Events

Europe

  • War of the Lombards: Lombard forces at Kyrenia surrender to John of Beirut, after a 10-month siege. The defenders, with their personal belongings, are allowed to retire to Tyre. Captured prisoners are exchanged for those held by Richard Filangieri, commander of the Lombards, at Tyre. Cyprus is wholly restored under the rule of the 16-year-old King Henry I (the Fat). His vassals are rewarded, and loans that they have made are repaid.[1]
  • August 20 Oath of Bereg: King Andrew II of Hungary vowed to the Holy See that he would not employ Jews and Muslims to administer royal revenues, which causes diplomatic complaints and ecclesiastical censures.[2]
  • Winter Reconquista: King Ferdinand III (the Saint) conquers the cities of Trujillo and Úbeda. The Castilian army besieges the city of Peniscola. Ferdinand forces Ibn Hud, ruler of the Taifa of Zaragoza, to sign a truce.[3]

Mongol Empire

  • May 29 Mongol–Jin War: The Mongol army led by Ögedei Khan captures Kaifeng, capital of the Jin Dynasty (Great Jin), after a 13-month siege (see Siege of Kaifeng).
