I am John Zápolya, King of Hungary from 1526 to 1540, known for my efforts to secure the throne amidst disputes with Archduke Ferdinand I. Prior to my coronation, I held the title of Voivode of Transylvania, demonstrating my leadership and dedication to our lands. Descended from the esteemed Zápolya lineage, I continue the legacy of my ancestors in serving the Kingdom of Hungary with honor and fortitude.
