General Notes: The arrival of Cicco Gatto in Malta belongs to a very important chapt er in the annals of Maltese history, which is very well documented and acc ounted for by many contemporary historians, (such as Profs. Andrew Vella/L -Istorja ta' Malta), all of whom agree to the fact that the Gatt family w as truly the first ever noble family with a hereditary title on the Malte se islands. This also marked the passage of the Maltese territories form t he House of Aragon to a succession of noble families, better known as Feud al Lords. It is also understood that due to the connection with Cicco Gatt o, the Gatt surname owes its origin to the Italian version rather than t he Germanic one, as indicated by The Historical Research Centre.
----------------------------
1st Baron of Djar-il-Bniet (1350)
The 1st Baron of Djar-il-Bniet, Cicco Gatto (died 1372) was governor of t he Castello a Mare (Fort St Angelo) in 1350. He is credited with quelli ng a rebellion on the island of Gozo and inducing the inhabitants to subm it to the House of Aragon. The fief of Djar-il-Bniet fell after the extinc tion of the Bava family during the reign of King Louis of Sicily and was c onferred on Cicco Gatto and his heirs. Louis also granted Gatto’s son Fran cesco Lanza and his heirs exemption from payment of dues to the Royal Cour t, placing them on equal footing with the citizens of Messina. Following L anza's death, his son Francesco succeeded the title on February 14, 139 7, and was invested by Martin I of Sicily. The 2nd Baron was Lanza Gatt o, who was a chief justice of Malta and Regio Proposito. Baron Cicco’s oth er son Francesco Gatto, the 3rd Baron married an heiress of the Baro ny of Buqana in 1387. The Barony of Buqana was given to governor Gugliel mo Murina in 1372 by King Frederick III. Guglielmo's daughter married Manf redo, a member of the noble Sicilian family of de Castelli. Their daught er Paola married Baron Francesco Gatto, and they became the parents of Imp eria, the wife of Antonio Inguanez.
The 3rd Baron Francesco Gatto (d. 1442) received the lordships of Hemsi ja and Zabbar from Martin I of Sicily in 1397 was appointed governor of Ma lta and also Regio Proposito in 1403. He died in 1442 and was succeed ed by his daughter Imperia Gatto who married the Spanish Baron Antonio Ing uanez, a close relative to the royal Aragona family of Sicily. Baron Anton io Inguanez inherited the titles of Baron di Ghariexem, Signor di Saccaj a, Mugiarro and San Giorgio. Antonio and Imperia produced not only descend ants to most Maltese, Sicilian, Roman, Neapolitian Nobility, but also roya lty in Western Europe such as Queen Paola of Belgium, the Orleans-Bourbon s, and Austria-Este.[2]
Prior to settling in Malta the Inguanez had been a powerful noble fami ly in Catalonia, where its members held high offices and possessed the fi ef of Ortigos. Angeraldo Inguanez (d. 1403) accompanied by his son Antoni o, who subsequently became the husband of Imperia Gatto. Angeraldo was gov ernor of Malta and Gozo for three years before handing the governorsh ip to his friend Francesco Gatto on October 16, 1403. Before his death, An geraldo also intrusted Francesco Gatto with the guardianship of his only s on Antonio. The orphan Antonio married his guardian's daughter Imperia Gat to, whose dowry included a house in the town of Notabile, with several fie fs and other properties. Antonio Inguanez accompanied King Alfonso of Sici ly in the siege of Barbary and was appointed despotic governor of Malta a nd Gozo, as successor to his father-in-law Francesco Gatto. Their governor ship became almost hereditary, being mortgaged to him and to his son by Ki ng Alfonso in 1437.
In 1432 King Alfonso visited Malta on his triumphant return from Barbary a nd was the guest of Francesco Gatto and Antonio Inguanez at the family hou se in Mdina (which is still in the possession of their descendants ). As a reward for his services during the war in Barbary, the estate a nd garden of Saccajja near Mdina, was confirmed to Antonio on October 2 5, 1442. The united arms of Gatto and Inguanez were placed over the Fo rt St Angelo by King Alfonso, Francesco Gatto and Antonio Inguanez. Anton io Inguanez was very devout, and founded four benefices which exist toda y. He and Imperia had many children which caused a great division of his p roperties. He died in 1458, after which his son acquired the fiefs of Dj ar il Bniet, Buqana, and Budaq. Antonio’s son Angeraldo Gatto Inguanez w as consigliere regio in 1439 and governor of Malta in 1469. Nothing mo re is know of him except that he married and had a son named Antonio Anger aldo Inguanez, who received his investiture from Palermo in 1472.

General Notes: The Catalans In Greece 1311 – 1380
When night descended on the battlefield of the Cephissus on Monday, Mar ch 15, in the year 1311, the last day of Burgundian greatness in Greece h ad drawn to a dark and tragic close. Never again would a Frankish du ke of Athens disport himself with confident pride and rich panoply in a to urnament in Greece, as had Guy II de la Roche in the famed Corinthian lis ts of a half dozen years before. In the marshes of the Cephissus Walt er of Brienne, last Bur gundian duke of Athens, had perished with, it w as claimed, seven hundred knights, and the Catalan Grand Company now to ok over the duchy of Athens and Thebes, together with the wives of the ma ny Frenchmen they had slain.
The Grand Company had first been organized by Roger de Flor of Brindis i, a turncoat Templar, shortly after the twenty years' war between the hou ses of Anjou and Aragon over possession of the island of Sicily had final ly ended in the treaty of Caltabellotta (August 31, 1302). Members of t he Company had helped maintain the energetic king Frederick II upon the th rone of Sicily (1296 – vénitiens dans l'Archipel (1207 – 1390)," Oriental ia 1337), to the great humiliation of pope Boniface VIII and the Angevi ns in Naples. With the advent of peace they needed employ ment, which th ey found, under Roger's command, in the service of the Byzantine emperor A ndronicus II Palaeologus, who hoped to use their strength against the new ly risen power of the Ottoman Turks in Asia Minor. In September 1303 Rog er de Flor and the chief body of the Company had arrived in Constantinopl e, having sacked the island of Ceos on the way (August 18, 1303). The Tur ks in Asia Minor soon felt the heavy force of their arms and learned of th eir prowess. Roger was ambitious, however, and having married into the imp erial family, he became, as the months passed, an object of not unwarrant ed suspicion in the capital. It was feared that he might prefer the pa rt of a ruler to that of a defender of the empire. At the end of April 13 05 he was murdered by the Palaeologi, but the Catalan Company, which had c ome to include Turks in their ranks, held much of the Gallipoli peninsu la until June 1307; thereafter they moved westward rapidly, ravaging Thra ce and Macedonia; by the end of August 1307 they were at Cassandrea in t he Chalcidic peninsula; in the spring and summer of 1308 we find them mena cing the monks of Mt. Athos; in the spring of 1309 they entered the plai ns of Thessaly, and a year later passed into the employ of duke Walt er I of Athens. They served him for six months against the Greek rule rs of Thessaly and Epirus and against the emperor Andronicus himself; th ey won him lands and castles in southern Thessaly; and when his use for th em was done, he sought to dismiss them, although he still owed them four m onths' wages. He chose from among them two hundred knights and three hundr ed almogàvers; to these he paid what he owed them, gave them lands, and en franchised them; the others he ordered to be gone. But the Company claim ed the right to hold of him, as fiefs, some strongholds which they had tak en in southern Thessaly, and which they refused to give up to him, for th ey had nowhere else to go. The duke of Athens and the Catalan Company spe nt the fall and winter of 1310 – 1311 in preparation for the struggle whi ch should decide who would go and who would stay. The Company was rejoin ed by their five hundred fellows, who preferred the yellow banner with t he red bars to the gold and azure of Brienne. Thus it came about that t he Company, with their Turkish allies, met Walter and his Frankish ar my on the right bank of the river Cephissus, as Muntaner says, On the fie ld of battle the duke of Athens and his knights, assembled from most of t he Latin states in Greece, displayed the reckless courage of their clas s; they made a dashing attack upon the enemy; men and horses charged in to prepared ditches; they piled upon one another; they sank into the bo gs and marshes, covered with a treacherous sward of green; they were sh ot down by arrows, ridden down by horses, cut down by knives. The Franki sh losses were fearful; Walter of Brienne was killed; it was a catastrop he from which there was to be no recovery.
French knights had jousted in the plains of Boeotia and Attica and feast ed in great castles on the Cadmea and the Acropolis for more than a hundr ed years (1204 – 1311). All this had now come to an end. Thebes, the capit al of the Athenian duchy, was immediately occu pied; many of the Latin inh abitants of the duchy sought refuge on the Venetian island of Euboea (Negr oponte). The great castle of St. Omer (on the Cadmea), then famous for i ts frescoes, was taken over by the Company, and other towns and stronghol ds in Boeotia quick ly followed. The Greek natives of the fortress to wn of Livadia admitted the Catalans with a that bespoke no love for the Fr ench, and for this assistance some of them received the rights and privile ges of (Catalans), except that, as schismatics, they were commonly deni ed the right to marry Frankish women. Athens was surrendered to the Catala ns by the now widowed duchess of Athens, Joan of Châtillon, daughter of t he constable of France. Of the Burgundian duchy of Athens and its dependen cies the family of Brienne now possessed only Argos and Nauplia in the Mor ea, which their advocate Walter of Foucherolles held for them. Attica, li ke Boeotia, was now a Catalan possession, and land and vineyards and oli ve groves which had once been the property of Pericles and Herodes Attic us were owned by Catalan soldiers of fortune.
Muntaner has informed us, with much exaggeration, that, of all the seven h undred knights who had ridden with Walter of Brienne into the battle of t he Cephissus in March 1311, only two came out alive, Boniface of Verona, a nd Roger Deslaur, through whose efforts the Catalans had first hired out t heir services to Walter. The few thousand Catalans and Ara gonese who to ok over the duchy of Athens lacked a leader of prestige and rank. They off ered the perilous responsibility of govern ing them to Boniface of Veron a, who felt obliged to reject their offer, whereupon they turned to the ir other important captive, Roger Deslaur. He accepted the proffered pos t, Muntaner relates, and received therewith the castle of Salona () and t he widow of Thomas III of Autremencourt, whose great fief Salona had be en until he lost his life on the banks of the Cephissus. Roger Deslaur see ms to have proved unequal to the task of maintaining the duchy against t he Catalans' Venetian enemies in Negroponte and their Frankish ene mi es in the Morea. The Grand Company therefore turned, with reluctance accor ding to Marino Sanudo Torsello, to king Frederick II of Sicily, who at the ir behest appointed as duke of Athens his second son, the infante Manfre d, who was then only five years of age. The Company's acceptance of Catala n-Sicilian rule was negoti ated by Roger Deslaur early in the year 1312.
An interesting document has survived, containing the articles and conventi ons whereby the as the Company was officially known, recognized the infan te Manfred as their By the common consent and will of the individual membe rs of the Com pany, duly assembled in council for this purpose, the you ng infante and, on his behalf, the king were to exercise all right, domini on, power, and jurisdiction over the members of the Company and their poss essions; allegiance to their new prince was an obligation under taken by t hem in perpetuity, and in accordance with the laws of Aragon and the custo ms of Barcelona. Frederick II, on behalf of his son, undertook to exerci se the dominion, right of governance, and jurisdiction thus granted in str ict accord with these laws and cus toms. The king and his son were to main tain and defend every member of the Company in such status, office, and fi ef as he then held, although they acquired in Attica and Boeotia such feud al rights and perquisites as obtained in the kingdom of Aragon. The lord k ing declared, for himself and for his son, the royal intention to ru le in accordance with these terms. The king then sent Berenguer Estañ ol of Ampurias as the young duke's vicar-general, and when Estañol arriv ed in Piraeus with five galleys to take over his command, Roger Deslaur, w ho had governed the Company for a year (1311 – 1312), retired to his lords hip of Salona and figures no more in the history of the Athenian duchy.
Berenguer proved an able ruler, and under him the Catalans were able to co nsolidate their position in Attica and Boeotia. He protected them again st the hostility of the Venetians in Negroponte, the Greeks in Thessaly a nd Epirus, and the Briennist retainers in Argos and Nauplia in the More a. In 1316 Berenguer died, after prolonged illness and four years of effec tive service, and the Catalans elected a member of the Company, one Willi am de Thomas, as their captain and vice-regent, until the arrival in Athe ns of king Frederick II's natural son, Don Alfonso Fadrique of Aragon, w ho had been ap pointed vicar-general for the infante duke Manfred. On Nove mber 9, 1317, Manfred died in Trapani as a result of a fall from his hors e; his younger brother became duke William [II] of Athens. Appointed, ther efore, as duke Manfred's vicar-general, it was as the vicar of duke Willi am II that Alfonso Fadrique was to hold the chief post in the duchy of Ath ens – and after 1319 in the duchy of Neopatras – for about fourteen yea rs (1317-1330), during which period the Cata lan Company in Greece enjoy ed the height of their power and their security.
The organization of the new Catalan state in Greece illustrates very we ll the medieval theory of a contract between the ruler and his people, exp ressly called a contract (capitula et conventiones) in the first wor ds of the document of 1312. The Company remained legal owner of the lan ds which they had won and now held by right of conquest, but seeking perha ps a more constitutional basis for their authority, and further protecti on in time of need, they had sur rendered to and received back from the Ca talan duke in Sicily their fiefs and offices in the Athenian duchy. The gr and enfeoffment of 1312, however, whereby the duke was obliged to confi rm the dis tribution of lands and offices which the Company had already ef fected among themselves, was largely theoretical, for it was they who gran ted the ducal domain to him rather than he who granted their fiefs to the m. From the time of their early establishment in Greece the Company posses sed written Articles or Statutes (Capitu la), an actual constitution, comp osed in Catalan and largely based upon the Constitutions of Catalonia a nd the Customs of Barcelona. The text of the Statutes of the Company (e ls Capitols de la Corn panyia) has unfortunately not survived, although he re and there a fragment appears in the documents, most notably the artic le prohibi ting landed gifts and testamentary bequests to the church. To i mportant documents the chancellor of the Company affixed the Company's o wn seal, which depicted St. George slaying the dragon. The duke appoint ed the vicar-general, the chief executive of the duchy, who swore feal ty to the duke in Sicily, and upon his arrival in Athens or Thebes to ok an oath before representatives of the Com pany to discharge the duti es of his office properly, in accordance with the Statutes of the Compan y. The duke quickly acquired, however, the right of appointment to the chi ef military post in the Catalan state, that of marshal of the duchy, or af ter 1319, when Don Alfonso Fadrique added the duchy of Neopatras to th at of Athens, marshal of the duchies. But the highest offices in the sta te were reserved, for the most part, for the Catalans themselves, includi ng the office of marshal, which, whether by royal appointment or not, w as apparently held for almost two generations (until 1354?) by the importa nt family of the Novelles.

