Notes

  1. After the fall of the Latin Empire in 1261, Achaea refused to become a Byzantine vassal, and came under the suzerainty of the Angevins, although they recognized the Latin Emperors in exile as their rulers until the death of James of Baux in 1383. The title was also held by several titular Latin Emperors.
  2. The duchy recognized the Latin Empire's authority until the latter's collapse in 1261.
