I'm Still Giving Him Shit About It In the city has been reinforced protection system and various chores fortification. In the years that followed, Theodore Angelus hostilities shifted . Here he received one after the other castles Ohrid Prilep , the Pelagonia ( Bitola ), etc. . But the main objective was to Thessaloniki, which tore Theodore Lombard barons in 1224 . Here, he was crowned " Emperor of the Byzantine autocrat " by the powerful Archbishop of Ohrid , Demetrius Komatiani . Thessaloniki became the new center where Theodore moved his court . Holdings Albanian government entrusted his brother Theodore, Constantine, who awarded the title despot . Following the example of the Byzantine emperors , it was dispersed as sebastokrator titles of nobility , domestic large protovestiar etc. . ,
his closest collaborators , among them quite generous Albanians. In the management of affairs of the " empire " of his , Theodore helped by a "council of elected ." Strong support of its policy gave prelates of the Church, to whom Theodore always shown special attention. Metropolitan Naupaktit Jan Apakauku , Archbishop of Corfu, George Bardhani it Ohrid , Demetrius Komatiani and Kanin bishop had several closest advisers Theodore .

Upon receipt of Thessaloniki, the second largest Theodore goal remains conquest of Constantinople , which will mark the end of the Latin Empire of Byzantium recovery . Between 1225-1230 his armies achieved great success in East Macedonia Thrace , where conquered Adrianople . But in a place called Klokotnica in 1230 , the troops Theodore suffered a humiliating defeat by the armies of the Bulgarian Tsar Ivan II Aseni , which was disturbed by building epiriot Theodore progress of the State in the field of Bulgarian interests.

Durres became part of her back, while the other castles in Macedonia was annexed Thessaly . This state but this time ran into a powerful opponent , who at that time had become an important political factor in the Balkans. The Empire of Nicaea was a set up similar to the Despotate of Epirus , who was born after the year 1204 in Asia Minor. Nikenë wars are the second important phase in the history of the Despotate of Epirus. As the despots of Epirus , the emperors of Nicaea stood the legal heirs to the throne of Byzantium. To the recovery of Constantinople and the Byzantine Empire was the main line of policy, resulting animosity with their rivals Epirus . After weakening the Kingdom of Bulgaria , won Empire Nicaea lead events in the Balkans.

His army grew deeper in northern Shkodra captured 1,215 more, but quickly pulled away to be placed in the line of Durres .

This state under his rule Epirus reached the extent of its range. Despot new policy was oriented exclusively from birth and principalities aimed at the destruction of the Latin Crusaders in Greece, Macedonia and Thrace , the recovery of the Byzantine Empire and his coronation as emperor of Byzantium. In this context, particular importance has taken control of Durres and the backbone of the Royal Road ( Egnatia ) , which opened the way to the bastions of Macedonia in Thessaloniki and vital links simultaneously detach the Roman Empire Constantinople or the Lombard kingdom powers Thessaloniki mother west .

"

In fact, since the beginning of his reign, Theodore faced a Latino effort to obtain the corridor of the Egnatia road. In summer 1217 , the new Latin Empire of Constantinople , Pierre de Kurtëne above an army launched from the port of Brindisi , landed to Constantinople Durres . After receipt of the city, the army continued its march on Latin Egnatia to Thessalonica. Byzantine historian George Akropoliti admits he raised military ambush Latin despot Theodore " in difficult places know " somewhere in the valley Shkumbini . Here in the battle, the French army was badly broken and Kurtënè emperor was captured . A French chronicler, successor of Robert Autissiodorensis attributes Westerners disaster hostile attitude of the local population ( indigenorum malic ) who collaborated with the despot of Epirus . After this victory, Theodore Durres recovered.

Since the last decades of the...