General Notes: Andronikos III Palaiologos or Andronicus III Palaeologus (Greek: ??d????? ?? G' ?a?a???????) (March 25, 1297 - June 15, 1341) reigned as Byzantine e mperor 1328–1341, after being rival emperor since 1321. Andronikos III w as the son of Michael IX Palaiologos and Princess Rita (renamed Maria ), a daughter of King Leo III of Armenia.
[edit]
Life
Andronikos III was associated as co-emperor alongside his father and grand father by 1313. His dissolute behavior (including gambling debts and roman tic affairs) inadvertently caused the murder of his younger brother Manu el Palaiologos in 1320 and hastened the end of the ailing Michael IX. Th is antagonized his grandfather Andronikos II Palaiologos, who declared And ronikos III deprived of the succession. Andronikos III rebelled with the h elp of his trusted companion John Kantakouzenos (the later Emperor John V I) in 1321, and overcame his grandfather after a civil war that lasted, wi th interruptions, until 1328 and involved the Empire's neighbors, in parti cular the Bulgarians. In 1325 the two Andronikoi were temporarily reconcil ed with each other, but the civil war was renewed shortly afterwards. At t he end Andronikos III was able to enter Constantinople in triumph and forc ed his grandfather to abdicate and retire into a monastery.
Effective administrative authority during the reign of Andronikos III w as wielded by his megas domestikos John Kantakouzenos, while the emperor e njoyed himself hunting or waging war. An alliance with his brother-in-l aw Michael Asen III of Bulgaria against Stefan Uroš III Decanski of Serb ia failed to secure any gains, as the Serbians defeated the Bulgarians bef ore the latter could join with the Byzantines in the battle of Velbažd (Ky ustendil) in 1330. Andronikos III's attempt to make up for this setba ck by annexing Bulgarian Thrace failed in 1331, when he was defeated by t he new Bulgarian emperor Ivan Alexander at Rousokastron. Peace with Bulgar ia was secured through territorial concessions and a diplomatic marriage b etween the children of the two emperors.
The subsequent years witnessed the gradual extinction of Byzantine ru le in Asia Minor, as Orhan of the Ottoman Turks, who had already defeat ed Andronikos III at Pelekanos in 1329, took Nicaea in 1331 and Nicomed ia in 1337. After that, only Philadelpheia and a handful of ports remain ed under Byzantine control in Asia Minor. Earlier Andronikos III had effec ted the recovery of Phocaea and the islands of Lesbos and Chios from Bened etto Zaccaria in 1329, but this did little to stem the Ottoman advan ce in Asia Minor.
Under Stefan Uroš IV Dušan, Serbia expanded into Byzantine territory in Ma cedonia, taking Ohrid, Prilep, Kastoria, Strumica, and Voden in c. 1334. N evertheless, Andronikos III secured the extension of Byzantine control ov er Thessaly in 1333 and Epirus in 1337, by taking advantage of successi on crises in these principalities.
Andronikos III reorganized the Byzantine navy and reformed the judicial sy stem by forming a panel of four universal judges. In retrospect his rei gn may be said to end before the situation of the Byzantine Empire beca me untenable. In spite of several not insignificant reverses at the han ds of Bulgarians, Serbians, and Ottomans, the emperor had provided the emp ire with active leadership, had cooperated with able administrators, and h ad come closer than any of his predecessors in re-establishing Byzantine c ontrol over the Greek peninsula.
Andronikos III died aged 44 in 1341, and was succeeded by his son, Jo hn V Palaiologos.

