O moralnom stanju Bosne pred 1463. godinu
Morals in Bosnia Shortly Before 1463

Summary/Abstract: Death of the king Tvrtko I (1391) was a great loss for the State of Bosnia. Loyalty, obcdience and devoted service, the features which had united Tvrtko's state, suddenly weakened after his departure from the historic scene. Bosnian state was exposed to the great danger of exterior attack and interior crisis, as it had not being for a long time ago. While during the Tvrtko's reign the strength of the king had prevailed, under his indecisive and weak-willed successor Dabiša (1391-95) three of the landowncrs were in the foreground: Hrvoje Vukčić-Hrvatinić, Pavle Radusinović and Sandalj Hranić-Kosača. These landowners had followed the king until they felt themselves strong enough to turn their great feudal properties into independante little states from which they could enjoy the whole ammount of the rent and all the incomes realised through turnover of goods. In the Parliament of Bosnian landowners three of them were deciding about the election and changing of the kings, guided in that by their own personal interests.
