Raymond IV, Count of Tripoli
Raymond IV (died 1199) was the count of Tripoli (1187–1189) and regent of Antioch (1193–1194).
He was the son of Bohemond III of Antioch and Orgueilleuse d'Harenc.
When Raymond III of Tripoli died in 1187 without heirs, he left his county to Raymond, who was his godson.
After two years, Bohemond III desired to keep his heir closer to his Antiochene court and so brought him back and sent his second son, Bohemond IV, as count to Tripoli.
After the elder Bohemond was captured by Leo II of Armenia, Raymond acted as regent until his return.
In 1195, Raymond married Alice of Armenia, Leo II's niece, the daughter of Roupen III, to solidify the peace.
They had one son, Raymond-Roupen, who fought for his inheritance as the eldest grandson of Bohemond III.
Bohemond III of Antioch
Bohemond III of Antioch, also known as Bohemond the Child or the Stammerer (1148–1201), was Prince of Antioch from 1163 to 1201.
He was the elder son of Constance of Antioch and her first husband, Raymond of Poitiers.
Bohemond ascended to the throne after the Antiochene noblemen dethroned his mother with the assistance of Thoros II, Lord of Armenian Cilicia.
He fell into captivity in the Battle of Artah in 1164, but the victorious Nur ad-Din, atabeg of Aleppo released him to avoid coming into conflict with the Byzantine Empire.
Bohemond went to Constantinople to pay homage to Manuel I Komnenos, who persuaded him to install a Greek Orthodox Patriarch in Antioch.
The Latin Patriarch of Antioch, Aimery of Limoges, placed Antioch under interdict.
Bohemond restored Aimery only after the Greek patriarch died during an earthquake in 1170.
Bohemond remained a close ally of the Byzantine Empire.
He fought against Mleh, Lord of Armenian Cilicia, assisting in the restoration of Byzantine rule in the Cilician plain.
He also made alliances with the Muslim rulers of Aleppo and Damascus against Saladin, who had begun to unite the Muslim countries along the borders of the crusader states.
Since Bohemond repudiated his second wife and married an Antiochene lady, Patriarch Aimery excommunicated him in 1180.
Bohemond forced the Armenian rulers of Cilicia to accept his suzerainty in the late 1180s.
He also secured the County of Tripoli for his second son, Bohemond, in 1187.
However, Saladin occupied almost the whole Principality of Antioch in the summer of 1188.
To preserve the peace with Saladin, Bohemond did not provide military assistance to the crusaders during the Third Crusade.
Leo of Cilicia's expansionist policy in the 1190s gave rise to a lasting conflict between Antioch and Cilicia.
Bohemond was captured in 1194 by Leo, who tried to seize Antioch, but the burghers formed a commune and expelled the Armenian soldiers from the town.
Bohemond was released only after he acknowledged Leo's independence.
New conflicts emerged after Bohemond's eldest son, Raymond, died in 1197.
Raymond's widow, who was Leo's niece, gave birth to a posthumous son, Raymond-Roupen, but Bohemond's younger son, Bohemond of Tripoli, wanted to secure his succession in Antioch with the assistance of the commune.
The elderly Bohemond seems to have supported his son during his last years.
The War of the Antiochene Succession began with Bohemond's death and lasted until 1219.

Raymond IV of Pallars Jussà
Raymond IV was the Count of Pallars Jussà from 1047 until his death in 1098.
He was the son and successor of Raymond III and Ermessenda.
His reign was characterised by ceaseless wars and litigations with his cousins Artau I and Artau II of Pallars Sobirà, yet it was transformative in the history of Pallars through the new modes of exercising comital power that Raymond introduced.
The viscounties of Pallars Jussà during the time of Raymond IV were Vilamur, Bellera, and Orcau.
There is a rather large and well- preserved series of records for the reign of Raymond IV largely because he pioneered the use of written conventions for the making of agreements in Pallars.
In this he was helped along by the same scribe who had at times served his father since 1040 and who had worked at the court of his father- in- law Arnau Mir de Tost for some time, Vidal.