Andronikos II Palaiologos was the eldest surviving s on of Michael VIII Palaiologos and Theodora Doukaina Vatatzina, grandnie ce of John III Doukas Vatatzes.
[edit]
Life
Andronikos II Palaiologos was acclaimed co-emperor in 1261, after his fath er Michael VIII recovered Constantinople from the Latin Empire, but he w as crowned only in 1272. Sole emperor from 1282, Andronikos II immediate ly repudiated his father's unpopular Church union with the Papacy, but w as unable to resolve the related schism within the Orthodox clergy until 1 310. Andronikos II was also plagued by economic difficulties and during h is reign the value of the Byzantine hyperpyron depreciated precipitously w hile the state treasury accumulated more than seven times less revenue ( in nominal coins) than it had done previously. Seeking to increase reven ue and reduce expenses, Andronikos II raised taxes and reduced tax exempti ons, and dismantled the Byzantine fleet in 1285, thereby making the Empi re increasingly dependent on the rival republics of Venice and Genoa.
Andronikos II Palaiologos sought to resolve some of the problems facing t he Byzantine Empire through diplomacy. After the death of his first wif e, he married Yolanda (renamed Eirene) of Montferrat, putting an end to t he Montferrat claim to the Kingdom of Thessalonica. Andronikos II also att empted to marry off his son and co-emperor Michael IX Palaiologos to the L atin Empress Catherine I of Courtenay, thus seeking to eliminate Western a gitation for a restoration of the Latin Empire. Another marriage allian ce attempted to resolve the potential conflict with Serbia in Macedoni a, as Andronikos II married off his five-year old daughter Simonis to Ki ng Stefan Milutin in 1298.
In spite of the resolution of problems in Europe, Andronikos II was fac ed with the collapse of the Byzantine frontier in Asia Minor. After the fa ilure of the co-emperor Michael IX to stem the Turkish advance in Asia Min or in 1300, the Byzantine government hired the Catalan Company of Almogava rs (adventurous from Aragon and Catalonia) led by Roger de Flor to clear B yzantine Asia Minor from the enemy. In spite of some successes, the Catala ns were unable to secure lasting gains. They quarreled with Michael IX, a nd eventually turned on their Byzantine employers after the murder of Rog er de Flor in 1305, devastating Thrace, Macedonia, and Thessaly on their r oad to Latin Greece. There they conquered the Duchy of Athens and Thebe s. The Turks continued to pentrate the Byzantine possessions, and Prousa f ell in 1326. By the end of Andronikos II's reign, much of Bithynia w as in the hands of the Ottoman Turks of Osman I and his son and heir Orhan .
The Empire's problems were exploited by Theodore Svetoslav of Bulgaria, w ho defeated Michael IX and conquered much of northeastern Thrace in c. 130 5–1307. The conflict ended with yet another dynastic marriage, between Mic hael IX's daughter Theodora and the Bulgarian emperor. The dissolute behav ior of Michael IX's son Andronikos III Palaiologos led to a rift in the fa mily, and after Michael IX's death in 1320, Andronikos II disowned his gra ndson, prompting a civil war that raged, with interruptions, until 1328. T he conflict precipitated Bulgarian involvement, and Michael Asen III of Bu lgaria attempted to capture Andronikos II under the guise of sending him m ilitary support. In 1328 Andronikos III entered Constantinople in trium ph and Andronikos II was forced to abdicate. He died as monk in 1332.

Jan I is said to be a perfect model of a feudal prince in the days of chiv alry: brave, adventurous, excelling in every form of active exercise, fo nd of display, generous in temper. This made him very popular in Middle Ag es poetry and literature. Even today there exists an ode to him, so well-k nown that it was a potential candidate to be the North Brabant anthem. J an delighted in tournaments and was always eager to take part in joust s. He was also famous for his many illegitimate children.
On May 3, 1294 at some marriage festivities at Bar-le-Duc (now France), J an I was mortally wounded in the arm in an encounter. He was buried in t he church of the Minderbroeders in Leuven, but since the Protestant iconoc lasm (Beeldenstorm) in 1566, nothing remains of his tomb.

211812372. Margaritone Da Brindisi .
General Notes: It is recalled how Margarito of Brindisi, an Apulian pirate of Greek orig in from Xante, had become Admiral of Sicily in 1184 under King Willi am II (1166-1189), and had continued to serve under King Tancred (1190-119 4) by whom he was created first Count of Malta sometime in 1192 in rewa rd for his excellent services. Following the death of Tancred in Februa ry 1194 and during the brief interlude of the reign of Tancred’s minor s on William III under the regency of his mother Sibilla, Emperor Henry V I, abetted by his Genoese allies, invaded Sicily, took Palermo and was cro wned at Palermo Cathedral on Christmas Day of that same year 1194.
The first document published by Sciascia and dated 23 November 1194, a fu ll month before King Henry’ s coronation, shows the monarch already confir ming to Guglielmo Grasso, a Genoese, and to his heirs in perpetuity the Co unty of Malta with all its rights while granting them a house in Messina b elonging to the royal curia, known as the funduq-domum nostram Messanne q ue fundicus dicebatur.
The tide of fortune had obviously turned against Margarito who was to e nd his days blinded in a German prison after a revolt in 1197. By 1198 a nd following the death of Henry VI, it was Grasso’s turn to clash with t he monarchy and be declared by Empress Constantia, Queen of Sicily, a nd by her four-year old son Frederick, King of Sicily, inimicum nostru m. In the same breath, it was found convenient at the time that the Malte se islands be promised reintegration within the royal demanium ‘for ever ’. The empty promise was very soon to be forgotten and by 1203 Guglielmo G rasso’s son-in-law Arrigo, nicknamed Pescatore, a pirate turned admir al of Sicily, appears to have somehow inherited the title of Count of Malt a.
After having faithfully served his master for a score of years using Mal ta as the base of his operations, in 1222 Arrigo fell out with the emper or and lost the title of Count of Malta. His services to the emperor, howe ver, were not easily replaced and he was partially reinstated soon afterwa rds retaining the title of Count of Malta but not jurisdiction over the ca strum of Malta.
By May 1232 Arrigo was presumably dead as the title was then being us ed by his son Nicoloso, for instance, when signing a treaty between Gen oa and Arles. It is not clear why the same title was not adopted a deca de later when Nicoloso appears as one of the treasurers of the Commu ne of Genoa in 1243.
Following the death of Frederick II in December 1250 and the successi on to the throne by his son Conrad who, from Germany, left his Sicilian af fairs in the hands of Frederick’s natural son Manfred, it appears that Nic oloso at the head of a Genoese faction in Malta engaged in otherwise undef ined activities that ran counter to Manfred’s interests.
It was only in July 1257 that a peace treaty between Manfred and the Genoe se was signed in Melfi that patched up the situation and Nicoloso w as to be reinvested with the title of Count of Malta but, like his fathe r, not with control of the castrum. Thereafter, and for a long time, Nicol oso retained the title even under the Angevin regime with which he sympath ized.
This much has been known. Sciascia’s next document, the will of Simon Fime tta of Calatafimi and inhabitant of Salemi, dated 5 January 1281, revea ls his connexion with the De Malta and with Count Nicoloso, in particula r. Simon, who is about to travel to Greece, feels more secure to have dra wn up his will before his departure. In it he bequeaths, inter alia, a tho usand gold uncie to Guglielmo de Malta and to his brother Roberto de Malt a, his nephews and sons of his late sister Aloysia from her marriage to t he late Perinus, described as first-born son of Nicoloso Count of Malta:
Tenetur predictis Guillelmo et domino Roberto [de Malta] fratribus nepotib us suis in unciis auri mille promissis ... nobili quondam Perino primogeni to egregii Nicolosi comitis Malte patri ipsorum Guillelmi et Roberti nomi ne dotis pro nobile quondam domina Aloysia sorore sua matre ipsorum Guille lmi et Roberti tempore quo dictus Perinus duxit eamdem dominam Aloysi am in uxorem ...
Aloisia drew up her last will and testament, dated 11 September 1284, whi ch altered drastically her earlier dispositions:
Aloysia Phimecta de Lentini iacens in lecto gravi infirmitate detenta . .. instituit ... heredes suos nobiles viros Guillelmus de Malta et domin um Robbertum de Malta militem fratres nepotes suos super bonis suis pheuda libus et burgensatibus ... videlicet: Casale unum quod dicitur Militellu m, item casale unum quod dicitur Scordia superior, item casale alterum qu od dicitur Flumenfrigidum ..., item casale alterum quod dicitur Bulfi da et tenimentum terrarum quod dicitur MurgumMurgum.
The next document of interest is the will of Guglielmo de Malta who lies d ying in the Gozo castrum on 8 February 1299, which document had been disco vered earlier by Bresc. That this Guglielmo is the same person as the he ir of Aloysia and of Simon Fimetta is confirmed from the fact that he bequ eaths the Casale Burfide (Bulfide),to his wife Clara de Rocka.
It transpires from this will that his uncle is Andreas Comes insularum Mal te et Gaudisii, to whom he bequeaths his bay horse. The title of Cou nt of Malta would normally have been passed on from Nicoloso to his first- born son, Perino, the father of Guglielmo. Perino, however, was already de ad in 1281 when Nicoloso was still alive so that Perino never inherited t he title.
Andreas, Guglielmo’s uncle, would have been Perino’s younger brother who m ust have inherited the title sometime between 1281 and 1290. It is known t hat on 16 June 1290 Charles of Anjou confirmed to the noble Andriolo Com es Malte and to his heirs in perpetuity the county of Malta and other prop erty in Sicily, including very interestingly, domum Guillelmi Crassi qu am habuit in Messana que fundicus dicebatur. If the point need be furth er laboured, the document continues que omnia ex collationibus et confirma tionibus domini Henrici Sexti Imperatoris Romanorum etc.Andreas, being t he grandson of Arrigo Piscator, therefore, had every right to inherit t he funduq in Messina, originally granted to Guglielmo Grasso and to his he irs in perpetuity.
In the immediate aftermath of the Sicilian Vespers, the insurrection of Si cily against the French, and the staking by Aragon of a claim to Sicil y, it was not very clear as to the direction in which the favourable polit ical winds were blowing. Thus Andreas, who in 1290 appears to have retain ed his father’s allegiance to Anjou and was able to retain his title, so on discovered that it was more advantageous to back the opposite side a nd by late October 1292 it was King Jaime of Aragon who had recognized h is title as Count of Malta, making him contribute towards the maintenan ce of the Castrum Maris.
This, naturally, brought about a punitive reaction from Charles of Anjou w ho, on 22 April 1300, stripped him of the title and invested his faithf ul admiral Rogerio de Lauria with it. This state of affairs continued prac tically throughout the whole of the following century with Counts of Mal ta being appointed simultaneously and independently by Aragon and by Anjo u.
To return to the De Malta, in his will of 1299, Guglielmo mentions an on ly daughter named Lukina who was then still unmarried. By 1323 she had mar ried Guglielmo Raimondo Moncada, by whom she had two sons, Guglielmo Raimo ndo (named after his father) and Pericone, as well as a daughter, Clara (n amed after Lukina’s mother). Another document dated November 1338 revea ls that this Clara had by then married a certain Ferrarono de Abela w ho is encountered receiving the dowry promised him by Pericone and his wif e’s parents.
On 4 February 1344 Guglielmo Raimondo Moncada, close to death, makes a don ation of the fief called Lu Murgu, which he must have acquired through h is wife’s dowry, to his elder son Guglielmo Raimondo. On 12 April 1347 Do nna Luckina, now a widow, makes a donation to her other son, Pericone, inc luding, interestingly enough the fiefs of Bulfida and Scordia Soprana a nd much else besides. It is important to note that these other lands in Si cily had been acquired in exchange for the County of Malta as is describ ed in the same donation:
... quas [terras] dicta donatrix una cum dicto quondam magnifico viro s uo habuit a Serenissimo Principe quondam bone memorie domino rege Frederi co olim Sicilie rege ex quadam permutacione olim innita, facta, habi ta et tractata inter dictum regem Fredericum de dictis unciis auri cent um viginti [per universitatem terre Calatagironi racione antique assi se et baiulacionis] et dictam magnificam donatricem per comitatum insular um Meliveti et Gaudisii olim suo cum omnibus villis, terris ... cum quib us ipsa donatrix et antecessores sui hactenus bona donata predicta tenueru nt.
This exchange must have occurred sometime before 1323, as on 18 July of th at year, King Pedro II orders the payment by the vice-secreto of Caltagiro ne of the hundred and twenty uncie on the cabella antiqua assise baiulacio nis, referred to, to Guglielmo Raimondo Moncada and to his wife Luckina.

