1233 CE
The Commune of Acre is able to relieve the siege of Beirut, but in John’s absence from Cyprus, the supporters of the Lusignans have taken control.
In any case, Henry I of Cyprus comes of age in the same year, and John’s regency is no longer necessary.
When Henry I succeeds to the throne, both John and Riccardo immediately race back to Cyprus, where on June 15 the imperial forces are defeated in battle.
Henry becomes undisputed king of Cyprus, and since he supports the Ibelins over the Lusignans, John's family remains influential.