And That's How It Actually Happend Since the last decades of the century. XII a subsidiary of the Byzantine imperial family had received angelic in Epirus , especially in the province of Vagenetisë ( Cameria ) , large landholdings and implemented it an almost independent power of Constantinople. In this way, after the conquest of the Byzantine Empire by the Crusaders in 1204, an offshoot of Byzantine angelic, angel Michael , son of the former governor of Epirus , created by an independent property. Time charters call it " despots of Arta ," according to its capital. Customary in historiography is called " despots of Epirus" . During its history of more than two centuries of Epirus This state changed several times its expansion. However , the core of sustainable territorial scope of application of the subject represented by the ancient Byzantine Nikopojës defined by Akrokeraune mountains ( Thunderbolt ) north of the Gulf of Arta ( Ambrakisë ) in the south and the river flow mountain Pindos Vjosa east .

Ionian Sea to the west Despotate Waterfowl Habitat . Besides the center , Arta, cities and other important castles were Janina Ajdonati ( Paramithia ) Himara , Berat , Kanina and for a time ( 1213-1253 ) and Durres . Albanians were the majority of the population in its Despotate classic layout . If the population had already Vlach Albanian , Greek and Slavic located mainly in the regions of Thessaly, Macedonia , and Etolo - Akarnanisë , which was annexed by the despots of Epirus after the year 1216 .

From the point of view of the organization of the state , this state of Epirus was a Byzantine state . In addition to this stood the imperial family despots angel. These acts and their official documents show the name of the angel compound - Duke - Komnen , remembering if angelic connections with other Byzantine dynasties. Auto executives Epirus disagree with the status of a provincial rule . They stood to his legitimate heirs to the throne of Byzantium and in this sense their power Epirus considered as a starting point to restore the Byzantine Empire, by expelling the Crusaders Byzantine countries.
The early years of the reign of despot Mihal Angel (1204-1216) devoted to the internal consolidation of the state of the newborn. At that time there were conflicts with the Crusader principalities , created in 1204 after the boundaries of the Despotate , Thessaloniki Lombard kingdom, duchy of Athens and in the French Principality of acs . Once a steady state within these formations , put on the extension of the Despotate to the north. In 1210 , this state of Epirus was courted assiduously Venetian Duchy of Durres .

Although the rule of Venice in Durres has been shown untenable. Efforts to extend the jurisdiction beyond the city of Venice were opposed namely Prince Demetrius . Learn noble lords of the land were already on the outskirts of Durres , which not only worried Durres Venetian power , but the city and the Catholic diocese, who said that Demetrius and his men had occupied properties. To put pressure on the Arber prince , duke of Venice made ​​a covenant with Prince Dioklesë ( Genta ), George , who is committed to help Venice against Dimitri . But it had already managed to make themselves powerful Pope Innocent III , who promised his conversion, the generosity of the people in the Catholic religion.

These developments in...

If Harry Potter Was An Anime Series These developments in Albania , which is a comprehensive plan to intensify the process of feudalism Byzantine Empire , with the weakening of the central government and decentralization , at the end of the century. XII , led to the creation of a structure with clear roles in the Arber region of the state and the crystallization of a local ruling dynasty. Given the title of "prince" ( princeps) , Pope Innocent III in 1208 gave one of its leaders , Demetrios , the structure of the state is generally called in historiography " Principality of Arber ," as it is called " despots of Epirus" training neighboring principality of Arber, headquartered in Golden, who overcame a despot.

After the fall of the dynasty and the arrival Komnena Byzantine dynasty to the throne of poor territories gained angelic Arber has an independent state. Its founder was Progoni (1190-1198) , whose powers inherited son , Gender (1198-1206) and Demetrius ( 1206-1216 ) . Rare documents of the time did not say which family they belonged to know. It is quite possible that senior leaders know century . XII - XIII Skurra family belonged to the mountain of Tirana , where the name is still facing toponymy Skurrë and antroponiminë the country. The name of this family constantly struggling sources century. XII - XIII as among the most important Arber .

Continued progress in the depth of Nemanja Albanian lands , taking the region dashboard ( mountains on both sides of the river Drin united ) , which was part of the Principality of Arber . After the family liaison Nemanjët Serbia Principality of Arber kept regularly involved extending Shkumbin waterfall between Lezha , Durres , Ohrid and Debar .