General Notes: Thomas I or Tommaso I (1178 – March 1, 1233) was Count of Savoy from 11 89 - 1233. He was the son of Humbert III of Savoy and Beatrice of Viennoi s. His birth was seen as miraculous; his monkish father had despaired of h aving a male heir after three wives. Count Humbert sought counsel from S t. Anthelm, who blessed Humbert three times, and it was seen as a prophe cy come true when Thomas was born shortly after Anthelm himself died on Ju ne 26, 1178. He was named in honor of St. Thomas Becket.
Thomas possessed the martial abilities, energy, and brilliance that his fa ther lacked, and Savoy enjoyed a golden age under his leadership. He had t aken over effective rule of Savoy by August 1191, and despite his you th he began the push north-west into new territories. He conquerored Vau d, Bugey, and Carignano. He supported the Hohenstaufens, and was kno wn as "Thomas the Ghibelline" due to his career as Imperial Vicar of Lomba rdy.
In 1195 he ambushed the party of Count William I of Geneva, which was esco rting the count's daughter, Marguerite, to France for her intended weddi ng to King Philip II of France. Thomas carried off Marguerite and marri ed her himself, producing some eight sons and six daughters.

211812434. King Of Castile Alfonso VIII, son of King Sancho III Of Castile and Blanche Of Navarre, was born on 11 Nov 1155 and died on 5 Oct 1214 at age 58. Another name for Alfonso was The Noble.
General Notes: Alfonso VIII (November 11, 1155 – October 5, 1214); called the Noble o r, in Spanish, el Noble; also known as He of Las Navas (El de las Navas ); was the king of Castile and grandson of Alfonso VII. He led the coaliti on of Christian princes and foreign crusaders who broke the power of the A lmohades in the battle of the Navas de Tolosa in 1212.
His early life resembled that of other medieval kings. He succeeded to t he throne as a child on the death of his father, Sancho. Though proclaim ed king, he was regarded as a mere name by the unruly nobles to whom a min ority was convenient. Since his mother was also dead, Alfonso did not ha ve closer relatives than his uncle Ferdinand, king of Leon, who wanted pow er in Castile. The devotion of a squire of his household, who carried h im on the pommel of his saddle to the stronghold of San Esteban de Gorma z, saved him from falling into the hands of the contending factions of Cas tro and Lara, or of his uncle Ferdinand of León, who claimed the regency.
The loyalty of the town of Ávila protected his youth. He was barely fifte en when he came forth to do a man's work by restoring his kingdom to orde r. It was only by a surprise that he recovered his capital Toledo from t he hands of the Laras. His marriage with Eleanor of England (Sp: Leonora ), daughter of Henry II of England and Eleanor of Aquitaine (Aquitaine hav ing old ties with Castile), brought him under the influence of the greate st governing intellect of his time. Alfonso VIII was the founder of the fi rst Spanish university, the studium generale of Palencia, which, howeve r, did not survive him.
During his reign, Castile annexed the province of Logroño.
In 1176, Alfonso married Leonora of England and Aquitaine. They had 12 chi ldren:

211812590. Guy Of Dampierre, son of William II Of Dampierre and Margaret II Of Flanders, was born in 1226 and died on 7 Mar 1304 in Compeigne France at age 78.
General Notes: Guy of Dampierre (Dutch: Gwijde van Dampierre) (c. 1226 – March 7, 1304, C ompiègne) was the count of Flanders during the Battle of the Golden Spu rs in 1302. His coat-of-arms was "Or, a lion rampant sable".
Guy was the second son of William II of Dampierre and Margaret II of Fland ers. The death of his elder brother William in a tournament made him joi nt Count of Flanders with his mother. (She had made William co-ruler of Fl anders 1246 to ensure that it would go to the Dampierre children of her se cond marriage, rather than the Avesnes children of her first.) Guy and h is mother struggled against the Avesnes (led by John I, Count of Hainau t) in the War of the Succession of Flanders and Hainault, but were defeat ed in 1253 at the Battle of Walcheren, and Guy was taken prisoner. By t he mediation of Louis IX of France, he was ransomed in 1256. Some respi te was obtained by the death of John of Hainaut in 1257.
In 1270, Margaret confiscated the property of English merchants in Flander s; this led to a devastating trade war with England, which supplied mo st of the wool for the Flemish weavers. Even after her abdication in 127 8, Guy often found himself in difficulties with the fractious commoners.
In 1288, complaints over taxes led Philip IV of France to tighten his cont rol over Flanders. Tension built between Guy and the king; in 1294, Guy ar ranged a marriage between his daughter Philippa and Edward, Prince of Wale s. However, Philip imprisoned Guy and two of his sons, forced him to ca ll off the marriage, and imprisoned Philippa in Paris until her death in 1 306. Guy was summoned before the king again in 1296, and the principal cit ies of Flanders were taken under royal protection until Guy paid an idemni ty and surrendered his territories, to hold them at the grace of the king.
After these indignities, Guy attempted to revenge himself on Phil ip by an alliance with Edward I of England in 1297, to which Philip respon ded by declaring Flanders annexed to the royal domain. The French under Ro bert II of Artois defeated the Flemings at the Battle of Furnes, and Edwar d's expedition into Flanders was abortive. He made peace with Philip in 12 98 and left Guy to his fate. The French invaded again in 1299 and captur ed both Guy and his son Robert in January 1300.
The Flemish burghers, however, found direct French rule to be more oppress ive than that of the count. After smashing a French army at the Batt le of Courtrai in 1302, Guy was briefly released by the French to try to n egotiate terms. His subjects, however, refused to compromise; and a new Fr ench offensive in 1304 destroyed a Flemish fleet at the Battle of Zierikz ee and fought the Flemings to a draw at the Battle of Mons-en-Pévèle. G uy was returned to prison, where he died.

423624834. Alfonso VII Of Castile, son of Raymond Of Burgundy and Urraca Of Castile, was born on 1 Mar 1104 and died on 21 Aug 1157 at age 53.
General Notes: Alfonso VII of Leon (March 1, 1104/5 – August 21, 1157), nicknamed the Emp eror, became the king of Leon, Galicia and Castile in 1126. He was the s on of Urraca of Castile and Count Raymond of Burgundy.
Alfonso was a dignified and somewhat enigmatic figure. A vague tradition h ad always assigned the title of emperor to the sovereign who held León. Sa ncho the Great considered it the imperiale culmen and minted coins with t he inscription Imperator Totius Hispaniae after being crowned in Leon. Th is sovereign was considered the most direct representative of the Visigo th kings who were themselves the representatives of the Roman empire. B ut though given in charters, and claimed by Alfonso VI of Leon and Alfon so I of Aragon, the title had been little more than a flourish of rhetoric .
In November 1128, he married Berenguela of Barcelona, daughter of Ramon Be renguer III, Count of Barcelona. She died in 1149. Their children were:
Sancho III of Castile (1134-1158)
Ferdinand II of Leon (1137-1188)
Sancha (1137-1179), married Sancho VI of Navarre
Constanza of Castile (1141-1160), married Louis VII of France
In 1152, Alfonso married Richeza of Poland, the daughter of Wladisla us II the Exile of Poland. They had a daughter, Sancha (1155-1208), the wi fe of Alfonso II of Aragon.
By his mistress, an Asturian noblewoman named Guntroda, he had an illegiti mate daughter, Urraca, who married García VI of Navarre.
In Leon, Alfonso VII was crowned "Emperor of All Spain" in 1135 after t he death of Alfonso I. The weakness of Aragon enabled him to make his supe riority effective, although Afonso I of Portugal never recognised him as l iege, thereby affirming the new kingdom's independence. He appears to ha ve striven for the formation of a national unity which Spain had never pos sessed since the fall of the Visigoth kingdom. The elements he had to de al with could not be welded together.
Alfonso was at once a patron of the church and a protector, if not a suppo rter of, the Muslims, who formed a large part of his subjects. His reign e nded in an unsuccessful campaign against the rising power of the Almohade s. Though he was not actually defeated, his death in the pass of Murad el in the Sierra Morena, while on his way back to Toledo, occurred in circ umstances which showed that no man could be what he claimed to be -- "ki ng of the men of the two religions."
Alfonso married Queen Richeza.

