The Battle of Posada (9–12 November 1330)[3] was fought between Basarab I of Wallachia and Charles I of Hungary (also known as Charles Robert).
The small Wallachian army led by Basarab, formed of cavalry and foot archers, as well as local peasants, managed to ambush and defeat the 30,000-strong Hungarian army, in a mountainous region.
The battle resulted in a major Wallachian victory. Sălăgean writes that the victory "sanctioned the independence of Wallachia from the Hungarian crown" and altered its international status.[4] Georgescu describes Wallachia as the "first independent Romanian principality."[5] Although the kings of Hungary continued to demand loyalty from the voivodes of Wallachia, Basarab and his successors yielded to them only temporarily in the 14th century.[6]
