Border-land uprisings in 1658 and 1666

Đuro Škvorc ; Varaždinska ulica 34 a, HR-48260 Križevci

Abstract

Uprisings resulted from violating and disrespecting already granted privileges, and imposing too much labour on border-land people, such as wood transporting, digging and clearing ditches around fortresses but also from interpersonal struggles of the judges. three captaincies were affected: those of Ivanić, of Križevci and of Koprivnica, but the consequences could be felt wherever the Vlachs lived. Suppressing of the mentioned uprisings helped Herberstein to succeed in military hierarchy, put more power into the hands of all commanders and hastened the abolition of judging institutions. It certainly weakened the position of Marcha bishops and their influence on borderers.
