Anna Angelina

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Anna Angelina was a daughter of the Byzantine Emperor Alexios III Angelos and of Euphrosyne Doukaina Kamatera.

Her first marriage was to the sebastokratōr Isaac Komnenos, a great-nephew of the emperor Manuel I Komnenos. They had one daughter, Theodora Angelina. Soon after Anna's father became emperor, in 1195, Isaac Komnenos was dispatched to combat the Vlach-Bulgarian Rebellion. He was captured, became a pawn between rival Bulgarian and Vlach factions, and died in chains.

Her second marriage to Theodore Laskaris, eventually emperor of Nicaea, was celebrated in a double wedding in early 1200 (the other couple was Anna's sister Eirene and Alexios Palaiologos). Anna and Theodore had three daughters and two sons:

  1. Erene Laskarina, who married (1) general Andronikos Palaiologos; (2) John III Doukas Vatatzes, emperor of Nicaea
  2. Maria Laskarina, who married King Bela IV of Hungary
  3. Eudokia Laskarina
  4. Nicholas (Nikolaos) Laskaris
  5. John (Iōannēs) Laskaris