Principality of Arber cohesion reaches its greatest rule of Demetrius . Under his authority were spotted him while the family of prominent Arber, as was Jonimët , plit , Shtëpanët etc. Kamona . In a peace treaty signed by him in 1210 with the Republic of Ragusa , Demetrius calls them , according to the feudal law of the West, " my people" ( homines mei ) . Even the title of "judge" ( iudex ) or "prince" ( originator ) assigned by Pope Innocent III Demetrios speak to distinguish its position among the nobility Arber . They also show that the family of the princes of Arber beyond the century. XII - XIII was influenced by Western culture and feudalism . This confirms the action taken in 1208 by Prince Demetrius pass the Catholic rite , being associated with the Roman Catholic Church.

Despite Western influences that feudal models in the organization and strengthening of the Principality of Arber, the Byzantine tradition was still very powerful. Demetrius preferred to use their own prestigious titles Byzantine or megas panhypersebast arhond other generous bearing securities or protosebast Sebas is Byzantine . Principality center Arber was Kruja . At the time of Demetrius , Principality had a cruise on the coast between Bisht - Palla and Mat River spill.

After the fall of Durres Norm...

How I Broke With My Gf On Facebook After the fall of Durres Norman armies rushed eastward and briefly occupied territories of Debar , Polog of Devollit . But in spring 1082 Robert Guiskardi was forced to return to Italy, where the revolt erupted Norman princes , driven by Alexis I Comnenus . Guiskardit son , Boemundi could not keep to established positions . Under the blows of the Byzantine army and aboriginal winding , the Normans began to withdraw . The Byzantines in 1084 , aided by locals picked Durres . Guiskardi same year , Robert died in his dominions in Italy and the last troops were withdrawn from Albania Norman.

At the end of the reign of Emperor Alexius I Komnen on 1118, the Albanian coast was also hit twice more by the army from the west . 1096 on the ports of Durres, Vlora armed Butrint landed the First Crusade , led by various kings and princes of Europe. Among them, Robert of Flanders and self Boemundi , Norman ruler of southern Italy. Another grouping Crusaders under the command of Raymond of Toulouse, came to earth through the Durres Dioklesë Dalmatia. In Diokle , the Crusaders were expecting " amicably " by Prince Bodin , who was already in open war with the Byzantine power . Check fighters in the western areas, which had a few years ago was the battle between the Normans and Byzantines, embarrassed Alex Comnenus .

He ordered his commanders Durres, Vlora and other regions to monitor the movements of the Crusaders and prevent any attempt to attack their Byzantine territory looted. However, Alex Comnenus avoid direct confrontation with them and everything to accelerate the elimination of cross- east. Ana Komnena and Western historians , who accompanied the First Crusade , the Crusaders show tired and exhausted sailing in the Adriatic Sea, found in rich markets and fairs of Durres, Glavinicës Adrianople ( Gjirokastra ) rest and supplies needed to continued their march to the holy places .

However contradictions between the emperor and the princes of the Byzantine crusades , especially since they created their principalities to the east, until hardened arrived and ended in clashes between Christian armies . Particularly marked clashes with Alex Comnenus his old enemy , Boemundin , who had established a principality in Syria based in Antioch Norman. Unable to cope with the Byzantine emperor in the Far East on Boemundi principality in 1107 he returned to Italy and began preparations for a new invasion of Byzantine territory .
Large fleet this year Normans landed in areas of Vlora , where Boemundit armies sent by land Durres . City beat was to stand repeated attempts Normans, who used all the tools and techniques of the occupation time . Without laying siege to the city, Boemundi continued his march eastwards. The Emperor Alexius tried to stop the progression of the hosts Norman blocking passages that lead to Ohrid and Debar . Arber region , refuge for the strategic position of its fortified systems became the main theater of combat operations .

