Koppány’s defeat was soon followed by a similar defeat of the gyula of Eastern Hungary (Transylvania), and by the subsequent abolishment of that office altogether. (Because of the relative remoteness of that province from the center of royal power, the future kings of Hungary will maintain a royal governor there called the vajda (voyevod), and this will give Transylvania a degree of regional autonomy not enjoyed by any other part of Hungary, except the Kingdom of Croatia. The establishment of the office of the vajda may perhaps also be viewed as the continuation of the office of the gyula.) When his time came, the gyula apparently surrendered to Stephen without much struggle. Although taken prisoner, he remaianed alive and well, and he may even have participated in Stephen’s defeat of Ajtony of the Tisza-Maros region. Ajtony’s turn came in 1003 or 1004, and his defeat had certain foreign policy implications. Although he had ruled as a near-independent prince, in his rivalry with Géza and Stephen he relied increasingly on Bulgarian support. Thus, the war agains Ajtony (as well as the one against Keán, which occurred roughly between the gyula’s and Ajtony’s defeat) took the shape of a Hungarian-Bulgarian encounter. But as Tsar Samuel of Bulgaria was already struggling for the very existence of his empire against the powerful Byzantine ruler Basil II, the Bulgar Killer (Bulgaroctonos), he could hardly extend meaningful support to Ajtony. Thus, left without the hacking of his ally, Ajtony was defeated, and he also lost his life in this encounter. With his death the last of the great challengers of King Stephen went to his grave, and along with him went tribalism and the “seniority” rule. Stephen was now free to undertake the implementation of his father’s and his own grand design: The transformation of the outdated Magyar tribal federation into a centralized Christian Hungarian Kingdom, and the making of this Christian Hungary into an accepted member of the European community of nations. 74 WVUD — F.
