Django Mirga

Django Lamba Mirga was a Romani warlord from the Jassic Khanate who fought against the Kingdom of Poland in the High Middle Ages. Django was able to secure an independent kingdom in Eastern Europe, and use it to wage a defensive war against the Kingdom of Poland, which at the time was trying to annex the Jassic Khanate.

Mirga was born in 982 to a Romani family living around the area that would become the city of Bratislava. Mirga reached adulthood within the twilight years of the khanate and consolidated a semi-autonomous kingdom in the East, after being denied the position of tribal authority in the Khanate. With the Polish Invasion of Jassland, Mirga united several Romani, Jassic, and Slavic chiefs, petty kings, and warlords under his banner to fight against the Poles.

Mirga earned the title among the European Romani as "Django the Great". Being one of the final followers of the Polytheistic religion of the Romani, he came to be regarded as one of the final "Great Heathen Kings of Europe" alongside Knut the Fair of Norway and Mindaugas of Lithuania.
