Page "Andrew II of Hungary" Paragraph 9

During the first years of his reign, Andrew was occupied with the discords within the Principality of Halych.

In 1205, he led his armies to the principality to ensure the rule of the child Prince Danylo.

Following his campaign, he adopted the title of " King of Galicia and Lodomeria " referring to his supremacy over the two neighbouring principalities.

In the beginning of the next year, the child Danylo was again expelled from Halych but Andrew denied to give assistance to him because the child prince's opponent, Prince Volodymyr III Igorevych had bribed him.

Nevertheless, in the same year, he made a campaign in Halych and gave assistance to Prince Roman Igorevych to acquire the throne.