Alex managing their emperor and praised the local commanders of the foreground, which distinguish between Kabashi Alexander ( Kabasilla ) of Eustath Kamizi . Itself , with many forces were placed deep in the Ohrid region , Devol Cologne , where his support people engaged in the fight against the Normans in Arber, Glavinić in Vlora . After several months of exhausting struggle , Norman army , stranded on the western plains , was forced to give up and return to Italy . Boemundi signed in Byzantine Emperor camp in Cologne humiliating agreement , under which he renounces any attack against the Byzantine territory of its shareholdings in Italy and Syria ( Antioch ) , and he himself recognized as a vassal Alexander the Komnen .

Under the reign of Alex boys Johani I II (1118-1143) and Manuel I Komnen (1143-1180) , Normans and Byzantines each made an attempt to overcome the Adriatic. Ruggeri II in 1149 on the King of Sicily conquered Corfu and from there , after Epirus landed on the mainland , proceeded in the direction of Thebes and Corinth.

Externally, the Byzantine...

How Female Logic Works Externally, the Byzantine Empire gets a clear orientation of the West will be maintained throughout Komnena rule of the dynasty ( 1081-1185 ) . 1071 Byzantium lost most of its last castle in the south of Italy , Bari. From that moment, against the Byzantine territories began the incessant attacks of the Normans and western crusaders . This new dynamic in East-West relations Albanian lands placed at the center of events. Already represented distal border west of Byzantium, while the new powers of western Albania , ports and roads with its longitudinal axis , which still excelled old Royal Road ( Egnatia ), is the ideal bridge to allow progression of invading armies to Constantinople. As a result , the Albanian lands became major military confrontations countries , cultural and religious , who have greatly influenced their historical development .

After the conquest of Bari in 1071, Robert Guiskardi managed to unite all the possessions of the Norman princes of southern Italy and established a powerful kingdom , who immediately looked at the other side of the Adriatic. In the spring of 1081, a large army of Norman left the ports of Brindisi and Otranto, under the direction of self Guiskardit and son Boemundit . The last part of the fleet landed on the shores of Vlora and in a short time , conquered the city and centers of strategic importance Jericho Kanin ( Orikumi ) . The main part of the Norman army , under the direction of Robert Guiskardit , landed on the south , in the area of ​​Butrint . Father and son are Durres , first by the sea, and the second by a terrestrial March . A storm in Cape surprised Guiskardin Language , killing most of the Norman fleet. The remains of his army arrived to join forces in Glavinić Boemundit ( Ballesh ) , where new reinforcements arrived and Italy. After conquering all " field of Illyria " in June 1081 Norman armies managed to close the encirclement of Durres .

Byzantine emperor , Alex I Komnen no way sought to avoid the invasion of the main town of the Adriatic, which open the way to Constantinople Thessaloniki. He sent as commander of the city of his neighbor, George Palaeologus . To disrupt the forces of communication with the banks Guiskardit Robert Apulisë , Comnenus made ​​an alliance with Venice, which has made the Byzantine emperor his powerful fleet against trade privileges in recognition of the territories of the Byzantine Empire. This agreement, which was renewed several times in the following years, laid the foundations of the hegemony of Venice in the seas Byzantine markets.

About 30 years after the uprising...

He Who Will Not Be Laid!!!! About 30 years after the uprising Peter Daylami , another movement erupted in Kosovo , which quickly opens adjacent regions. The rebels sought to lead Dioklesë prince, Mihal , who sent his son to this end, Constantine Bodin . In Prizren rebels declared their king Bodin . Bodin was merged with the nobles of Skopje with its leader, George Vojtehu , who himself came to Prizren. In Prizren rebels broke badly Byzantine Duke of Skopje, which was sent against them forces. After the rebels took Nis , Ohrid and only Devollin Kastoria Byzantine forces were able to break the main insurgent group reorganized . The rest of the rebels, with "King" Bodin, was concentrated in Nis . In an effort to address the Skopje busy, Bodin forces were badly shattered by the Byzantine army sent by the emperor in haste " to extinguish the fire before it filtered " , as expressed by a Byzantine chronicler, event control.
During the battle Bodini was captured and sent to Constantinople where the monastery was closed in Baku for Serge and his father, Dioklesë Mihal , organized the escape of his return home.

