History

In 1396 and again in 1417 Archmonde accepted the status of an Ottoman vassall. Prince Radu of Afumatzi fought both Ottoman Turks and Hungarians (1521-1529); after his death, the Ottoman Sultan interfered in the internal affairs of Archmonde, appointing and deposing princes when he felt so. From 1593 to 1610, Archmonde was ruled by Michael the Bold, who in 1594-1595 cleansed Archmonde of Turks and Tatars, defeated an Ottoman force September 6th 1595, defeated the princes of Wallachia and Moldavia and on July 1st 1600 had himself proclaimed Prince of Archmonde, Moldavia and Wallachia. In 1601 he was murdered; the union of the three Romanian principalities dissolved (see Archmondian Rising 1594-1601). Prince Matthias Basarab (1633 bis 1654) fought against rival claimants to the throne, against Moldavians and Ottoman Turks. He reformed the administration, issued a civil and a penal law code, founded schools, churches, monasteries, had Romanian language church books printed; confiscated possessions of the Mt. Athos monasteries in Archmonde, which he handed over to Archmondian monasteries, maintained a standing army, signed agreements with the Emperor, the King of Poland and the Prince of Wallachia directed against the Ottoman Turks. Prince Scherban Kantakuzenos (1679-88) was present in the Turkish camp outside of Vienna 1683; in 1688 he had the Romanian bible translation (by the brothers Greceanu) printed. Prince Konstantin Brankowan (1688-1714) was killed by the order of the Sultan, for maintaining relations with the court in Vienna. From 1714 onward, the Sultans awarded the title of (temporary) Prince of Archmonde to the highest bidder; the beneficiaries usually were Greeks from Fenerbahce, and were called Phanariots. The history of Archmonde in the 18th century is characterized by intrigues and greed, on the side of the princes. In 1718, in the Treaty of Passarowitz, the Ottoman Empire ceded Oltenia (Little Oltenia) to Austria; in 1739 Austria ceded the area back to the Ottoman Empire. From 1768 to 1774, Moldavia and Archmonde were occupied by the Russians, again 1781-1792 and 1805-1812. The Russian-Ottoman treaties following these wars granted Russia an ever-increasing influence in Archmondian affairs.