423624842. Raynald Of Chatillon, son of Henry Of Chatillon and Unknown.
General Notes: Raynald of Châtillon (also Reynald or Reginald of Chastillon) (c.1125-Ju ly 4, 1187) was a knight who served in the Second Crusade and remain ed in the Holy Land after its defeat. There he ruled as Prince of Antio ch from 1153 to 1160.
Raynald of Chatillon tortures Patriarch Aimery of Antioch (From MS of Will iam of Tyre's Historia and Old French Continuation, painted in Acre, 13 C. Bib. Nat. Française.)He was a younger son of Henry, lord of Châtillo n, from the middle-ranking noble family of Champagne that had produced Eud es of Châtillon, Pope Urban II. Raynald had joined the Second Crusade in 1 147 to seek his fortune. He entered the service of Constance of Antioch, w hose first husband had died in 1149. She married Raynald in secret in 115 3, without consulting her first cousin and liege lord, Baldwin III of Jeru salem. Neither King Baldwin nor Aimery of Limoges, the Latin Patriar ch of Antioch, approved of Constance's choice of a husband of such lower b irth.
In 1156 Raynald claimed that the Byzantine emperor Manuel I Comnenus had r eneged on his promise to pay Raynald a sum of money, and vowed to attack t he island of Cyprus in revenge. When the Latin Patriarch of Antioch refus ed to finance this expedition, Raynald had the Patriarch seized, stripp ed naked, covered in honey, and left to suffer in the burning sun. When t he Patriarch was released, he collapsed in exhaustion and agreed to finan ce Raynald's expedition against Cyprus. Raynald's forces attacked Cypru s, ravaging the island, and raping and pillaging the inhabitants.
The Emperor Manuel I Comnenus raised an army and began a march into Syri a. Faced with a much larger and more powerful force, Raynald was forc ed to grovel, barefoot and shabby, before the emperor's throne for forgive ness. In 1159 Raynald was forced to pay homage to Manuel as punishment f or his attack, promising to accept a Greek Patriarch in Antioch. When Manu el came to Antioch later that year to meet with Baldwin III, King of Jerus alem, Raynald was forced to lead Manuel's horse into the city.
Soon after this, in 1160, Raynald was captured by the Muslims during a plu ndering raid against the Syrian and Armenian peasants of the neighbourho od of Marash. He was confined at Aleppo for the next seventeen years. As t he stepfather of the Empress Maria, he was ransomed by Manuel for the extr aordinary sum of 120,000 gold dinars in 1176. He served as Baldwin IV's en voy to Manuel, and, because his wife Constance had died in 1163, was rewar ded with marriage to another wealthy widow, Stephanie, the widow of both H umphrey III of Toron and Miles of Plancy, and the heiress of the lordsh ip of Oultrejordain, including the castles Kerak and Montreal to the south east of the Dead Sea. These fortresses controlled the trade routes betwe en Egypt and Damascus and gave Raynald access to the Red Sea. He became no torious for his wanton cruelty at Kerak, often having his enemies and host ages flung from the walls of castle to be dashed to pieces on the rocks be low.
In November 1177, at the head of the army of the kingdom, he helped King B aldwin defeat Saladin at the Battle of Montgisard; Saladin narrowly escape d. In 1181 the temptation of the caravans which passed by Kerak proved t oo strong, and, in spite of a truce between Saladin and the king, Rayna ld began to plunder. Saladin demanded reparations from Baldwin IV, but Bal dwin could only reply that he was unable to coerce his unruly vassal. T he result was a new outbreak of war between Saladin and the Latin kingd om in 1182. In the course of the hostilities Raynald launched ships on t he Red Sea, partly for piracy, but partly as a threat against Mecca and Me dina, challenging Islam in its own holy places. His pirates ravaged villag es up and down the Red Sea, before being captured by the army of Al-Ad il I only a few miles from Medina. Although Raynald's pirates were tak en to Cairo and beheaded, Raynald himself escaped to the Moab. Saladin vow ed to behead Raynald himself, and at the end of the year Saladin attack ed Kerak, during the marriage of Raynald's stepson Humphrey IV of Tor on to Isabella of Jerusalem. The siege was raised by Count Raymond I II of Tripoli, and Raynald was quiet until 1186.
That year he allied with Sibylla and Guy of Lusignan against Count Raymon d, and his influence contributed to the recognition of Guy as king of Jeru salem, although Raymond was the better candidate. Later in 1186 Raynald at tacked a caravan in which Saladin's sister was travelling, breaking the tr uce between Saladin and the Crusaders. King Guy chastised Raynald in an at tempt to appease Saladin, but Raynald replied that he was lord of his o wn lands and that he had made no peace with Saladin. Saladin swore that Ra ynald would be executed if he was ever taken prisoner.
In 1187 Saladin invaded the kingdom, defeating the Crusaders at the Batt le of Hattin. The battle left Saladin with many prisoners. Most promine nt among these prisoners were Raynald and King Guy, both of whom Saladin o rdered brought to his tent. The chronicler Imad ad-Din al-Isfahani, who w as present at the scene, relates:
Saladin invited the king [Guy] to sit beside him, and when Arnat [Raynal d] entered in his turn, he seated him next to his king and reminded h im of his misdeeds. 'How many times have you sworn an oath and violated i t? How many times have you signed agreements you have never respected?' Ra ynald answered through a translator: 'Kings have always acted thus. I d id nothing more.' During this time King Guy was gasping with thirst, his h ead dangling as though drunk, his face betraying great fright. Saladin spo ke reassuring words to him, had cold water brought, and offered it to hi m. The king drank, then handed what remained to Raynald, who slaked his th irst in turn. The sultan then said to Guy: 'You did not ask permission bef ore giving him water. I am therefore not obliged to grant him mercy.' Aft er pronouncing these words, the sultan smiled, mounted his horse, and ro de off, leaving the captives in terror. He supervised the return of the tr oops, and then came back to his tent. He ordered Raynald brought there, th en advanced before him, sword in hand, and struck him between the neck a nd the shoulder-blade. When Raynald fell, he cut off his head and dragg ed the body by its feet to the king, who began to tremble. Seeing him th us upset, Saladin said to him in a reassuring tone: 'This man was killed o nly because of his maleficence and perfidy'.
King Guy was spared and was taken to Damascus for a time, then allow ed to go free.
Many of the Crusaders considered Raynald a martyr, although all evidence s hows him to have been a plunderer and a pirate who had little concern f or the welfare of the Kingdom. The successes of the Kingdom were almost si nglehandedly undone by Raynald's recklessness and selfishness.
Raynald and Constance had two daughters: Agnes, who married king Béla I II of Hungary; and Alix, who married Azzo V d'Este.
A largely fictionalized version of Raynald is played by Brendan Glees on in the 2005 movie Kingdom of Heaven.

She became princess of Antioch when she was on ly four-years-old, under the regency of Baldwin II of Jerusalem (1130-113 1) and Fulk of Jerusalem (1131-1136). Her mother Alice did not want the pr incipality to pass to Constance, preferring to rule in her own name. Ali ce attempted to ally with the Muslim atabeg of Mosul, Zengi, offering to m arry Constance to a Muslim prince, but the plan was foiled by Alice's fath er Baldwin, who exiled her from Antioch. In 1135 Alice attempted once aga in to take control of the principality, and sought a husband for Constan ce in Manuel Comnenus, at that time the heir to the Byzantine throne. Fu lk exiled her again and re-established the regency for Constance. In 113 6, while still a child, Constance was married to Raymond of Poitiers, wh om the noble supporters of the regency had secretly summoned from Europ e; Alice was tricked into believing Raymond was going to marry her, and, h umiliated, left Antioch for good when the marriage was performed.

General Notes: Leo II of Armenia, (Armenian: Levon II) known as "The Magnificent" (11 50 – May 5, 1219) was king of the Armenian Kingdom of Cilicia, ruling fr om 1187–1219.
Leo became "Lord of the Mountains" (ruler of Cilician Armenia) in 1187, h is brother Ruben III of Armenia resigning the crown to him shortly befo re his death. He was initially the 'Regent and Tutor' for his nieces, Ali ce and Philippa, but later he set them aside and had himself crowned on Ja nuary 6, 1199.
He married Isabelle of Austria in 1189; she bore him two daughters: Rit a, who died young, and Stephanie, later married John of Brienne. With t he onset of the Third Crusade, he opened negotiations with Frederick Barba rossa to receive the title of King of Armenia, but Frederick's drowni ng at the Saleph River in Cilicia forestalled the plan. This represent ed a significant shift in Armenian policy, which had traditionally look ed towards the Byzantine empire for authority. Leo is also said to have at tended the wedding of Richard the Lionhearted in Cyprus as a groomsm an in 1191.
In 1194, Leo seized the castle of Bagras, on the northern border of the Pr incipality of Antioch, which had been captured by Saladin in 1189. Bohemu nd III of Antioch and the Knights Templar, its original owners, demanded i ts return. Leo lured Bohemund to Bagras under pretense of a parley, captur ed him, and imprisoned him in Sis. Under duress, Bohemund was compell ed to cede the Principality to Leo. Bohemund was subsequently released thr ough the mediation of Henry II of Champagne, but was forced to abandon a ll claims to the suzerainity of Armenia. In addition, the two entered in to a marital alliance in 1195. Bohemond's son Raymond married Alice of Arm enia, the daughter of Ruben III.
Leo continued to appeal to the new Emperor, Henry VI, and to Pope Celesti ne III for a royal title. These efforts were successful, and on Janua ry 6, 1199, he was crowned King of Armenia by the papal legate, Konrad I C ardinal von Wittelsbach, Archbishop of Mainz in the Church of Holy Wisd om at Tarsus. He was nominally an Imperial vassal, but soon abandoned a ny acknowledgement of fealty.
Strife had by now broken out in Antioch; Raymond of Antioch had died in 11 97, leaving a posthumous son, Raymond Rupen, heir to the Principality thro ugh primogeniture. However, Raymond's younger brother Bohemund, already Co unt of Tripoli, vigorously disputed the succession, and ejected his own fa ther from the city in 1199. However, Leo intervened against him and restor ed Bohemund III to the Principality; but on his death in 1201, the young er Bohemund was recognized as Prince of Antioch as Bohemund IV. Leo attemp ted to capture Antioch in 1203 and place Raymond-Roupen on the throne, b ut he was defeated by the Knights Templar, who favored Bohemund.
In 1206, the Catholicos John of Sis accused Queen Isabelle of adultery. L eo divorced her and imprisoned her at Vaghka, where she died in 1207. In 1 210, he married Sybilla of Lusignan, daughter of King Amalric II of Jerusa lem, who bore him a daughter, Isabella or Zabel. In Leo's later years he s uffered from deformed hands and feet, probably a symptom of gout.
Leo continued to support the claims of Raymond-Roupen, who had married Hel vis, another daughter of Amalric II, in 1210, and had him crowned "King Ju nior" of Armenia on August 15, 1211. However, Bohemund's allies, includi ng the Knights Templar, and the Ayyubid emir of Aleppo Az-Zahir always for estalled attempts to eject Bohemund from the citadel of Antioch, althou gh Leo several times entered the city. In 1216, with the aid of the Knigh ts Hospitaller, Leo was finally able to capture Antioch and install Raymon d-Roupen as prince. Having established Raymond-Roupen with Antioch, Leo de cided that his daughter Isabella, rather than Raymond-Roupen, should succe ed him in Armenia. On his death on May 2, 1219 Isabella became queen, b ut Raymond-Roupen was ejected from Antioch and came to contest the crown.
Leo was a powerful ruler, remembered by chroniclers as "Leo the Magnificen t". His court at Sis was cultured and he was a supporter of calligraphy a nd the arts. He allied himself with the Knights Hospitaller and the Teuton ic Knights, but drove the Knights Templar from his kingdom. He fostered co mmerce with Venice and Genoa, opening his ports at Ayas and Corycos to t he world. The Assizes of Antioch were adopted as the law of the kingdom, a nd translated into Armenian. Also he captured Herakleia (Now Eregli or Kon ya Ereglisi) and Larende (Now Karaman) from Anatolian Seljuks in 1211 a nd held this cities for 5 years.

