Emperor Alexios I Komnenos, in an attempt …
Years: 1105 - 1105
Emperor Alexios I Komnenos, in an attempt to prevent an alliance between Coloman and Bohemond I of Antioch, had in 1104 or 1105 arranged a marriage between his son and heir, John, and Coloman's cousin, Piroska.
Coloman in 1105 invades Dalmatia.
According to the Life of the blessed John of Trogir, Coloman personally commanded his troops besieging Zadar, the most influential among the Dalmatian towns.
The siege lasts until Bishop John of Trogir negotiates a treaty between the king and the citizens, who accept Coloman's suzerainty.
