     Irene Doukiana Irene, in full IRENE DUCAS (b. c. 1066--d. 1120, Constantinople), wife of the Byzantine emperor Alexius I Comnenus, known from the description o fher in the Alexiad of their daughter Anna Comnena. When Alexius became emperor in April 1081 he reportedly planned to repudiate Irene and wed Mary, who had been married to the former emperors Michael VII Ducas and Nicephorus III Botaneiates. It was probably fortunate for Alexius that his plan was foiled, for his repudiation of his wife would have incurred the enmity of the powerful Ducas family. Irene was crowned on April 11, 1081, seven days after her husband. In violation of the rights of John, the eldest son of Alexius and Irene,the Empress supported the attempts of her daughter Anna to secure the throne for her second husband, Nicephorus Bryennius. Shortly before his death, the Emperor, aware of the intrigues of his wife and daughter,ordered John to proclaim himself emperor. John had himself crowned in the church of Hagia Sophia and then, with his supporters, occupied the heavily fortified Sacred Palace.

     Alixios Komnenos Angelus III, Byzantine Emporer Alexius III ANGELUS (d. 1211, Nicaea, Nicaean Empire [now Iznik, Tur.]), Byzantine emperor from 1195 to 1203. He was the second son of Andronicus Angelus, grandson of Alexius I. In 1195 he was proclaimed emperor by the troops; he captured his brother, the emperor Isaac II, at Stagira in Macedonia and had him blinded and imprisoned. Crowned in April 1195, Alexius III was a weak and greedy emperor, and his coup d'état had disastrous results. Byzantine prestige declined in the Balkans, where his failure to aid his son-in-law Stephen Prvovencani (Stephen the First-Crowned) caused the latter to turn to the Bulgars for help. Campaigns against the Bulgars ended in defeat (1195 and 1196), and intrigues and diplomacy were equally unsuccessful because the new Bulgarian ruler, Kalojan, acknowledged the pope's supremacy instead of that of Constantinople. In 1203 the crusaders restored Isaac II and his son (crowned Alexius IV). Alexius III fled the capital with what treasure he could collect and escaped to Thrace. After an unsuccessful attempt to recover the throne, he wandered about Greece and surrendered to Boniface of Montferrat, then master of a great part of the Balkan Peninsula, but left his protection and sought shelter with Michael I, despot of Epirus. Finally, he went to Asia Minor, where his son-in-law Theodore Lascaris was holding his own against the Latins. Alexius, joined by the Sultan of Iconium (modern Konya, Tur.), demanded Theodore's crown and, when it was refused, marched against him. Taken prisoner by Theodore in 1211, Alexius was sent to a monastery at Nicaea, where he died. He was born after 1155. He was the son of Andronicus Doukas Angelos and Euphrosyne Doukaina Castamonita.
