About Gjon Kastrioti II

Gjon II Kastrioti, was an Albanian prince and the son of Gjergj Kastrioti Skanderbeg, the Albanian national hero, and of Andronika Arianiti, daughter of Gjergj Arianiti. He was for a short time Lord of Krujë after his father's death, then Duke of San Pietro in Galatina (1485), Count of Soleto, Signore of Monte Sant'Angelo and San Giovanni Rotondo. In 1495, Ferdinand I of Naples gave him the title of the Signore of Gagliano del Capo and Oria. While in his early teens, he was forced to leave the country after the death of his father in 1468. He is also known for his role in the Albanian Rebellion of 1481–1484, when, after reaching the Albanian coast from Italy and settling in Himara, he led a rebellion against the Ottoman Empire. In June 1481, he supported forces of Ivan Crnojević to successfully recapture Zeta from the Ottomans. He was unable to re-establish the Kastrioti Principality and liberate Albania from the Ottomans, and he retired in Italy after three years of war in 1484.
