The title was granted to him by Hungarian king Matthias Corvinus. From 1493, he shared the title with his brother Jovan. In 1497, \u0110or\u0111e relinquished all titles and possessions to his brother, and decided to take monastic vows, adopting the name Maksim (Serbian Cyrillic: \u041c\u0430\u043a\u0441\u0438\u043c). He built the Kru\u0161edol monastery, and served as diplomatic envoy for prince Radu IV the Great of Wallachia (1507). In 1513, he became Metropolitan of Belgrade.

The family later moved to northern Italy and acquired Castle Belgrado in the region of Friuli. His father, Despot Stefan, died in 1476, and young \u0110or\u0111e became his principal heir. In 1479, emperor Friedrich III granted them Castle Weitensfeld in Carinthia, and \u0110or\u0111e moved there with the rest of family.\u0110or\u0111e\u2032s first cousin Vuk Brankovi\u0107, titular Despot of Serbia, died on April 16, 1485, without direct heirs. His title and vast estates in the Kingdom of Hungary were left vacant, prompting Hungarian king Matthias Corvinus to find a suitable heir. He opted for the only remaining male members of Brankovi\u0107 family (\u0110or\u0111e and his brother Jovan), inviting them to come to Hungary.       (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({});after-content-x4In 1486, \u0110or\u0111e arrived in Hungary and received the title of Despot of Serbia from King Matthias, who granted him cities of Kupinik, Slankamen, and Berkasovo in Syrmia, as well as other towns which fell under these cities.In 1487, \u0110or\u0111e was married to Isabella del Balzo (d. 1498), daughter of Angilberto del Balzo, Duke of Nard\u00f2 in the Kingdom of Naples and his wife, Maria Conquista Orsini, Countess of Castro & Ugento, Duchess of Taurisano. Isabella was a cousin of Queen Beatrice, wife of King Matthias of Hungary.From 1493 forwards, \u0110or\u0111e ruled jointly with his brother Jovan, who was also granted the title Despot of Serbia, as it was customary in the Kingdom of Hungary that various senior posts should be held jointly by two incumbents. In 1494, the two brothers fought against Lawrence of Ilok, who had possessions in Syrmia and Slavonia. In December 1494, the brothers conquered Mitrovica, which they entrusted to their nobles.In 1497, despot \u0110or\u0111e decided to relinquish all of his titles and possessions to his brother. He took monastic vows, adopting the name Maksim (Serbian Cyrillic: \u041c\u0430\u043a\u0441\u0438\u043c). He built the Kru\u0161edol monastery in the region of Syrmia.       (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({});after-content-x4His brother, despot Jovan, died in 1502 without a male heir, and King Vladislaus II of Hungary arranged a new marriage for Jovan\u2032s widow Jelena Jak\u0161i\u0107, who remarried nobleman Ivani\u0161 Berislavi\u0107 in 1504. Berislavi\u0107 was granted the title of Serbian Despot, as well as control over the possessions of Jelena.Soon after that, Maksim left Hungary and went to the Principality of Wallachia, where he was welcomed by Prince Radu IV the Great (1495-1508), who entrusted Maksim with important diplomatic missions. In 1507, Maxim successfully mediated peace between Prince Radu of Walachia and Prince Bogdan III (1504-1517) of Moldavia.At the time of his stay in Wallachia, the Metropolitanate of Wallachia was undergoing the process of continuous institutional development. Maksim\u2032s name was enlisted in a diptych of local Hierarchs, and some historians suggested that he became bishop in one of Wallachian eparchies, or even Metropolitan of Wallachia, but other researchers have pointed out that there is no direct confirmation for such assumption.Upon his return to Hungary, he served as Metropolitan of Belgrade (from 1513). After his death in 1516, he was venerated as saint, and canonized by the Serbian Orthodox Church.He is mentioned, together with all of his family, in the “Dell’Imperadori Constantinopolitani”, or Massarelli manuscript, found in the papers of Angelo Massarelli (1510\u20131566).[15]Table of ContentsSainthood[edit]Gallery[edit]References[edit]Sources[edit]Sainthood[edit]Members of the Brankovi\u0107 dynasty were known for their devotion to Eastern Orthodox Christianity,[17] and \u0110or\u0111e Brankovi\u0107 (metropolitan Maksim) also represented that family tradition. He died on 18 January 1516, and early indications of sainthood aperared by 1523, in the time when Belgrade was already in Ottoman hands (since 1521). By that time, the Ottoman expansion has reached the Kru\u0161edol Monastery, where he was buried there. During those troubled times, his cult was founded in order to serve as a morale booster for the Serbs, who fought, together with the Hungarians and other Christians, against the invading Ottomans. At the same time, in the same place, and with the same idea, cults of all his family members were founded: his father’s, Stefan Brankovi\u0107 (d 1476), his mother’s, Angelina (at the same time as Maksim), and his brother’s, Jovan (d. 1502). During the 16th century, monks of Kru\u0161edol monastery celebrated those members of the Brankovi\u0107 dynasty, and hagiographies were written of Angelina and Maksim.The family members were buried at the Kru\u0161edol monastery and laid together in coffins at the altar. During the Austro-Turkish War (1716-1718), a Turkish army invaded Syrmia in 1716, captured Kru\u0161edol and burned the holy relics, shortly after the Battle of Petrovaradin. Only some minor parts of the relics were preserved.Ancestors of \u0110or\u0111e Brankovi\u0107Gallery[edit]Saints Maksim, Angelina, Jovan and Stefan Brankovi\u0107, by Andreja Rai\u010devi\u0107 (c. 1645)References[edit]Sources[edit]Andri\u0107, Stanko (2016). “Saint John Capistran and Despot George Brankovi\u0107: An Impossible Compromise”.
