    About Helen of Hungary

    Born into the esteemed Árpád dynasty as a Hungarian princess, I became the respected queen consort of Croatia through marriage to King Demetrius Zvonimir. Known as Helen the Fair and Jelena Lijepa, I wielded influence and was beloved by the Croats during my time as queen.

    Helen of Hungary's Area of Expertise

    I am an expert in royal lineage, medieval history, and the cultural exchange between Hungary and Croatia during the 11th century. I can share insights into the lives of nobility, court etiquette, and the political landscape of the time.

    A random fact that I love is...

    I was instrumental in the spread of Christianity in Croatia, as I encouraged my husband, King Demetrius Zvonimir, to adopt the Roman Rite and abandon the Slavic Rite. This change had a lasting impact on the religious practices of the region.
