Wrong Redirect

[edit]

The Battle of Klokotnitsa of 1230 is obviously not the Battle of Adrianople of 1205 and they should be divided. When I enter "Battle of Klokotnitsa" in the internal wiki search engine, I get redirected here. --TodorBozhinov 10:48, 14 August 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Rewrite needed

[edit]

The article uses only this source: http://www.fordham.edu/halsall/basis/villehardouin.html which gives us only one perspective of the battle and since it is written by a medieval crusader it can cause enourmous confusion.

Changed to Bulgarian Emmpire

[edit]

Changed Bulgaria to Bulgarian Empire as since the Latin Empire is reffered to with its proper political name the same should be done for the Bulgarian Empire in order to maintain the consistency of the article. At the time of the battle Kaloyan was fully recognized as an Emperor (ref. see the articcle Kaloyan and check the recongition of his title) which seriously implies that any refferals to the Bulgarian state should be done to as Bulgarian Empire. Refferals to Kaloyan after his recognition by the Byzantians as an Emperor should either be as "Tzar" or "Emperor".

What does this bit mean?

[edit]

'Only a year after the battle of Adrianople, a devastating blow was dealt to the Latin Empire, a wound that would lead to its ultimate demise. ' What was this blow? Given the Latin Empire lasted a further 56 years, the demise wasn't all that quick. Also no citation. Guthrum (talk) 01:33, 16 December 2019 (UTC)[reply]
