Andronikos I Komnenos
Andronikos I Komnenos lived under the rule of Manuel I Komnenos. He was always faithful to the emperor, but he refused to take an oath of allegiance to the future king Béla III of Hungary, whom Manuel desired to become his successor. He was removed from court, but received the province of Cilicia. Andronikos had even taken Manuel's niece, Eudokia Komnene as a mistress.
