Anna of Wallachia

[1] She was the daughter of Nicholas Alexander of Wallachia and his Catholic second wife, the Hungarian Clara Dobokai.

[3][4] The marriage was a reaction to Ivan Alexander's divorce from Theodora and was aimed at weakening the position of the new empress, Sarah-Theodora.

It is not known whether Theodora had any role in the arrangement of the wedding between her son and her niece or whether it was done on her initiative.

The ruling family was held captive in the castle of Humnik (in Bosiljevo, Croatia), where they were forced to convert to Catholicism.

One of them died at a young age but Dorothea married the Ban (and later King) of Bosnia Tvrtko I. Anna is also known to have ordered the Vidin Psalter of 1359–1360.
