oh oh

so you're talking about the period when Manuel Doukas ruled the despotate of Epirus after Theodore was captured? I suppose you could call it 'vassalage' but it's a really roundabout way to claim this whole control of Salonica

especially since Manuel was expelled soon after

there's a good possibility that Salonica could have been under Bulgarian control today. as a Greek, I'm glad that didn't happen especially considering its history but it was close

I just know that tzar Ivan Asen II gave it to his son in law, and it was the capital of a vassal state for a decade or so.
Not sure vassal is even right, since he was his son, they were a family and so on.
I mean, do you say "my father's house" or "my house"?

But yeah, it wasn't a bulgarian city, it has never been. You just claimed that it wasn't captured by bulgarians, when in fact it was, and they installed a puppet there.
Historically bulgarian rulers have installed their own guys in Constantinople too, and one of the earliest international laws was the emperor of the Eastern Roman Empire making a deal with Tervel to stop supporting rebel kings.

VOULGAROI ZWA AHAHAHAH
