About this person

He acquired extensive estates in the Principality of Achaea, which he administered independently of the absent princes. In 1374 or 1375, he hired mercenaries and captured Megara, a strategically significant fortress within the Catalan-ruled Duchy of Athens. His forces invaded the duchy again in 1385, driving back the Catalans to the Acropolis, which they were ultimately compelled to surrender in 1388.
