Epirus
The Despotate of Epirus was a Greek successor state of Byzantium, ruled from Arta. In 1337 Emperor Andronikos III reannexed the land and appointed Theodore Synadenos governor.
A despotate revived around Ioannina under Serbian and then Italian lords from 1367. Carlo I Tocco reunited most of Epirus by 1416, but the Ottomans advanced through its towns. Vonitsa, the last fortress, fell to them in 1479.
