Antioch fell to the Seljuks about a decade or so after Manzikert, by treachery. WI: It had never fallen. I see a strong Byzantine presence until the death of Manuel Comnenus. But how secure will it be,especially by the time of the 4th Crusade. Antioch was very rich from trade for a time. Do the Venetians try to take it over, or does it remain Byzantine through the crusades?
