He ascended the throne of Moldova with the help of Prince of Transylvania Sigismund Bathory . This caused discontent of Poland , as she believed that the Moldavian principality was within its sphere of influence. In August 1595, the Poles entered Moldavia, placing the grave on the throne of Jeremiah . Razvan fled to his patrons in Hungary, collected reinforcements and returned, but was captured at the Tomb after the battle in December 1595 and ended up living on a stake.
