Chamiret Coup
Political event
1102CE
The Kingdom of Argolida was taken over by the Chamiret Family.
The former rulers of Argolida, the Argyros Family, were forced out of Argolida by the Chamirets. Taking advantage of the Argyros obsession with the construction of Niton and dwindling resources, the Chamirets were able to hire an army of mercenaries and take over the capitol of Tiryns. The Argyros family was forced into exile, and most went west.