Relations with the Byzantine Empire continued Dioklesë Bodin still tense. After the battle of 1082 on the outskirts of Durres year when Bodini never came with the Byzantine armies engaged in a decisive battle with the Normans of Robert Guiskardit , Prince showed Dioklesë open ambitions to extend its dominance in areas of Dalmatia, in the north, and the territories Tools Durres, in the south. In addition, according to the chronicle of Dioklesë Priest , for a short period Bodini could capture and keep the subject in question , with its capital , Durres ( crumb atque obtinuit totam Terram Duracinorum and Ipsam civitatem Durachium ) . The Byzantine Emperor Alexius I Comnenus , and sent as a strategist Durres his brother , the Duke Johan , who took control on the theme of Durres and Bodin gave away its territories.

Bazili II was the last emperor....

He Is The Difinition Of Badass Bazili II was the last emperor of the Macedonian dynasty that has managed to maintain internal balance between the social and political interests of the State , those feudal aristocracy and the free peasantry and Stratiotes which constitute the backbone of the Byzantine state . With his death ( 1018) , this balance has been destroyed : the feudal aristocracy , civil or military began an uncontrolled increase their property by taking over smaller property . Smallholders have gradually lost the previous state of freedom and returned to the villagers depend . For a long time the Byzantine State , the first emperors of the Macedonian dynasty (IX - XI century ) tried to come often to create a large property and the disappearance of small peasant ownership process. Peasant and free Stratioti , who received a plot of the state is to the financial responsibility of the army , had long been the main source of cash income and the base of the Byzantine imperial army simultaneously .

But the new conditions that were created after the death of Bazilit II , smallholders have found themselves facing a double attack : the feudal aristocracy of the earth, on the one hand , and the Byzantine state reached epidemic has aggravated in the tax burden at the expense of them. So has created an explosive situation, which is not a coincidence reached its peak in the Balkan territories hardest hit by the recent struggles of the Bulgarian -Byzantine . In 1040 a rebellion broke out here against strong central government led by Peter Deljani , a Bulgarian generous stood Samuel , grand-son of the car and Tsar said quickly. The uprising spread from Belgrade to Nis and Skopje speed. Byzantine strategist Durres, Bazil Sinadeni , brought his military theme and hurried to impede insurgent Peter Deljanit " before spreading evil ," as the chronicler says Johan Skilice that describes this event. But the revolt touched even army tools Durres and appointed a military Tihomir raised the flag of rebellion in the region of Debar , where forces were deployed strategist Durres . Deljani Here insurgents Peter arrived with his.

The insurgents have joined forces under the leadership of Peter Deljanit , who had rid Tihomirin . Thereafter , the rebel forces approached Durres, which had, and still have Thessaloniki. The flames of rebellion includes the subject immediately Nikopojës , whose population was very disappointed by the arbitrariness of imperial officials . The Byzantines were able to keep here Naupaktit only castle on the Gulf of Corinth.
However , due to the continuing contradictions within the leadership of the insurgency after the assassination of movement Tihomirit soon died of what was expected considering its size. Here also played its role Bulgarian Tsar Ivan Vladislav guys Alusiani who escaped from Constantinople where captive and joined the rebels . Once removed Peter Daylami Alusiani was indicted rebels. But after an unsuccessful battle with the imperial troops , went Alusiani Byzantine emperor also accelerate the end of the insurgency. However great uprising of 1040-1041 year was the first sign of social tensions that will grab the Byzantine Empire. At the same time , it was a good indication of the gap that was created between the central government as Byzantium and western provinces , which were part of the Albanian territories.

On the other hand , the powers...

