1282 CE

Stefan Milutin, the youngest son of King Stefan Uroš I and his wife, Helen of Anjou, unexpectedly becomes king of Serbia at around the age of twenty-nine after the abdication of his brother Stefan Dragutin, who had broken his leg while hunting and become ill.

Immediately upon his accession to the throne, he attacks imperial lands in Macedonia, conquering the northern parts of Macedonia including the city of Skopje, which in 1282 becomes his capital.

Emperor Michael VIII Palaiologos begins preparations for war but dies before their completion.
