Byzantine emperor (r. 1328–1341)
People connected to Andronikos III Palaiologos
Grabbed the Byzantine throne by forcing out his own grandfather in 1328 and held it for thirteen years. Andronikos III spent his reign fighting off Ottoman expansion and internal palace drama—the kind of medieval power struggle that makes modern politics look quaint.
Andronikos III Palaiologos, commonly Latinized as Andronicus III Palaeologus, was the Byzantine emperor from 1328 to 1341. He was the son of Michael IX Palaiologos and Rita of Armenia. He was proclaimed co-emperor in his youth, before 1313, and in April 1321 he rebelled against his grandfather, Andronikos II Palaiologos. He was formally crowned co-emperor in February 1325, before ousting his grandfather outright and becoming sole emperor on 24 May 1328.
