Vukašin Mrnjavčević (
Jovan Uglješa
.
In folk tradition, Vukašin is referred to as a usurper and, wrongly, the murderer of
Tsar Uroš. He was often considered de facto ruler of Serbian Empire
during the reign of Uroš.
Background
According to 17th-century
Marko.[5] The Ugarčić clan is attested in contemporary sources as inhabiting the region of Trebinje.[7]
After Serbia had expanded southwards into Macedonia, the local feudal lords—Greeks—were replaced with Serbs, many of whom were from Zachlumia and Travunia.Ser. Later he became strong enough to disobey Uroš. By 1369, as Uroš was childless, Vukašin designated his eldest son Prince Marko as heir to the throne, with the title of "young king".[10]
In 1370 he contributed to the monasteries of
Lala Şâhin Paşa at the Battle of Maritsa on 26 September 1371 where superior Ottoman tactics won over, outnumbering the coalition army.[12] The Ottomans attacked the Serbian Army while they rested and Vukašin's forces were routed and himself killed during the battle.[11]
