ثورة أندرونيقوس الرابع باليولوجوس ضد أبيه عام (1376 م)‎

Abstract EN

Andronicus IV led the two movements of disobedience against his father; the first movement was not a revolution as far as an incomplete rebellion, which ended by depriving him from the participation in the succession of the throne.

While the second movement was a complete revolution that ended by the throne and depriving his father and brother.

Although Andronicus's upheaval enabled him to regain his right to the Byzantine throne, it entangled him in the constant conflict between Genoa and Venice.

This revolt did not only force him to lose the feuding island of Tenedos but also suffered heavy losses to Constantinople and accelerated the loss of Gallipoli in favor of the Turks.
