	Manuel I. und Bertha von Sulzbach
		von Sulzbach, ihre Schwester Gertrud heiratete Konrad III.
		Die Tatsache, dass sich Bertha nun schon seit geraumer Zeit sozusagen in “Wartestellung” befand, sie kam ja schon 1142 nach Konstantinopel und wartete nun schon drei Jahre, bedeutete eine Demütigung Berthas und ihres Adoptivvaters Konrad.
		Auf dem Rückweg trafen die beiden Herrscher wieder zusammen, und ihr Treffen endete 1148 in Thessalonike mit einer Bekräftigung des 1145 vereinbarten Bündnisses, was oftmals fälschlicherweise in der Wissenschaft als “Vertrag” bezeichnet wurde.

		John Contostephanus, the chief dragoman (interpreter) Theophylact, and the acolouthos of the Varangian Guard Basil Camateros were sent to Jerusalem to seek a new wife, and the two princesses Maria of Antioch and Melisende of Tripoli, daughter of Raymond II of Tripoli and Hodierna of Tripoli, were offered as candidates.
		Meanwhile, an imperial embassy led by Alexius Bryennius Comnenus and the prefect of Constantinople, John Camaterus, came to Antioch to negotiate the marriage.

	Roman Emperors DIR Manuel I Comnenus
		John negotiated a marriage contract for Manuel with Conrad III of Germany; he was to marry Bertha of Sulzbach.
		Conrad in the meantime convalesced in Constantinople throughout the winter of 1147-1148, being treated to a variety of amusements.

	Roman Emperors DIR John II Comnenus, Emperor of Cyprus
		With King Conrad III, Lothair's successor, John negotiated a marriage alliance: Conrad's sister-in-law Bertha of Sulzbach was to marry Manuel.
		We have seen how John was more interested in the eastern than western theatre of operations, and it is a reasonable hypothesis that this alliance with the German emperor was designed to keep Roger occupied while John marched east.
		With the rise of Roger II Guiscard of Sicily, who took much of southern Italy, John had supported the campaign of the German emperor Lothair II of Supplinburg.

		His liaison with Theodora was so well established that his wife, Empress Bertha of Sulzbach (called Eirene in Byzantine sources), was completely disregarded at court; her power was restricted to charitable deeds and to the education of her daughter.

		Bertha-Eirene was noted for shunning the frivolity of the luxurious Byzantine court; Basil of Ochrid, the archbishop of Thessalonica, praised her for her modesty and piety.

		Manuel delayed marrying her for three years, until shortly after Epiphany 1146, at which point she became empress and was renamed "Eirene".
