	House Of Savoy - LoveToKnow 1911 (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-20)
		After the collapse of that monarchy its territories passed to the German kings, and Savoy was divided between the counts of Provence, of Albon, of Gex, of Bresse, of the Genevois, of Maurienne, the lords of Habsburg, of Zahringen, andc., and several prelates.
		When Amadeus succeeded to the throne these were divided into the county of Savoy (his own territory), the princi pality of Piedmont ruled by his nephew Philip, prince of Achaea (a title acquired through his wife, Isabella of Villehardouin, heiress of Achaea and the Morea), and Vaud ruled by his brother Louis.
		Savoy French became a French province, and, although the Pied montese troops resisted bravely for four years in the face of continual defeats, Victor at last gave up the struggle as hopeless, signed the armistice of Cherasco, and died soon afterwards (1796).

		Amadeus IX does not seem to have been influenced by the waywardness of his grandparent.

	Cyprus History: Lusignan Period - Charlotte, Queen of Cyprus, Jerusalem and Armenia
		She managed to persuade her half-brother Archbishop Jacques to kill a royal chamberlain said to have been implicated in death of her husband John, who had incurred the enmity of Queen Helena and died in mysterious circumstances, though most likely poisoned.
		Charlotte died (1487) bequeathing sovereignty of Cyprus to Savoy.
		It is not clear, however, whether her husband was Louis, Duke of Savoy (1440-1465) and therefore mother of Amadeus IX, Duke of Savoy, but considering her bequest of Cyprus to Savoy, this is a possible deduction.
