forces Marie of Korikos, regent 1373–1374, widow of Constantine III and Constantine IV; served as regent while delegations were sent to negotiate with prospective new candidates for the kingship Leo V (or VI), 1374–1375, nephew of Constantine II (House of Lusignan) Later claimants Lusignan claimants (1375–1489) The deposed Leo V continued to claim the title "King of Armenia" in exile until his death in 1393. His claims were then inherited by his distant cousin James I (both were great-grandsons of the Cypriot king Hugh III), who ruled as King of Cyprus. From 1393 to the end of the Cypriot kingdom in 1489, the rulers of Cyprus claimed the full title "King of Cyprus, Jerusalem and Armenia". Leo V, 1375–1393, former king of Armenia James I of Cyprus, 1393–1398, distant cousin of Leo V Janus of Cyprus, 1398–1432, son of James I John II of Cyprus, 1432–1458, son of Janus Charlotte of Cyprus, 1458–1464, daughter of John II James II of Cyprus, 1464–1473, son of John II James III of Cyprus, 1473–1474, son of James II Catherine Cornaro, 1474–1489, widow of James II and mother of James III After the fall of the Kingdom of Cyprus in 1489, Catherine Cornaro sold her claims and titles (including her claim to Armenia) to the Republic of Venice, which at times thereafter advanced a shadowy claim to Cilicia or Armenia as a whole. Savoyard claimants (1485–1946) Charlotte, who ruled as Queen of Cyprus 1458–1464, was deposed in 1464 but maintained claims to her dispossessed titles in exile. In 1485, Charlotte ceded her titular claims to her first cousin once removed Charles I, Duke of Savoy. As a consequence of Charlotte's sale, the House of Savoy is often seen as the heirs of the Lusignan kings of Cyprus and Armenian Cilicia. For centuries thereafter, the heads of the family maintained the style "Duke of Savoy and titular King of Cyprus, Jerusalem and Armenia". The title "King of Cyprus, Jerusalem and Armenia" was maintained even after the Savoyard dynasts became kings of Italy, for instance being used by both Victor Emmanuel II and Victor Emmanuel III. Charlotte of Cyprus, 1464–1485, former queen of Cyprus Charles I, Duke of Savoy, 1485–1490, first cousin once removed of Charlotte, ceded titles Charles II, Duke of Savoy, 1490–1496, son of Charles I Philip II, Duke of Savoy, 1496–1497, uncle of Charles I Philibert II, Duke of Savoy, 1497–1504, son of
