Péter was born around 1504. He was the son of Peter I Erdődy, the nephew of Tamás Bakócz. He succeeded the famous Nikola IV Zrinski as ban in 1557. He first gained notoriety with a series of military victories against the Ottoman Empire in 1552, including setting fire to Gradiška with Juraj Frankopan.
He was given the titles of Reichsgraf in 1565 and Reichsfürst in 1566 by Maximilian II. Because he died soon (one year) after that, the titles weren't nostrificated[clarification needed]. The title of Reichsgraf was nostrificated in 1580 for his two sons Thomas II and Peter III by Rudolf II. But the title of Reichsfürst got forgotten.
