  John VII Palaeologus - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
John VII accepted Manuel as emperor, but after Manuel's death he would be succeeded by Andronicus V. In 1399, after a declaration of war from the Turks, Manuel II escaped from Constantinople to ask for military help in western Europe and left John VII as regent to defend the state.
In exchange, John VII received almost all the Turkish-occupied coast on the European side Sea of Marmara, with a special gift: city of Thessalonica on the Aegean Sea, which was given to Manuel II after his return from Europe because the emperor had lost that city when he was previously its provincial governor.
John VII's son Andronicus V died ten years before his father and the crown was inherited by the sons of Manuel II.