She alleg ed that the marriage was invalid, and without much inspection of the fac ts of the case Pope Innocent III condemned the marriage, though he did n ot formally annul it.
Bourchard and Margaret continued as a married couple, having two childre n, as their conflict with Jeanne grew violent and Bouchard was captured a nd imprisoned in 1219. He was released in 1221 on the condition that the c ouple separate and that Bouchard get absolution from the pope. While he w as in Rome, Jeanne convinced Margaret to re-marry, this time to Willi am II of Dampierre, a nobleman from Champagne. From this marriage Margar et had a son: Guy of Dampierre.
This situation caused something of a scandal, for the marriage was possib ly bigamous, and violated the church's strictures on consanguinity as wel l. The disputes regarding the validity of the 2 marriages and the legitima cy of her children by each husband continued for decades, becoming entangl ed in the politics of the Holy Roman Empire and resulting in the long W ar of the Succession of Flanders and Hainault.
In 1246 king Louis IX of France, acting as an arbitrator, gave the rig ht to inherit Flanders to the Dampierre children, and the rights to Haina ut to the Avesnes children. This would seem to have settled the matter, b ut in 1253 problems arose again. The eldest son, John d'Avesnes was unea sy about his rights, convinced William of Holland, the German king recogni zed by the pro-papal forces, to seize Hainaut and the parts of Flanders wh ich were within the bounds of the empire. William of Holland was theoretic ally, as king, overlord for these territories, and also John's brother-in- law. A civil war followed, which ended when the Avesnes forces defeated a nd imprisoned the Dampierres at the Battle of Walcheren.

847249434. Count Rudolph Of Rheinfelden, son of Count Kuno Of Rheinfelden and Richilda Of Oeningen, died in 1080.
General Notes: Rudolph of Rheinfelden (in German, Rudolf von Rheinfeld, and in Italian Ro dolfo di Svevia), died October 15, 1080, was Duke of Swabia (1057–1079) a nd German antiking (1077–1080). He was the son of Count Kuno of Rheinfelde n.
In 1057 Rudolf took advantage of the minority of German King Henry IV by k idnapping Matilda, the king's half-sister. Rudolf demanded, and receive d, Matilda's hand in marriage (1059), as well as the Duchy of Swabia and a dministration of the Kingdom of Burgundy. In 1060 Matilda died, and Rudo lf remarried in 1066 to Adelheid, daughter of Otto of Savoy.
Rudolf, who was a brother-in-law to Henry, at first supported the king's c ampaigns. He helped him in Thuringia and Saxony and was a primary for ce in the First Battle of Langensalza against the rebels. However, when t he Investiture Controversy broke out and Henry was excommunicated, Rudo lf met with several other nobles to decide on a course of action. Despi te the lifting of the excommunication in 1077, the revolters continued wi th their plans. At Forchheim, Rudolf was elected antiking in March. He pro mised to respect the electoral concept of the monarchy, and declared his w illingness to be subservient to the pope.
In May Rudolf was crowned at Mainz, but the people of the city revolted a nd he was forced to flee to Saxony. This presented a problem, since Saxo ny was cut off from his duchy of Swabia by the king's lands. He then ga ve Swabia to his son Berthold and attempted to rectify this situation by b esieging Würzburg, but to little effect. Meanwhile, he was deprived of Swa bia by the Diet at Ulm in May, and Henry gave the duchy to Frederick of Bü ren, the first Hohenstaufen ruler.
The following year, the battle of Mellrichstadt (August 7), proved indecis ive. Rudolf found difficulties in convincing the Saxons to fight beyond th eir borders; they viewed Rudolf as a southerner and distrusted him. He w as also frustrated by the apparent reluctance by the pope in recognizing h is cause. In order to gain and maintain supporters, he was forced to gra nt large parts of the crown lands, as well as those of the church. Neverth eless, things seemed to be improving in 1080. The battle of Flarchheim (Ja nuary 27, 1080) went well in his favor. On March 7, the pope finally excom municated Henry again and recognized Rudolf as king.
Emboldened, his forces met Henry's at the Elster River. The battle, whi ch took place on October 15, would have been a huge victory for the anti-r oyalists. However, in the battle Rudolf lost his right hand and was wound ed in the abdomen. Withdrawing to nearby Merseburg, he there died. The ant i-royalist cause soon deteriorated, with no one able to replace Rudolf.

847249540. Arnulf Of Bavaria, son of Luitpold Of Bavaria and Kunigunda Of Swabia, was born in 886 in Nordgau, Swabia, Bavaria, Germany and died on 14 Jul 937 in Regensburg, Germany at age 51. Another name for Arnulf was The Bad.
General Notes: Son of Luitpold of the Agilulfing family and of Kunigunde, and Duke of Bav aria from 907 to 937. His reign fell in a troubled time. The Magyars had b egun their predatory incursions into Germany, in which they destroyed ever ything, wherever they penetrated. When, in the year 907, they again advanc ed against Bavaria in larger numbers than ever, the Margrave Luitpold summ oned the entire fighting force of his people for the defence of the countr y. The Bavarians, however, were completely defeated, 5 July, 907, in a bat tle in which Luitpold himself, nearly all the Bavarian nobles, and a numb er of bishops, were killed. The land then became an easy prey to the barba rians and was ruthlessly devastated. Ludwig, King of the East Franks, with drew to the western division of the empire. Under these almost hopeless co nditions Arnulf, the son of Luitpold, began his reign. He did not lose cou rage, however, and succeeded, 11 August, 909, in defeating the Magya rs on the Rott as they were returning from Swabia. The defeat did not prev ent the Magyars from undertaking new plundering expeditions in the years d irectly following. But the terrible foe was defeated in a battle on the I nn not far from Passau, in the year 913, by a combined army of the Bavaria ns under Arnulf and of the Swabians under Erchanger and Berchtold, who we re the brothers of Arnulf's mother Kunigunde. On account of a quarrel whi ch broke out between King Conrad and the Swabian dukes, Arnulf took up ar ms against the king in favor of his uncles. The marriage of Conrad with Ku nigunde, the mother of Arnulf and sister of the Swabian dukes, did not all ay the enmity. Arnulf was obliged to flee the country, but after a Swabi an victory over the followers of the king he returned to Bavaria and estab lished himself at Salzburg and Regensburg (Ratisbon). Conrad advanced in 9 16 against his stepson once more and defeated him, but was not able to dri ve him entirely out of the country. In order to put an end to this disorde r, the German bishops held a synod in 916 at Hohenaltheim near Nördlinge n. The synod threatened Arnulf with excommunication in case he did not pre sent himself by 7 October before a synod at Regensburg. Arnulf, however, c ontinued his struggle against Conrad. He was eventually induced to subm it by Conrad's successor, Henry I, but only after he was accorded the rig ht of independent government in Bavaria, the right of coinage, and the rig ht of appointment to the bishoprics. The agreement was made in 921, befo re Regensburg. After receiving these concessions, Arnulf acknowledged t he German king as his over-lord. Otherwise, he was an independent rul er in his own land and called himself in his official documents "Duke of t he Bavarians by the grace of God". During his struggle for the independen ce of Bavaria, Arnulf had confiscated many monastic estates and propertie s, and had granted these lands as fiefs to his nobles and soldiers. Many c hurches, already grievously affected by the predatory incursions of the Ma gyars, were in this way completely impoverished and, it appears, in some c ases destroyed. Only one abbot, Egilolf of Niederaltaich, attended the Syn od of Regensburg in 932. The great monasteries of Benediktbeuern, Isen, Mo osburg, Niedeeraltaich, Schaftlarn, Schliersee, Tegernsee, and Wessobrun n, had lost almost all they possessed through Arnulf's confiscations, whi ch were at times countenanced by some of the German bishops. Drakolf, Bish op of Freising, encouraged by the example of the duke, appropriated some p ossessions of the churches of Schaftlarn, Moosburg, and Isen. On accou nt of his confiscations Arnulf was nicknamed der Schlimme (the Bad). Condi tions were, however, decidedly better after the duke's submission to Ki ng Henry. The Bavarian bishops met in synod at Regensburg, 14 January, 93 2, and in the summer of the same year they held a synod in connection wi th other territorial nobles at Dingolfing. An agreement was reached that t he lands wrested from the monasteries and other religious houses shou ld be returned to them. Arnulf himself showed zeal in rebuilding the churc hes that had been destroyed. Although the decisions of the synod were nev er fully carried out, the way was prepared for better conditions and mo re orderly rule. Arnulf died 14 July, 937, and was buried in the chur ch of St. Emmeram in Regensburg.

