	Roman Emperors DIR Manuel I Comnenus
		Manuel confirmed John Axuch in the office of Grand Domestic, that is, commander of the army, appointed John of Poutze as procurator of public taxes, grand commissioner and inspector of accounts and John Hagiotheodorites as chancellor.
		Manuel himself supervised the rebuilding of the fortress of Melangeia on the Sangarius river in Bithynia (1145 or 1146).
		Manuel made a hasty truce with his Turkish enemies and demanded that the crusading armies (for a second army, of French under Louis VII was approaching) swear an oath of fealty to him, much in the manner that the partcipants of the First Crusade had sworn allegiance to Alexius I.

	Manuel, I Biography \| Encyclopedia of World Biography
		Manuel's basic policies were to recover the lands in Asia Minor lost to the Turks, to assert control over the crusader states of the Holy Land, to maintain domination of the sub-Danubian Balkans, to recover Byzantine rights and lands in Italy, and to restore the empire's international position.
		The alliance was sealed by Manuel's marriage to Bertha of Sulzbach, sister-in-law of the German emperor Conrad III.
		Manuel's Italian interests were not merely diplomatic, however, for he sought to restore in the peninsula the power of the Byzantines, expelled since the Norman conquest of the south a century earlier.

	Roman Emperors DIR Maria Porphyrogenita
		At the age of eleven years she was betrothed by Manuel to Béla of Hungary, second son of Géza II (1141-1161), who came to be educated in Constantinople in 1163 and was given the rank of despot.
		Manuel therefore concluded a pact with the Hungarian king, István III, in the autumn of 1163.
		Manuel still had no interest in the sons of Byzantine aristocratic families, instead surveying eligible suitors abroad who were either unmarried rulers, or the heirs to thrones.