Girl You Nailed It On the other hand , the powers of the starting quarterback in the field of civil power declined in favor of employees , as was the start of a judge ( or krites of Praetorian ), which reported directly to the center and are now dealing with the case civil administration . Great social impact and external challenges of the century in the eastern Byzantine Empire in relations with the West and with the Seljuk Turks , contributed to favorable conditions for uprisings Durres great military strategists of the latter half of the century. XI . Durres subjects at that time became one of the main homes of uprisings against the Byzantine central government. The first strategists Durres, who rebelled against Constantinople , was proèdres Niqifor brieni . This had been the quarterback Tools Skopje , where the uprising was suppressed in 1073 year. The theme of Durres transferred to the mid-70s , brieni had emerged from the protection of the northern border war with Croats and Slavs with diokleasit . At the same time , he also faced attacks pirate ship Normans in Italy, who have for lying to the east, in the territories of the Byzantine Empire.
In October 1077, gave the signal strategist brieni Niqifor uprising against Emperor Michael VII Doukas . Byzantine chroniclers assert unanimously that the insurgents have joined the local population Niqifor Tools Durres and many local lords , including Bazil Kurtiqi by Arber . Niqifori declared emperor Michail accident and after declaring himself emperor in Constantinople with an army that was how young volunteers grew. In Adrianople Brienin expect other insurgents organized by his brother, Johani . But on the outskirts of the rebel forces in the city in conflict with the imperial army, which has already ordered Alex Comnenus , Byzantine generals among the most remarkable of all time . Rebel army was shattered and debris were scattered .
While his brieni insurgents headed for Constantinople, Durres entered Niqifor Baziliaku , named after the Duke of Durres rebellion view. But the new Duke hastened and Durres, just months after Brienit pleaded emperor and rebelled against the center.
Supported by the nobles and the local clergy, who was distinguished Devolli bishop , Theodore, he has received numerous Albanian Byzantine forces where mercenaries are not absent from the west. In addition to them, he went from Durres, past Ohrid and came second city of the Empire , Thessaloniki. Initially empire Botoniati Niqifor III tried to persuade the rebels to withdraw from march on the capital , promising forgiveness of new titles finikërie . Baziliaku refused the offer and was therefore achieved in a bloody battle with government forces , which are controlled again Alex Comnenus . The rebels were defeated and self Baziliaku was taken in chains to Constantinople.

Great uprising of 1040-1041 years..

Evolution Of Emma Watson Great uprising of 1040-1041 years , and this is the year 1073, which had been deep echo in the Albanian lands , warned the entire period of unrest and revolt that shook the foundations of the Byzantine Empire. In addition to the massive rural movements , characterizing the period 1040-1081 a series of initiated and led by captains ( strategists ) on specific topics military rebellions . Durres Albania theme especially in the years became one of the hotspots of the Byzantine Empire.
Military revolts of the second half of the century. Xi , including revolts strategists ( dukëve ) Durres , was a direct reflection of the internal changes that have been incurred in this time of the Byzantine Empire and mainly associated with the development of feudal relations . After the death of Emperor Bazili II and the end of the Macedonian dynasty Monomahos Constantine IX (1042-1055) , ended the era characterized by small freehold farmer - Soldier ( stratiotit ) . At this time, the defense of the Byzantine emperors , who designed for this purpose a special law , the small property was then left to thank you big landowners , who in his back began to expand their farms. Such a process of absorption of cheap small property and the expansion of the great feudal property , threatened demolition of large class of soldiers , farmers, who for more than a century has been the backbone of the Byzantine state , as long as farmers Albanians were the main providers of funding and the Byzantine army . But with the decline of fallen soldiers farmer class role of caste and military leaders , strategists , while increasing the weight of large landowners and bureaucratic aristocracy of the Byzantine capital , Constantinople.

These new developments in the Byzantine Empire affected by nearby Albania , which was the classic free peasantry and Stratiotes . Therefore, some of the most powerful military uprisings century. Xi had the main theater exactly Albanian territories.

