Peter and Orseolo
Peter Orseolo (; c. 1010-1015 – 1046 or 30 August 1059 ), called the Venetian in Hungarian, was King of Hungary from 1038 to 1041 and from 1044 to 1046.

Ottone Orseolo succeeded his father, Pietro II, as the doge of Venice until 1026, while his grandson Peter reigned as King of Hungary.
As a result of the failed assassination attempt, he was excluded from the royal succession in favour of Peter Orseolo.
He was the son of Leopold the Illustrious and was married to Glismod of West-Saxony and Frozza Orseolo ( who later took the name of Adelheid ), the sister of Peter Urseolo of Hungary.
The king wanted to secure the position of Christianity in his semi-pagan kingdom and therefore he planned to name his sister's son, Peter Orseolo as his successor.
The Venetian Doge Peter II Orseolo finally crushed them in 998 and assumed the title duke of the Dalmatians ( Dux Dalmatianorum ), though without prejudice to Byzantine suzerainty.
