Timeline of the Latin Empire

The timeline of the Latin Empire is a chronological list of events of the history of the Latin Empire—the crusader state that developed on the ruins of the Byzantine Empire after the Fourth Crusade in the 13th century.

Background edit

Towards the Fourth Crusade edit

1054

1071

1071–1081

  • The Seljuks seize large parts of Anatolia, taking advantage of Byzantine civil wars.[5]

1073–1074

  • Roussel de Bailleul, a Norman mercenary previously in Byzantine service, rules western Anatolia. The Byzantines could terminate his rule only with Seljuk support.[6][7]

1080

1082

  • 21 February. Robert Guiscard occupies the Byzantine town of Dyrrachium, or Durazzo, on the eastern coast of the Adriatic Sea. He continues his military campaign towards Constantinople along the Via Egnatia.[9][4]
  • May. The Byzantine Emperor Alexios I Komnenos grants privileges to the Venetian merchants, including their exemption from specified taxes, in return for Venetian naval support against the Normans.[9][10]

1083–1084

  • The Venetians and the Byzantines force the Normans to abandon the Byzantine Empire.[9][11]

1090s

1095

1096–1097

  • Winter. Tens of thousands of crusaders march across the Byzantine Empire towards the Holy Land. Their conflicts with the Byzantines occasionally end with skirmishes. All crusader leaders, but Raymond IV, Count of Toulouse, swear fealty to Alexios I, promising to return to the Byzantines all lands that the Seljuks conquered from the Byzantines.[17][18]

1097

1098

  • 3 June. The crusaders capture Antioch, a city that the Seljuks seized from the Byzantines in 1083.[20]
  • November. The crusader leaders acknowledge the right of Robert Guiscard's son, Bohemond, to rule Antioch, ignoring their oath to Emperor Alexios.[21][22]

1101

1108

1111

  • Alexios I grants trading privileges to the Pisans, reducing custom duties and allowing them to establish a colony in Constantinople.[25][26]

1119

  • Alexios I's successor, John II Komnenos, does not confirm the Venetians' trading privileges, stating that they abused them.[27]

1122–1125

1126

  • August. Emperor John II restores the Venetians' trading privileges.[30]

1137

  • Spring. John II conquers the Cilician plains from Antioch and replaces the Catholic bishops with Orthodox prelates.[31][32]

1145

1147–1148

  • Fearing of an anti-Byzantine French–Norman coalition, Emperor Manuel I Komnenos tries to convince King Louis VII of France to avoid Constantinople during his march to the Holy Land, but Louis VII ignores him. Godefroy de la Roche Vanneau, Bishop of Langres, urges Louis VII to conquer Constantinople in retaliation for the dismissal of the Catholic bishops in Cilicia and for the Byzantine attacks against Antioch, but the King refuses. Hunger forces the French crusaders to seize food from the Greeks in western Anatolia by force, provoking their counter-attacks. The Byzantine fleet carries Louis VII and his nobles to Antioch, but the Seljuks annihilate most common soldiers who are left behind in Anatolia. The crusaders blame the Byzantines for the failure of the Second Crusade.[34][35]

1155

  • Manuel I grants trading privileges to the Genoese.[36]

1162

  • Street fights among the Genoese, Pisans and Venetians in Constantinople. Manuel I bans the Genoese and Pisans from the empire, enabling the Venetians to monopolize the foreign trade.[37]

  • Manuel I allows the Genoese and Pisans to return to Constantinople. After the Venetians destroy the new Genoese quarter, Manuel I's orders the imprisonment of all Venetians and the confiscation of their ships and goods. The Venetian fleet plunders Aegean islands.[38][39]

1180–1182

  • Manuel I's widow, Maria of Antioch, assumes regency for their eleven-year-old son, Alexios II Komnenos. Her favoritism towards the Genoese and Pisans alienates the Byzantines. After Manuel I's cousin, Andronikos Komnenos, rose up against her in Paphlagonia, a popular uprising broke out in Constantinople. The mob massacre Pisan and Genoese merchants and Catholic priests, including the papal legate, Cardinal John.[40][41]

