Ioan I Joldea (pronunciation: [jo̯an-ʒolde̯a]) was Prince of Moldavia in September of 1552.[1]
Reign
Joldea, a Moldavian boyar with the rank of commissar, was elected lord in the Țuţora camp by the Sturza and Moghila boyars, after the murder of Ștefan VI Rareș on September 8, 1552. This fact sparked hostilities in Krakow. King Sigismund II Augustus was going to enthrone Alexandru Lăpușneanu, the son of Bogdan III the One-Eyed, in Suceava. Joldea had chosen Ruxandra, the daughter of Petru Rareș, as his wife, in order to be entitled to occupy the throne of the country.
Joldea was heading to Suceava to be anointed lord, but his mistake was the stop at Șipote. Alexandru Lăpușneanu, with support from the nobles Seniawiski and Moțoc, tricked Joldea and his loyal boyars. Joldea was notched in the nose so that he no longer had the right to reign and was made a monk.[clarification needed]
