- Abstract
The present paper offers an analysis regarding the authority of Michael Appafi, prince of Transylvania, in comparison to Gabriel Bethlen's and George Rakoczi's I. The political context and the terms imposed by the Estates after their ascension to the throne are compared gradually, as well as the economical and military aspects and the princely authority in relation to the Transylvanian Estates. This approach allows a more nuanced reflection on the longest reign in the history of the Principality of Transylvania (Michael Appafi, 1661-1690). It is considered that only the final part of his reign (particularly after 1683) was the time when the group of nobles surrounding the prince imposes its own policy and influence, as a result of a changing balance of power between the Habsburg and the Ottoman empires.
