  Information about Treaty of Devol
The Treaty of Devol is viewed as typical example of the Byzantine tendency to settle disputes through diplomacy rather than warfare, and was both a result of and a cause for the distrust between the Byzantines and their Western European neighbors.
From Alexius' imperial court, the treaty was witnessed by the sebastos Marinus, Roger son of Dagobert, Peter Aliphas, William of Gand, Richard of the Principate, Geoffrey of Mailli, Hubert son of Raoul, Paul the Roman, the ambassadors Peres and Simon from Hungary, and the ambassadors Basil the Eunuch and Constantine.
The Treaty of Devol never came into effect, but was the legal basis for Byzantine negotiations with the crusaders for the next thirty years, and provided the legal basis for imperial claims to Antioch during the reigns of John II and Manuel I.

 Treaty of Devol   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-07)
The Treaty of Devol was an agreement made between Bohemond I of Antioch and the Byzantine emperor Alexius I in 1108 in the wake of the First Crusade.
Neither copy of the treaty survives, and it is unknown if it was written in Latin, Greek, or both, although both languages are likely given the number of westerners present, many of whom would have known Latin.
The Treaty of Devol seems to have been considered void after Bohemond's death, but Alexius' son John attempted to impose his authority in Antioch, travelling to Antioch himself in 1137 to negotiate a new treaty.

 Treaty of Devol - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Like his father, however, Bohemund was unable to make any significant advances into the Empire; Alexius avoided a pitched battle and Bohemund's siege failed, partly due to a plague among his army.
The specific terms of the treaty were negotiated by the general Nicephorus Bryennius, and were recorded by Nicephorus' wife, Alexius' daughter Anna Comnena:
Bohemund agreed to become a vassal of the emperor, and also of Alexius' son and heir John;

They made treaties with all these tribes, and Crogan returned to Pennsylvania, where he published an account of their wanderings, while Gist followed the Miami River to its mouth, passed down the Ohio, to within fifteen miles of the falls, returning to Virginia, by way of the Kentucky River, and over the Highlands of Kentucky.
By the treaty at Lancaster, Pennsylvania, in 1744, with the Six Nations, and the Logstown treaty, in 1752, with these and some of the Western tribes confirming the previous one, the English claim to the territory embraced in Ohio was founded.
The lands embraced in Hardin County are north of the Greenville treaty line, and west, of the territory acquired from the Indians by the treaty held at Fort Industry (Toledo), in 1805, which is partly included in the Connecticut Western Reserve, erected as Trumbull County in 1800.

Bohemund was released in 1103, but left Tancred as regent again when he went to Italy to raise more troops in 1105.
Upon his return in 1107 he was forced by Alexius I to sign the Treaty of Devol, which would make Antioch a vassal state of the Byzantine Empire upon Bohemund's death; Bohemund had actually promised to return any land that was reconquered when the Crusaders passed through Constantinople in 1097.
Bohemund also fought Aleppo with Baldwin and Joscelin of the County of Edessa; when Baldwin and Joscelin were captured, Tancred became regent in Edessa as well.

 Roman Emperors DIR John II Comnenus, Emperor of Cyprus
John had refused to renew the treaty that his father Alexius had made with the Venetians, no doubt in part due to the fact that Sicily was no longer perceived as a threat.
John laid siege to Antioch, and it soon surrendered, John agreeing to the proposal that Raymond should remain in control of Antioch as the emperor's liegeman, until such time as Aleppo capitulated to their combined armies.
This was effectively a reimposition of the terms of the Treaty of Devol (see Alexius I).

The Persian Gulf War, which saw the introduction of stealth fighter planes (see stealth technology), was the first unambiguously decisive airpower victory in warfare, but even there the conflict was only ended after the ground forces attacked.
Airpower was also used fairly effectively, although with less than immediate results, by the North Atlantic Treaty Organization to force the capitulation of the Yugoslavia (now Serbia and Montenegro) during the Kosovo crisis in 1999.
Fighting in Afghanistan (2001) saw precision-guided smart weapons become the predominant ordnance, but these were often targeted most effectively when the air forces worked in conjunction with spotters on the ground.

 Latin Patriarch of Antioch
The city already had a Greek Patriarch, who was expelled and fled to Constantinople.
The Byzantine Empire was greatly offended by this and worked towards re-establishing either a joint patriarchate or a single Greek patriarchate; the terms of the Treaty of Devol in 1108 nominally restored a Greek patriarch, although this was never enforced.
Under Manuel I Comnenus there was briefly a joint patriarchate when Antioch fell under Byzantine control, but for the most part there was only a Latin patriarch, up until the principality was recaptured by the Mamluks in 1268.
