In 1456 after the death of his rival John Hunyadi, Ulrich II was named Captain General of Hungary, an office previously held by John Hunyadi.

On the death of Wladislaus I in the Battle of Varna (10 November 1444), the Hungarian estates, not without considerable opposition, elected Ladislaus Postumus as their king and sent a deputation to Vienna to induce the Emperor to surrender the child and the Holy crown, which Frederick first refused.
As Celje became increasingly inimical towards John Hunyadi, who bore the main burden of the battle against the Ottomans, Celje (and with him Ladislaus) remained supremely indifferent to the Turkish threat.
When, after the Siege of Nándorfehérvár, Celje was murdered by Laszlo Hunyadi in revange for his assassination attempt on him on November 9, 1456, Ladislaus procured the decapitation of young Hunyadi, who was executed on March 16, 1457.

 Croatia HISTORY
Hunyadi had to protect the throne from the counts of Celje, who, in 1453, also claimed the title of ban of Croatia.
The Hapsburg rulers began to encroach on the rights of Croats by turning the throne from a traditionally elected position into a hereditary one, and by allocating Croatian lands as fiefs to their supporters, turning the Croatian peasants from free men into serfs.
The last king of the male Hapsburg line was Charles III (r.1711–1740).
