Years: 1599 - 1599
Andreas Báthory, a Roman Catholic, has become increasingly active in the Counter-Reformation, to the dismay of the leading Transylvanian nationalists, most of whom are Protestant.
He decides in 1599, to take holy orders; he separates from his wife, the archduchess Christina of Austria, and gives up his throne, offering it to Emperor Rudolf (who is also king of Hungary) in exchange for the Silesian duchy of Oppeln (Opole).