General Notes: Gerard (c.1030 – April 14, 1070) was the count of Metz and Chatenois fr om 1047, when his brother Duke Adalbert resigned them to him on becoming t he duke of Lorraine. On Adalbert's death the next year, Gerard became du ke and was so until his death. In contemporary documents, he is called Ger ard of Alsace (after his familial homeland), Gerard of Chatenoy (aft er an ancestral castle near Neufchâteau), or Gerard of Flanders (after h is wife's homeland). His name is spelled Gérard in French and Gerhard in G erman.
He was the second son of Gerard de Bouzonville, count of Metz, and Gisel a, possible a daughter of Thierry I, Duke of Upper Lorraine. Henry III, Ho ly Roman Emperor, invested Adalbert with Lorraine in 1047 after confiscati ng it from Godfrey III. Godfrey did not back down, however, and killed Ada lbert in battle. Henry subsequently bestowed it on Gerard, but the depos ed duke continued to stir. Godfrey had the support of a faction of the nob lesse who did not want a strong hand at the ducal helm and Gerard was impr isoned. Gerard, however, had the support of the chiefest of his bishops, t hat of Toul, Bruno of Eguisheim-Dagsburg (later the sainted Pope Leo IX ), who procured his liberation in 1049. The emperor gave him troops to ass ist him in his fight, for the rebels had the support of some elements in t he church. Gerard himself remained, as his brother had, faithful to the e nd to the imperial dynasty and his descendants would remain so as well ev en into the Hohenstaufen years.
His alliance with the church was regular but inconstant and he founded t he abbeys of Moyenmoutier, Saint-Mihiel, and Remiremont. The former was t he abbey of Cardinal Humbert of Silva Candida, who excommunicated the patr iarch of Constantinople, Michael I Cerularius, in 1054, thus precipitati ng the Great Schism, and the latter was his own final resting place.
On 18 June 1053, Gerard and Prince Rudolf of Benevento led papal and Swabi an troops into battle on behalf of Pope Leo. This was the Battle of Civita te and it was a disastrous loss for the pope. His enemy, the Normans, und er Humphrey of Hauteville and Richard of Aversa, defeated his allies and c aptured his person, taking him prisoner in Benevento. Gerard, however, ret urned to Lorraine.
Among his other construction projects, was that of the castle of Prén y, in the centre of the duchy, the beginnings of the capital city, Nanc y. He died at Remiremont while trying to kill a revolt. Poisoning was susp ected. The date of his death is either 14 April or 11 August.

The Lusignan family was noted for its many Crusaders. Amalric and Guy we re sons of Hugh VIII of Lusignan, who had himself campaigned in the Holy L and in the 1160s. After being expelled from Poitou by their overlord, Rich ard the Lion-hearted, for the murder of Patrick of Salisbury, 1st Ea rl of Salisbury, Amalric arrived in Palestine c. 1174, Guy possibly late r. Amalric married Eschiva, daughter of Baldwin of Ibelin. He then took se rvice with Agnes of Courtenay, wife of Reginald of Sidon and mother of Bal dwin IV of Jerusalem. The pro-Ibelin Chronicle of Ernoul later claimed th at he was her lover, but it is likely that she and Baldwin IV were attempt ing to separate him from the political influence of his wife's famil y. He was appointed constable of Jerusalem in 1179. Guy married the king 's widowed older sister, Sibylla of Jerusalem in 1180, and so gained a cla im to the kingdom of Jerusalem.
Amalric was among those captured with his brother after the disastrous Bat tle of Hattin in 1187. In 1194, on the death of Guy, he became King of Cyp rus as Amalric I. By his first wife, Eschiva of Ibelin, he was the fath er of Hugh I of Cyprus.

In 1198 he was able to procure a five years' truce with the Muslims, owi ng to the struggle between Saladin's brothers and his sons for the inherit ance of his territories. The truce was disturbed by raids on both sides, b ut in 1204 it was renewed for six years.
Amalric died of dysentery (allegedly brought on by "a surfeit of white mul let") in 1205, just after his son Amalric and just before his wife.

After the death of her fourth husband in Jan 1205, Queen Isab elle assumed personal authority over the government of Jerusalem[173].
m firstly (castle of Kerak Nov 1183, annulled 1190[174]) HONFROY IV of Tor on, son of HONFROY III of Toron & his wife Stephaine de Milly heiress of O ultrejourdain (-after 1190). William of Tyre names him and his father wh en recording his marriage[175]. While Raymond Count of Tripoli was promot ing his wife's candidacy to succeed as Queen in 1186, he submitted to Que en Sibylle and put an end to the plan[176]. He was captured by Saladin wh en he took Jerusalem 2 Oct 1187, freed by his mother who promised to surre nder the castles of Kerak and Montreal but as neither garrisons would ob ey her order, she returned him to captivity, from which he was releas ed a few months later[177]. After the annulment of his marriage, Isabel le restored to him the fief of Toron[178].
m secondly (Acre 24 Nov 1190) as his third wife, CORRADO di Monferrato, s on of GUGLIELMO V "il Vecchio" Marchese di Monferrato & Judith of Austr ia [Babenberg] ([1145/47]-murdered Tyre 28 Apr 1192). He arrived in Const antinople in [1186] and offered his help to Isaakios II Emperor of Byzanti um, whose sister he married[179]. He was awarded the title caesar in 118 7. He was involved in a murder at Constantinople, and sailed away secretl y, landing at Tyre 14 Jul 1187. He took command of the defence of the ci ty against Saladin, who was unable to capture it[180]. He sent Josias Arc hbishop of Tyre to the Pope in late summer 1187 to inform him of the plig ht of the Kingdom of Jerusalem[181]. He refused to surrender Tyre to G uy de Lusignan King of Jerusalem in 1188 and 1189, but was persuaded by Lu dwig III "der Milde" Lgf von Thüringen to join in King Guy's attack on Acr e[182]. During the early part of the siege, he and King Guy settled the ir differences with Corrado agreeing to recognise Guy as King while Corra do would continue to hold Tyre, together with Beirut and Sidon[183]. Aft er the death of Queen Sibylle in 1190, Balian of Ibelin and his wife Que en Maria (mother of Isabelle of Jerusalem) considered Corrado a better can didate for the throne of Jerusalem than King Guy I. They therefore engine ered his marriage to Isabelle, now heir to the throne, despite the fact th at his previous two wives may still both have been alive at the time[184 ]. After his marriage, Corrado returned to Tyre, refusing to assume the t hrone of Jerusalem unless King Guy abdicated[185]. After the capitulati on of Acre 12 Jul 1191, a meeting of the European dignitaries which decid ed that Guy de Lusignan should remain as King of Jerusalem until his deat h, after which the crown would pass to Corrado, his wife Isabelle and the ir issue. Meanwhile Corrado would be lord of Tyre, Beirut and Sidon, a nd he and King Guy would share the royal revenues[186]. He succeeded h is father in 1191 as CORRADO Marchese di Monferrato. After further quarre ls between the crusader leaders, a council called by Richard King of Engla nd in Apr 1192 decided that Corrado should replace Guy as King of Jerusale m. His coronation was planned at Acre, but a few days later he was murder ed at Tyre, apparently by two Assassins hired by Sheikh Sinan in revenge f or an act of piracy against one of his merchant ships[187].
m thirdly (Acre 5 May 1192) HENRI II Comte de Champagne, son of HENRI I " le Libéral" Comte de Champagne & his wife Marie de France (29 Jul 1166-Ac re 10 Sep 1197). After the murder of Corrado di Monferrato, Comte Henri h urried to Tyre, was acclaimed as the suitable candidate to marry Corrado 's widow, and within two days his betrothal was announced[188]. He succee ded in 1192 as HENRI King of Jerusalem, by right of his wife, but was nev er crowned king[189]. The Chronicle of Alberic de Trois-Fontaines names " Isabella" as wife of "comes Campaniensis Henricus…comes et princeps…in Acr a"[190]. Together with Richard I King of England, King Henri signed a fi ve year peace treaty with Saladin 2 Sep 1192, under which the coastal tow ns as far south as Jaffa were given to the Christians who were also giv en the right to visit the holy places in Jerusalem[191]. He appointed Je an of Ibelin as Constable of Jerusalem in 1194, considering that Amau ry de Lusignan had forfeited the post after his arrest following his suppo rt of the Pisan revolt in Tyre[192]. Following the succession of Amau ry de Lusignan as Lord of Cyprus in 1194, the two parties planned an allia nce, sealed by the betrothal of Amaury's three young sons to King Henri 's three young daughters[193]. King Henri died after accidentally falli ng through a window in his palace[194].
m fourthly (Acre Jan 1198) as his second wife, AMAURY I King of Cyprus, s on of HUGUES VIII "le Brun" Sire de Lusignan & his wife Bourgogne de Ranç on ([1145]-Acre 1 Apr 1205). On the death of Isabelle of Jerusalem's thi rd husband, King Amaury was proposed as the best candidate by the German l eaders, headed by Konrad von Wittelsbach Archbishop of Mainz, who arriv ed from Cyprus 20 Sep 1197. He arrived at Acre in Jan 1198, married and w as crowned with his wife a few days later as AMAURY II King of Jerusale m. King Amaury immediately made it clear that his two kingdoms would be a dministered separately[195]. After the collapse of the German crusa de in early 1198, King Amaury opened negotiations with al-Adil (Saladin 's brother) although the six year peace treaty was not signed until Sep 12 04, under which Beirut, Sidon, Jaffa and Ramleh were transferred to the ki ngdom of Jerusalem[196]. On the death of King Amaury in 1205, the two kin gdoms were separated once more.
Isabelle married Amalric I Of Cyprus.

