Little progress was made, as the English refused to recognise Robert the Bruce as King of Scots, although a truce was agreed in 1323, to last thirteen years. Edward II claimed he adhered to this truce, but he allowed English privateers to attack Flemish vessels trading with Scotland. For example, privateers seized the Flemish vessel "Pelarym", worth £2,000, and massacred all the Scots on board. Robert the Bruce demanded justice, but in vain,
King of Hungary the transfer of the claim, and he declared that it is only the Archbishop of Esztergom who is entitled to crown the King of Hungary. The King Charles I of Hungary was crowned in May 1301 with a provisional crown in Esztergom by the Archbishop of this city, that lead to his second coronation in June 1309. In this time the Holy Crown wasn't used and he was crowned in Buda by the archbishop of Esztergom.
