How did the Treaty of Devol, which Bohemond was forced to agree to, affect his rule?

  • Gained more land

  • Lost the title of Prince

  • Became a vassal to Byzantium

  • It had no effect

Answer

The Treaty of Devol established Bohemond as a vassal of the Byzantine Empire, signifying a shift in power and authority. This outcome diminished his autonomy and influence, as he was now required to acknowledge the supremacy of the Byzantine emperor. Consequently, Bohemond's rule faced restrictions and limitations imposed by his new vassal status, impacting his ability to exercise independent decision-making and assert his authority as he had done previously.
