Timeline

  1. 1388–1390Athens · AtticaThe Navarrese Company and the Florentine Neri Acciaioli jointly captured Athens, routing the Catalan garrison. Aragonese sovereignty over Greece became nominal, and the Company lost its core stronghold on the Greek mainland.
  2. 1395–1402Duchy of Athens · GreeceThe Republic of Venice briefly controlled the Duchy of Athens from 1395 to 1402, further dismantling the Catalan administrative network in Greece. After Venice's withdrawal the Acciaioli family consolidated rule, and the Catalan Company's organization effectively ceased to exist.
  3. 1410–1419Aegean Sea · Aegean SeaBy the 1410s the Catalan Grand Company no longer existed as a unified military organization. Remnants returned to Sicily and Iberia or merged into local society; only a few Catalan families, such as the Caupena family on Aegina, still held isolated islands, but no longer as a Company formation.
