-- Alexius --
was the Byzantine Emporer from 1081 to 1118. The quarter century just
preceeding his reign, from 1056 to 1081, is referred to by Byzantine historians as 'the
time of troubles'. The last emporer of the Macedonian Dynasty, Constantine IX
(d.1055)(RIN 2353), was succeeded for about a year by his sister-in-law, then by a
series of weak and unrelated emporers, one of whom (1057-59) was Alexius' uncle,
Isaac I (RIN 3394*). This weakening of the Empire from within bore the seeds of the
crusader movement in Western Europe. Foreign pressures on all frontiers greatly
reduced the area conrolled by the Empire.
