Andrew II the Jerosolimitan (Hungarian: Jeruzs?lemi II Andr?s/Endre, Ukrainian: ?????? II, Croatian: Andrija II. Arpadovic, Slovak: Ondrej II., Serbian: ??????? II) (c. 1177 ? 21 September 1235) was King of Hungary (1205?1235) and Croatia (1205?1235). He was the younger son of King B?la III of Hungary, who invested him with the government of the Principality of Halych. However, the boyars of Halych rebelled against his rule and expelled the Hungarian troops. Following their father's death, Andrew continuously conspired against his brother, King Emeric of Hungary who had to grant him the government of Croatia and Dalmatia. When his brother and his infant son died, Andrew ascended the throne and started to grant royal domains to his partisans. He participated in the Fifth Crusade but he could not achieve any major military success. He was obliged to issue the Golden Bull confirming the privileges of the noblemen of Hungary and later he was also obliged to confirm the special privileges of the clergy.
