Radoslav of Duklja

Radoslav of Duklja

Radoslav Gradišnić was the Prince of Duklja, from 1146 to 1148, when Coastal Serb Prince Desa, another dynastic pretender, took Zeta and Travunia from Radoslav and unified the coastal Principalities under his firm grip. He succeeded his father, Gradihna, as ruler of Dioclea. However, Radoslav had to travel to Byzantine emperor Manuel Comenus in Constantinople to gain the authority to rule over Dioclea, which he did. Compared to his father and the other rulers of Dioclea, Radoslav was the only one to wear the title "Prince" rather than "King", which was a symbol of a decline in Dioclea's reputation and power, as well as its dependence and vassalage position towards the Byzantines. Radoslav divided Dioclea's power with his brothers Jovan and Vladimir.
