It worked in such a way that the function of the Duke was in essence the same thing a Ban (Viceroy) would do in the absence of a royal Duke/Junior King. The term "Whole Slavonia" (Slavonia being an exonym i.e. from a Hungarian perspective) encompassed the entire territory from the Drava river down to the Adriatic Sea i.e. Croatian-Dalmatian kingdom.  -->
