Rebellion of Arbanon
The Rebellion of Arbanon (Albanian: Kryengritja e Arbërit) in 1257–1259 was a revolt of the Principality of Arbanon (in modern central Albania) against the Empire of Nicaea and in favour of the rival Despotate of Epirus. == History == Arbanon had long been an autonomous principality within Epirus, and the Nicaean conquest around 1255 was resented.
