, because unexplained reverts may have had serious consequences. Borsoka (talk) 10:19, 21 February 2017 (UTC)

Andrew was invited to Galich. His reign was not a consequence of conquest
More detailed:
Bela was invited as an assistant to Prince Volodymyr, deprived of the throne. However, coming to Galich. Bela made an agreement with the residents of the city about the transfer of power to them ("даде весь нарѧдъ Галичанамъ"), the guarantee of which was the presence of Andrew.

Is there a reliable source verifying the above claim? (Please remember that Béla had invaded the principality before granting it to his son, according to all sources cited in the article.) Borsoka (talk) 13:58, 28 January 2018 (UTC)
