Attempts of the Venetian Republic to assassinate Sigismund of Luxemburg 1415-1419

The conflict between Venice and Hungarian King Sigismund based on their dis pute about Dalmatia, culminated in the second decade of the 15th century. A fter the war of 1411-1413 Sigismund planned commercial blockade of the Vene tian Republic. Therefore Venetian Council of the Ten dealt with many propos als for the assassination of the King in the years 1415-1419. The project f or poisoning the King did not take place because the risk of disclosure was great and the political and military events after 1420 proved the dominanc e of Venice in the area. After having signed the two-year alliance and the armistice of the year 1433, it was obvious that Dalmatia would remain under Venice.
