Event: Non-enforcement of Ordinances
Monarchs ruled by issuing ordinances, but they were almost powerless to enforce them. Enforcement depended upon the local powers and they would not always be as vigilant as the monarchs would have desired.

December 1450
The Death of King Durad I!
Glorious King Durad has passed away! The throne has been passed down to his son, Lazar II (2/1/1).

As a result of the leadership change, the Serbian people have had a slight loss of confidence in the kingdom, causing a stability drop.

Wallachia has offered a royal marriage after ties were severed in Durad's death.

January 1451
Relations with Wallachia have been improved and the mission has been completed. Serbia gains 3 prestige.

A new royal marriage has been established with Austria under King Lazar II's rule.

January 1452
Event: Local Noble's Power Grows
Though intrigue at court, skillful alliances and exploitation of his local realm, one of Serbia's kingdom nobles has grown incredible wealthy and powerful. If he is not dealt with now, he may become a pretender to the Serbian throne, though reducing his power will prove difficult given his influence and private retainers that he maintains as part of his own small army.

The choice is to ignore him. Serbia loses 10 prestige and the province of Serbia gets 'Powerful Noble' until September 1452, causing the tax and manpower modifier to be reduced 50%.

Mission Complete: Hunyad has been claimed. Serbian gains 5 prestige and 25 military power.

Serbia has also gained a conquest Casus Belli against Hungary for the province. Unfortunately, Hungary is currently stronger than Serbia and is also flanked by the powerful kingdom of Burgundy.
