Gojko BalšićorGojko Balsha (Serbian: Гојко Балшић; Albanian: Gojko Balsha;[3] fl. 1444)[A] and his brothers George Strez and John were the lords of Misia, a coastal area from the White Drin towards the Adriatic. The brothers were members of the house of Balšić, which earlier held the Lordship of Zeta. They participated in founding the League of Lezhë, an alliance led by their maternal uncle Gjergj Kastrioti Skanderbeg. Gojko supported Skanderbeg until the latter's death in 1468, and then continued to fight against the Ottomans within Venetian forces.
There are two views of his genealogy. According to Gjon Muzaka and Karl Hopf, Ivan (John, Gjon) and Gojko Strez Balšić were in fact children of Vlajka Kastrioti and Stefan Strez who was a son of Đurađ Balšić, an illegitimate child of Đurađ I Balšić.[4][5] According to Fan Noli, Gojko had two brothers (George Strez and Ivan), both children of Jela Kastrioti[2] and Pavle Balšić. Both views confirm that Gojko was Skanderbeg's nephew.[2][6]
Gojko married Komita Arianiti, a daughter of Gjergj Arianiti.[7] According to Gjon Muzaka, they had two sons and one daughter, Maria. The sons died in Hungary.[8] Muzaka stated that Maria married the Count of Muro and had two daughters, Beatrice and Isabel. Beatrice, married Prince Ferdinand Orsini, Duke of Gravina while Isabel, married Lord Louis of Gesualdo, Count of Conza.[8]
Gojko and his brothers were lords of Misia, a coastal area from the White Drin towards the Adriatic.[1] The three Balšić brothers joined the League of Lezhë, an alliance formed by their maternal uncle Skanderbeg, after meeting in the St. Nicholas Church in Lezhë on March 2, 1444. The members included Lekë Zaharia, Peter Spani, Lekë Dushmani, Andrea Thopia, Gjergj Arianiti, Theodor Musachi, Stefan Crnojević, and their subjects.[A] Skanderbeg was elected its leader, and commander in chief of its armed forces numbering a total of 8,000 warriors.[9][10]
Gojko's brother George cancelled his support to Skanderbeg after a while, while Gojko and John supported Skanderbeg until his death in 1468.[2] After Skanderbeg's death Gojko and John Balšić together with Leke, Progon and Nicholas Dukagjini, continued to fight for Venice.[11]
Name: His name is written in Latin documents as Coico Balsa.
Scanderbeg had three Balsha nephews from his sister Yella. Of these only George Stresi Balsha betrayed him, while the two others, John and Gioka, served him loyally to the end
Bezüglich der Strez herrscht Verwirrung. Hopf macht Ivo und Gojko BalSid zu Söhnen des Stefan Strez, welcher Vlajka Kastriota geheiratet hätte und Sohn des Gjuragj Balšić gewesen wäre, eines Bastards des Gjuragj I.
To the fourth sister, Lady Vlaica, who was married to Lord Balsha, was born John and Coico Balsha.
die Skanderbegs Personlichkeit gelassen hatte, nicht zu füllen. Deshalb muste Venedig wie in den Jahrzehnten vor Skanderbeg mit einer Vielzahl von Adligen zusammenarbeiten; neben Leka, Progon und Nikola Dukagjin gehörten zu dieser Schicht auch Comino Araniti, wohl derselbe, der 1466 Durazzo überfallen hatte; die Söhne von Juani Stexi, di Johann Balsha, Machthaber zwischen Alessio und Kruja; Gojko Balsha und seine söhne der woiwode Jaran um Kruja (1477), und auch der mit seinem Erbe überforderte Johann Kastriota.
Никола Дукађин убио је Леку Закарију. Према млетачком хроничару Стефану Мању убио га је『у битки』као његов вазал. Мада Барлеције погрешно наводи да је убиство извршио Лека Дукађин
