	Wikipedia: Arpos
		Arpos was a metropolitan see of the Roman Catholic Church from the time of Emperor Manuel I Comnenus (ruled 1143 - 1180) called Theodosiopolis.
		Either Theodosius I or Theodosius II had attempted to rename Arpos Theodosiopolis, but only the Catholic Church seems to have adopted the name for any length of time.
		After the capture of Constantinople during the Fourth Crusade the city of Arpos was alternately held by Tsar Kaloyan of Bulgaria and the Crusaders.

		The Diocese of Theodosiopolis (Erzerum) was re-established in 1850 and on 10 July, 1883, divided into the Dioceses of Erzerum and Mush.
