Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online. Empress Maria (c. 1050 – after 1103) was a daughter of the Georgian king Bagrat IV of the Bagrationi (1027–1072) and spouse of the Byzantine Emperor Michael VII Doukas and later also Nikephoros III Botaneiates. She is frequently known as Maria of Alania in apparent confusion with her mother Borena of Alania, the second wife of Bagrat of Georgia. Born princess Martha of Georgia, she was sent to Constantinople to be brought up and educated under the patronage of the Empress Theodora in 1056. The latter, however, died the same year and Martha returned home. She married in 1065 Michael, a son of Constantine X Doukas and the future emperor. In 1078, a palace coup ousted Michael and enthroned Nikephoros III Botaneiates. Maria agreed to marry the new emperor provided her son, Constantine Doukas, would be declared an heir apparent. Nikephoros subsequently violated his promise, and the empress became involved in a plot organized by the general Alexios Komnenos who was rumored to be her lover. Alexios forced Nikephoros to abdicate the throne and was himself crowned emperor in 1081.