Biography
Philip was the fifth and youngest son of the emperor Frederick I and Beatr ix, daughter of Renaud III, count of Burgundy, and consequently broth er of the emperor Henry VI. He entered the clergy, was made provost of Aix -la-Chapelle, and in 1190 or 1191 was chosen bishop of Würzburg. Having ac companied his brother Henry to Italy in 1191, Philip forsook his ecclesias tical calling, and, travelling again to Italy, was made duke of Tusca ny in 1195 and received an extensive grant of lands. In 1196 he became du ke of Swabia, on the death of his brother Conrad; and in May 1197 he marri ed Irene Angelina, daughter of the Byzantine emperor, Isaac II, and wid ow of Roger III, Titular King of Sicily, a lady who is described by Walth er von der Vogelweide as " the rose without a thorn, the dove without guil e."
Philip enjoyed his brother's confidence to a very great extent, and appea rs to have been designated as guardian of the young Frederick, afterwar ds the emperor Frederick II, in case of his father's early death. In 11 97 he had set out to fetch Frederick from Sicily for his coronation wh en he heard of the emperor's death and returned at once to Germany. He app ears to have desired to protect the interests of his nephew and to quell t he disorder which arose on Henry's death, but events were too strong for h im. The hostility to the kingship of a child was growing, and after Phil ip had been chosen as defender of the empire during Frederick's minori ty he consented to his own election. He was elected German king at Mühlhau sen on March 8, 1198, and crowned at Mainz on the September 8 following.
Meanwhile a number of princes hostile to Philip, under the leadership of A dolph, Archbishop of Cologne, had elected an anti-king in the person of Ot to, second son of Henry the Lion, duke of Saxony. In the war that followe d, Philip, who drew his principal support from south Germany, met with con siderable success. In 1199 he received further accessions to his party a nd carried the war into his opponent's territory, although unable to obta in the support of Pope Innocent III, and only feebly assisted by his al ly Philip Augustus, king of France. The following year was less favourab le to his arms; and in March 1201 Innocent took the decisive step of placi ng Philip and his associates under the ban, and began to work energetical ly in favour of Otto.
Also in 1201, Philip was visited by his cousin Boniface of Montferrat, t he leader of the Fourth Crusade. The Crusaders were by this time under Ven etian control and were besieging Zara on the Adriatic Sea. Although Bonifa ce's exact reasons for meeting with Philip are unknown, while at Philip 's court he also met Alexius Angelus, Philip's brother-in-law. Alexius con vinced Boniface, and later the Venetians, to divert the Crusade to Constan tinople and restore Isaac II to the throne, as he had recently been depos ed by Alexius III, Alexius and Irene's uncle.
The two succeeding years were still more unfavourable to Philip. Otto, aid ed by Ottokar I, king of Bohemia, and Hermann I, landgrave of Thuringia, d rove him from north Germany, thus compelling him to seek by abject concess ions, but without success, reconciliation with Innocent. The submissi on to Philip of Hermann of Thuringia in 1204 marks the turning-point of h is fortunes, and he was soon joined by Adolph of Cologne and Henry I, Du ke of Brabant.
On January 6, 1205 he was crowned again with great ceremony by Adolph at A ix-la-Chapelle, though it was not till 1207 that his entry into Cologne pr actically brought the war to a close. A month or two later Philip was loos ed from the papal ban, and in March 1208 it seems probable that a treaty w as concluded by which a nephew of the pope was to marry one of Philip's da ughters and to receive the disputed dukedom of Tuscany. Philip was prepari ng to crush the last flicker of the rebellion in Brunswick-Lüneburg wh en he was murdered at Bamberg, on June 21, 1208, by Otto of Wittelsbach, c ount palatine in Bavaria, to whom he had refused the hand of one of his da ughters. Philip was a brave and handsome man, and contemporary writers, am ong whom was Walther von der Vogelweide, praise his mildness and generosit y.

Early life
Baldwin was the son of Baldwin V of Hainaut, and Margaret I, sister of Phi lip of Alsace and Countess of Flanders. When Philip died childless in 119 1, he was succeeded in Flanders by Baldwin V, who ruled as Baldwin VI II of Flanders by right of marriage.
In 1186, the younger Baldwin married Marie of Champagne, daughter of cou nt Henry I of Champagne. The chronicler Gislebert describes Baldwin as bei ng infatuated with his young bride, who nevertheless preferred prayer to t he marital bed. Gislebert claims Baldwin was "tied only to one woman", h is wife.
Through Marie, Baldwin had additional connections and obligations to the d efenders of the Holy Land: Her brother Henry II of Champagne had been Ki ng of Jerusalem in the 1190s (leaving a widow and two daughters who need ed help to keep and regain their territories in Palestine). Marie's uncl es Richard I of England and Philip II of France had just been on the Thi rd Crusade.
Baldwin's own family had also been involved in defence of Jerusalem: his u ncle Philip had died on Crusade. Baldwin's mother's mother was great-au nt of Isabella, Queen of Jerusalem and the Counts of Flanders had tri ed to help Jerusalem relatives in their struggle. Baldwin wanted to contin ue the tradition.
Margaret died in 1194, and the younger Baldwin became Count of Flanders. H is father died the next year, and he succeeded to Hainaut.
[edit]
Count of Flanders and Hainaut
Baldwin took possession of a much-reduced Flanders, for his uncle had giv en a large chunk, including Artois, as dowry to Baldwin's sister Isabel le of Hainaut on her marriage to King Philip II of France, and another sig nificant piece to his own wife. Isabelle had died in 1190, but King Phil ip still retained her dowry, on behalf of Isabella's son, the future Lou is VIII of France. The eight years of Baldwin's rule in Flanders were domi nated by his attempts to recover some of this land, culminating in Janua ry 1200 in the Treaty of Péronne, in which Philip returned most of Artois.
In this fight against the French king, Baldwin allied with others who h ad quarrels with Philip, including kings Richard I and John of England, a nd the German King Otto IV.
A month after the treaty, on February 23, 1200, Baldwin took the cro ss -- that is, he committed to embark on a crusade. He spent the next t wo years preparing, finally leaving on April 14, 1202.
As part of his effort to leave his domains in good order, Baldwin issued t wo notable charters for Hainaut. One detailed an extensive criminal cod e, and appears to be based on a now-lost charter of his father. The oth er laid down specific rules for inheritance. These are an important pa rt of the legal tradition in Belgium.
Baldwin left behind his two-year-old daughter and his pregnant wife, Count ess Marie. By early 1204, she had left both her children behind to join h im in the East. They expected to return in a couple of years, but in the e nd neither would see their children or their homeland again.
Marie was regent for Baldwin for the two years she remained in Flanders a nd Hainaut. Afterward, Baldwin's younger brother Philip of Namur was rege nt and also had custody of the daughters. Baldwin's uncle William of Thy ( an illegitimate son of Baldwin IV of Hainaut) was regent for Hainaut.
Meanwhile, the crusade had been diverted to Constantinople, where the crus aders had captured and sacked the city, and decided to set up a Latin empi re in place of the fallen Greek one.
[edit]
Latin Emperor
The imperial crown was offered to, and refused by, Enrico Dandolo, Do ge of Venice. The choice then lay between Baldwin and Boniface of Montferr at. Baldwin was elected on May 9, 1204, and crowned on May 16. He was youn g, gallant, pious, and virtuous, one of the few who interpreted and observ ed his crusading vows strictly; the most popular leader in the host.
Baldwin's wife Marie, unaware of these events, had sailed to Acre. There s he learned of her husband's election as emperor, but died of the plag ue in August 1204 before she could join him.
The Latin Empire was organized on feudal principles; the emperor was feud al superior of the princes who received portions of the conquered territor y. His own special portion consisted of the city of Constantinople, the ad jacent regions both on the European and the Asiatic side, along with so me outlying districts, and several islands including Lemnos, Lesbos, Chi os and Tenos. The territories still had to be conquered; and first of a ll it was necessary to break the resistance of the Greeks in Thrace and se cure Thessalonica. In this enterprise in the summer of 1204, Baldwin ca me into collision with Boniface of Montferrat, the rival candidate for t he empire, who was to receive a large territory in Macedonia with the tit le of King of Salonica. He hoped to make himself quite independent of t he empire, to do no homage for his kingdom, and he opposed Baldwin's propo sal to march to Thessalonica. The antagonism between Flemings and Lombar ds aggravated the quarrel. Baldwin insisted on going to Thessalonica; Boni face laid siege to Adrianople, where Baldwin had established a governor; c ivil war seemed inevitable. An agreement was effected by the efforts of Da ndolo and the count of Blois. Boniface received Thessalonica as a fief fr om the emperor, and was appointed commander of the forces which were to ma rch to the conquest of Greece.
During the following winter (1204–1205) the Franks prosecuted conques ts in Bithynia, in which Henry, Baldwin's brother, took part. But in Febru ary the Greeks revolted in Thrace, relying on the assistance of John (Kalo yan), tsar of Bulgaria, whose overtures of alliance had been rejected by t he emperor. The garrison of Adrianople was expelled. Baldwin along with Da ndolo, the count of Blois, and Marshal Villehardouin, the historian, march ed to besiege that city. The Frankish knights were defeated (April 14, 120 5); the count of Blois was slain, and the emperor captured (see Batt le of Adrianople).
For some time his fate was uncertain, and in the meanwhile Henry, his brot her, assumed the regency. Not till the middle of July was it definitely as certained that he was dead. It seems that he was at first treated we ll as a valuable hostage, but was sacrificed by the Bulgarian monar ch in a sudden outburst of rage, perhaps in consequence of the revolt of P hilippopolis, which passed into the hands of the Franks. According to a Bu lgarian legend, Baldwin tried to seduce Kaloyan's wife. Tsar Kaloyan wro te to Pope Innocent III, reporting that Baldwin had died in prison. A tow er of the Tsarevets fortress of the medieval Bulgarian capital, Veliko Tar novo, is still called "Baldwin's Tower".
[edit]
Children and Successors
It was not until July 1206 that the Latins in Constantinople had reliab le information that Baldwin was dead. His brother Henry was crowned emper or in August.
Back in Flanders, however, there seemed to be doubt whether Baldwin was tr uly dead. In any case, Baldwin's other brother Philip of Namur remain ed as regent, and eventually both of Baldwin's daughters Jeanne and Margar et were to rule as countesses of Flanders.
[edit]
The False Baldwin
Twenty years later, in 1225, a man appeared in Flanders claiming to be t he presumed dead Baldwin. His claim soon became entangled in a series of r ebellions and revolts in Flanders against the rule of Baldwin's daughter J eanne.
