SUMMARY
The newly-founded Latin state, known as the Duchy of Athens, with Thebes as its capital, and later Athens under the Florentines, included Attica, Boeotia, Megaris, Argos and Nauplion. Rulers often changed: Franks (the families de la Roche, de St. Omer and de Brienne), Spaniards (Catalan Company, Navarrese Company), Italians (the Florentine Acciaujoli). A period of subjugation to the Ottomans and a brief period of Byzantine domination followed, until the final occupation by the Ottomans. |
