Talk:Feodosia

message: Anittas added correct detailes, but not on the topic. Alexader Havras and Isaac Havras were the rulers of the Principality of Theodoro, south-western Crimea. In 1475 Stephen III of Moldavia really helped his brother-in-law, Alexander, to replace Isaac. But these facts are not simpliciter connected with the history of Genoesian Caffa.

replies: text: Well, this is about the city of Caffa, isn't it? Caffa redirects here, so how can it not be on topic? Stephen was married to a Byzantine princess whose father was the ruler of Mangup Kale. He would probably have Stephen inherit his land, or part of his land. Venice and Genoa wanted Stephen to make a coalition with the Tatars against the Ottomans, and for this he needed to secure and gain power in that area (Caffa and Mangup). He sent 500 men to defend the fortress, but that wasn't enough. After Battle of Vaslui, Stephen was too weak to try and defend the fortress, but he still tried. When the two fortresses fell, Stephen was then attacked from two directions: Tatars attacked from north and the Ottomans from the south. The Tatars were destroyed, but the Ottomans would advance, even after lossing 30,000, and gain a victory at the Battle of Valea Alba. Venice and Genoa then tried again to make a coalition, or at least have Stephen to regain the fortresses, but the Pope had no money to send him, so the cause was lost. Forty-thousand people were enslaved from the Principality of Magup and sent to Constantinople. Only one ship made it to Moldavia, where a Greek was captain of. He killed the Turks and drove in to Chilia. I think that adding two sentences explaining the fall of the city is quite important. I don't understand why Ghir must remove everything that I write. I would like the info readded. --Candide, or Optimism 01:14, 14 February 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: Btw, I think that the other name versions should be added to the info, including the Italian version of the name (Caffa or Kaffa). --Candide, or Optimism 10:33, 14 February 2006 (UTC)

text: Although I touched the topic of the Gabrades in various articles in the past, I feel I have to write a separate article for this confusion to cease. --Ghirla | talk 13:35, 14 February 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: Okay, in that case, I apologize. I confused Theodoro to Theodosia. The info should be removed from this article. I know for sure that both Caffa and Mangup-Kale were allies of Moldavia. It would be nice to have a map for these cities. Don, if you have more info on Stephen and his relation to Caffa, and his pretentions to the land, or whatever, feel free to inform me on my talkpage. Thanks. --Candide, or Optimism 14:00, 14 February 2006 (UTC)
thread_title: Alexader, Isac, etc.

message: Feodosia should not be shown as "Country: Russia/Ukraine[1]". The city is part of Crimea, which is part of Ukraine, both legally and under international law. Only Russia and two of its satellite countries recognize Russian rule. Therefore the city should be shown as "Ukraine (under Russian military occupation)".101.98.138.52 (talk) 08:25, 14 May 2015 (UTC)
