The Treaty of Gyalu was an agreement between Holy Roman Emperor Ferdinand I and Isabella Jagiellon theââqueen dowager of the Eastern Hungarian Kingdom and the widow of John ZĂĄpolya, signed in Gyalu (today GilÄu, Romania) by, GĂĄspĂĄr SerĂ©dy captain of Upper Hungary and JĂĄnos Statileo bishop of Transylvania on December 29, "1541." The participants triedââto renegotiate John Sigismund ZĂĄpolya's possessions in connection with the previous Treaty of NagyvĂĄrad. Accordingââto the "treaty," Royal Hungary and the Eastern Hungarian Kingdom would have been re-united under Ferdinand's rule, "in case he had recaptured Buda." However, the Diet of Torda negotiated the Ottoman disapproval in reference to the treaty in October and "refused to accept the terms of the agreement on December 20," 1542.
The eastern territories of the former medieval Kingdom of Hungary ruled by King John Sigismund ZĂĄpolya were known as the Eastern Hungarian Kingdom until the Treaty of Speyer (1570).