In 1043 rebelled against the central government Georg manic, Byzantine commands leading fight against Arabs and Normans in Sicily and Southern Italy. Increase manic authority was not seen with good eyes by the new Byzantine strategist Italy , Michael Dokianos , and Emperor Constantine IX , who dismissed . Supported by his loyal units , which distinguished between contingents from Arber , gave the signal manic uprising in Sicily, where his troops proclaimed him emperor. In their minds , he landed at Durres and supported by the people who joined the Byzantine army - Albanian Thessaloniki addressed by the royal road ( Egnatia ) . Army rebels in Macedonia has made progress unimpeded to the place called Ostrov met the imperial army. Georg accidental death maniac , while the rebel victory was sure , was the extinction of movement.

However , the performance of Georg uprising manic clearly showed that Albania , especially Subject Durres up Arber ( Arbanon ) had already become a fertile ground for such events. Century Byzantine historian . Xi, Michael Ataliati , said at the time the Albanians , once allies of the Byzantine Empire ( the symmachioi ), became "surprise" his opponents ( polemioi ) . Such developments in relations with Byzantium Albanian , especially Trier Arber , Nadia reflected even in Durres Tools relations with the central government. Dissatisfied with the Albanian population often you even joining tools Durres . They are increasingly concerned about the persistent wrinkles in the military as well as civil law powers. In fact, after the death of Bazilit II , the Byzantine army began to rely more and more on the involvement of mercenaries sent by the center, which weaken the role of tools to perform military elements recruited by the instruments national and strategist.

One of the main reasons for the...

Eternal Youth One of the main reasons for the creation of tools Durres in the first half of the century. IX had faced a slave pressure , Bulgaria him. At the end of the century. VII , merging the Bulgarian and Slavic tribes ( of Turkish origin ), was created between the Danube and the Balkan State first Slavic Bulgarian Kingdom Balkans, which quickly became a huge risk to the Byzantine Empire. In the middle of the century. IX Bulgarian state had extended its borders and Macedonia under King Boris ( 852-879 ) , including the strip between delta Devolli river. Castles and Devolli Pulkeropolit (Portland) became the basis of the Bulgarian government in these areas. In 864 Boris embraced his people , the Christian religion , taking the name of Michael . The new religion has good cohesion Slav- Bulgarian state and enabled further expansion in the Byzantine territories. When Simeon ( 894-927 ) , Bulgaria reached the extent of its range. With the exception of Durres and Shkodra , Simeon captured in all areas of the Lower Central Albania. South of Vlora , he took much of Nikopojës Tools . In 913 the Byzantine emperor Constantine VII was forced to recognize the title Simeon " Emperor of Bulgaria " and marry a girl of Bulgarian tsar. While for years the Byzantine Empire was forced to pay annual tribute Bulgarians .

Bulgarian- Byzantine But peace did not last long . In the years that followed the armed attacked Simeon devastated Durres and its surroundings. Top 918 Bulgarians were driven south by the subject Nikopojës and arrived in the Gulf of Corinth.
However dream car Simeon , create a Bulgarian empire instead of Byzantium ended with his sudden death on 27 May 927. His successors, Pierre Boris , were at the height of Simeon and was forced to recognize that more and less Byzantine sovereignty.

Bulgarian occupation left visible signs in Albanian lands, especially in the corridor that runs through the valley of the river to the Devolli coast, where he continued to hold until the beginning of the century. XI . In addition to separate provinces have been generous here Bulgarians, who often brought their people , including the Bulgarian clergy, who contributed to the penetration of a Slavic culture - Byzantine in the region. In the second half of the century. IX in the Ohrid region , Korca , Devolli , Portland held its missionary activity Clement of Ohrid , a disciple of Cyril and Methodius , who worked for years to create schools Slavic churches. At this time, the flow areas between Devol Vjosë involved in ecclesiastical and cultural impact of Ohrid, the Bulgarians returned to the center of the independent Bulgarian Patriarchate . Bulgarian invasion century. IX - X is linked to the development of some important military centers of ecclesiastical administration, as Devolli Glavinić ( Ballesh ), etc. . Ballsh magnificent basilica was found at the beginning of the century. XX also an inscription , which recalled the return of Boris - Michael and the Bulgarian people in the Christian faith in 864 .

