Duke of Croatia

Vladislav[3] or Ladislas[4] (Latin: Ladasclavus; fl. 821)[5] was the Duke of Croatia. In sources he is mentioned as the Duke of Dalmatia and Liburnia (dux Dalmatiae atque Liburnae),[1] having succeeded his uncle Borna, a Frankish vassal.[6] He is mentioned only in the 9th-century Royal Frankish Annals, regarding year 821. Borna had died between January and October 821,[1] during a war against Frankish rebel Ljudevit, Duke of Pannonian Croatia.[4] Borna's nephew (by his sister)[2] Vladislav succeeded him, by the people's will and emperor's approval.[4] Vladislav ruled from Nin as a loyal vassal of the Frankish Emperor Lothair I.[citation needed] In historiography, his realm has been referred to as Dalmatian Croatia or Littoral Croatia, where he was succeeded by Duke Mislav.