1183

  • Early. Alexios Angelos cannot convince Innocent III to acknowledge his claim to the Byzantine throne.[70]
  • 24 June. The Venetians complete the crusaders' fleet, but the crusader leaders can only pay 60% of the agreed price, because many crusaders departed for the Holy Land from other ports. Enrico Dandolo proposes a compromise, offering to delay the payment of the missing amount in return for the crusaders' support to conquer Zadar, a Dalmatian town accepting the suzerainty of Emeric, King of Hungary.[74]
  • 22 July. The crusader leaders accept Dandolo's offer. They also agree to invade Egypt after wintering in Dalmatia.[75]

  • Autumn. Clashes between the crusaders and the Greeks in Constantinople. The Catholics flee from Constantinople to seek asylum in the crusaders' camp. Alexios III's son-in-law, Theodore Laskaris flees to Bithynia (in western Anatolia).[81][82]

1204

  • January–February. Byzantine aristocrats and commoners are plotting against Isaac II and Alexios IV. Isaac II dies and the discontented Byzantines elect the crusaders' enemy, Alexios Doukas, or Alexios V, emperor. The new emperor had Alexios IV murdered.

Latin Empire edit

Establishment edit

1204

Kaloyan offers military assistance to the Latins in return for the division of Thrace, but the Latins arrogantly decline his offer.[90][91]
  • 9 May. Baldwin of Flanders is elected the first Latin Emperor of Constantinople.[92][93]
  • 16 May. Nivelon de Cherissy, Bishop of Soissons, crowns and anoints Baldwin I emperor in the Hagia Sophia. Greek courtiers and commoners attend the ceremony, because they are willing to acknowledge him as the lawful emperor, but he holds only Constantinople and the neighboring lands.[94][95]
  • May. Andronikos I's grandsons, Alexios and David Komnenos conquer Trebizond with the assistance of Queen Tamar of Georgia. Alexios assumes the title of emperor, establishing a Byzantine successor state, the Empire of Trebizond, in northeastern Anatolia. Bohemond IV of Antioch swears fealty to Baldwin's wife, Marie of Champagne, at Acre. Baldwin I grants Anatolia—still to be conquered—to Boniface in fief to placate him, but Boniface claims Thessalonica.[96][97][85]
  • May–June. Baldwin I invades Thrace, still held by the deposed emperors, Alexios III and Alexios V. Alexios V seeks an alliance with Alexios III, but Alexios III had him captured and blinded. Most Thracian towns yield to Baldwin I.[98][99]
  • August. Baldwin I captures Thessalonica, outraging Boniface who attacks Adrianople. Boniface offers his stepson—Emperor Isaac II's son—to the burghers of Adrianople as their ruler, but they refuse. Boniface sells his claim to Crete to the Venetians and appeals to the council of the crusader leaders against Baldwin I. Baldwin I and Boniface reach a compromise whereby Boniface is acknowledged as king of Thessalonica.[96][98][100]
  • September. A commission of 12 crusaders and 12 Venetians decide on the distribution of the Byzantine Empire, including territories still under the rule of Byzantine claimants. In accordance with their March pact, one-quarter of the land is assigned to the emperor, while the remaining territory is divided between the Venetians and the Latin aristocrats. The Venetian Thomas Morosini is elected the Latin Patriarch of Constantinople.[101][96]
  • October–November. Boniface invades Greece and captures Alexios III. Boniface grants Boeotia and Attica to a Burgundian knight, Othon de la Roche.

Michael takes command of the local Greeks' resistance, establishing the Byzantine successor state, now known as Despotate of Epiros.[102][103]
  • November. Coming from the Holy Land to the Latin Empire, a storm forces Geoffrey of Villehardouin to land at Modon. He concludes an alliance with a local Greek archon (or aristocrat) to conquer the Morea.

Alexius marries Henry's illegitimate daughter.[123][129][130]
  • December. Henry marches to Thessalonica, but Biandrate allows him to enter the city only after he acknowledges the Thessalonican monarchs' suzerainty over Thessaly, Boeotia, Attica and Euboea. Henry and Margaret of Hungary made an alliance and force Biandrate and his allies to flee.[131]
