The first period of Venetians (1204 –1214 AC) in Corfu & Epirus Seigniory.

The first Venetian domination started in 1204. The Venetians having difficulty supervising all their provinces divided Corfu into feuds. The ten feud lords signed the convention, which the Venetian demanded. The domination lasted 10 years.

Michael Komninos created the Seignory of Epirus and in 1210 conquered Corfu. In 1212 –1214, the founder broke up the relation with the Venetians and relieved the island from them.  After Michael died, the new Seignior Theodore Angelo ordered the supervision of Corfu to the Commissar Ioanni Plyta.  During the turbulent times between the Pope of Rome and Manfrend, the leader of Sicily and the lasts’ death by Charles D’Anjou, Corfiot feuds were given to the brave knights, Thomas and Garnier Aleman or Alamanos. Charles offered to Garnier the supervision of Corfu.  In 1267 AC. Corfu came under the jurisdiction of Anjou of Naples for 1 century.

Charles D’Anjou I, expelled the Orthodox Bishop recognizing the western religion in Corfu. The orthodox part, on the other hand, protested, so Charles compromised. There was also the same feudal form with the kingdom of Naples. The Venetian consul in Corfu took the advantage of the disaffection of the people, planning to overthrow the Angevins. During the civil wars in Naples, the Corfiots, with the aid of the Venetians, managed to take over the Fortress in March of 1386. Venice was the next ruler in Corfu.
