Manuel Komnenos (son of Andronikos I)

  • ... that although he was the oldest son of Byzantine emperor Andronikos I Komnenos, Manuel Komnenos was not named as heir, as he opposed his father's policies? Source: Varzos 1984b p. 518: "Για τον Μανουήλ Κ. 161 μαθαίνομε πως απ' την αρχή που ανέλαβε την εξουσία ο πατέρας του, αντιτάχτηκε στην πολιτική του και πως καθόλου δε συμφωνούσε με τα 'ανομήματά' του" p. 520: "ανάδειξε σε βασιλέα κάτω απ' την ροπή του προαγορεύματος ΑΙΜΑ το δευτερότοκο γιο του Ιωάννη Κ. 162, κι όχι τον πρωτότοκο Μανουήλ Κ. 161, και λόγω του προαγορεύματος αλλά και γιατί αυτός ο δεύτερος αποδοκίμαζε την πολιτική του κια απεχθανόταν τα έργα του."

Hook support sentence needs a citation: Although widely acknowledged as more capable than his brother, Manuel was bypassed due to his opposition, although officially his father justified this choice with following the AIMA prophecy —valereee (talk) 15:59, 17 November 2020 (UTC)

@Valereee: reference added directly after the sentence, and QPQ done. Constantine 08:33, 18 November 2020 (UTC)
