"Lordship of Chios"@en . "The Lordship of Chios (Greek: \u0397\u03B3\u03B5\u03BC\u03BF\u03BD\u03AF\u03B1 \u03C4\u03B7\u03C2 \u03A7\u03AF\u03BF\u03C5) was a short-lived autonomous lordship run by the Genoese Zaccaria family. Its core was the eastern Aegean island of Chios, and in its height it encompassed a number of other islands off the shore of Asia Minor. Although theoretically a vassal of the Byzantine Empire, the Zaccaria ruled the island as a practically independent domain from its capture in 1304 until the Byzantines recovered it, with the support of the local Greek population, in 1329."@en . .