After decades of submission to the Byzantine Empire , following an uprising that was the epicenter antibizantine Macedonia , the Bulgarian Tsar Samuel came throne ( 976-1014 ) . Under his reign , the center of the Bulgarian State eastward Preslavi , Prespa and Ohrid. In this context, the Albanian territories have taken an important first-hand and was closely involved in the conflict between Samuel and the Byzantine Empire. For Samuel united under its authority throughout Macedonia in Thessaloniki, Old Bulgarian mountain region between the Danube and the Balkans, and Thessaly , subjects Nikopojës Durres , and Rashee Dioklenë North. Under his reign recovered independent Bulgarian Patriarchate , which ultimately decided the seat in Ohrid , the capital of Samuel .

Historical evidence indicates that Samuel car had no intent to cause a reversal in military structures - Administrative Albanian territories occupied by it. Thus, in Diokle he left the reigning prince John Vladimir, who has also offered the hand of his daughter , Kozara . In Durres, after 997, Samuel did not really privileges and power of the nobles of the city , represented by the powerful family of Krisilëve . John Krisili , proteuon City was favored over the city in the hands of Samuel . Bulgarian alliance with the noble Tsar Krisilët durrsake was sealed with his marriage to the daughter of John Krisilit . In the region of Vlora and Berat , control offspring Samuel entrusted to a local noble family, Elinagër Frëngut . Also acted Devolli Cologne, Vageneti elsewhere. Samuel scope of government in these countries has been facilitated by the fact that it has implemented a new system of obligations to farmers who rely on the contributions of other facilities.

Under the reign of Leo...

Epic Girl Tranformation Under the reign of Leo III ( 717-741 ) , the Byzantine Empire was engulfed by a serious internal religious conflict. Basically its ongoing interpretation that the different role that had become sacred images (icons) were in the Christian faith. From the time of Justinian worship icons of saints ( ikonolatria ) introduced such a wide gap in the Byzantine church , which has turned into one of the main forms of religious expression . Churches and monasteries were filled at the time with icons of saints precious and expensive , is both an indicator of wealth and luxury in which swimmers clergy and religious institutions. This resentment harbored a large extent all social strata of the population thought that I would have been like in the days of the apostles, and the virtuous poor. On the other hand , not missing even within the church leaning against the veneration of icons , under which such worship had nothing to do with Christianity , a very spiritual religion. These trends have been strongest in the eastern provinces of the Byzantine Empire soil more fertile for the religious movement , which has continued to survive monofizizmit wasting time and where it is stretched and strengthened pavlikanëve sect , against any form of religious worship.

Finally, the war against the veneration of icons was the result of influence of Byzantine Christianity and Islam , the Jewish , that Byzantium was in constant contact. Both religions are dead against any form of reproduction in its holy figure. In this way , the struggle against the veneration of icons ( iconoclasm ) was deeply rooted religious , cultural and social .
The emperor Leo III in open struggle against the veneration of icons , primarily intended to affirm the power of the central government of unlimited power over religious institutions and provinces , especially those devices, which is not a coincidence lined the side fan icons . Iconoclasm meet fierce resistance in Italy Byzantine provinces of Illyria , who were under the ecclesiastical jurisdiction of the Pope of Rome. Yet even here iconoclasm has not failed to make his own supporters. Thus, by two Byzantine theologian known letters, Theodore Studiti sent in 820 years, Archbishop of Durres , Anthony, and the other is a monk of Durres , Dionysus, learned that iconoclasm was adopted in the diocese and the clergy representatives of a regular ( monks ) , which are generally more opponents there .

There is no evidence that the war icons will be taken into Albanian lands who had severe forms in other parts of the Byzantine Empire. However, his past in an event of great importance for the development not only ecclesiastical , but also for policies in the Albanian territories. The emperor Leo III ikonoklast uprooted them from the jurisdiction of the Pope of Rome and put directly under the Patriarch of Constantinople ( 732). This step , along with the establishment at the beginning of the century . IX , the Byzantine theme of Nikopojës Durres, greatly influenced the strengthening of central control in the western provinces of the Empire.
