Leo of Armenia had joined the crusaders …
Years: 1199 - 1199
Leo of Armenia had joined the crusaders at Cyprus and Acre.
Desirous of a royal crown, he has continued to approach both Pope and Emperor, and on January 6, 1999, with papal approval, Archbishop Konrad I von Wittelsbach of Mainz bestows royal insignia in the Church of Holy Wisdom at Tarsus.
Nominally an Imperial vassal, he soon abandons any acknowledgment of fealty.
At the same time, the Armenian Church officially accepts a union with Rome, which, however, will never be popular with the lower clergy and general populace.
