http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Amadeus_VI_of_Savoy:
Amadeus VI (January - March 1, 1383), surnamed the Green Count (Italian: Il Conte Verde) was Count of Savoy from 1343 to 1383.
He was the eldest son of Aimone, Count of Savoy and Yolande of Montferrat. His maternal grandparents were Theodore I, Marquis of Montferrat and Argentina Spinola.
In 1349 Humbert II de La Tour du Pin, Dauphin de Viennois, the last Dauphin de Viennois surrendered his title and principality to the future Charles V of France. At the time the new Dauphin was grandson of current King Philip VI of France and son to his Heir Apparent, the later John II of France. Humbert II retired into a Dominican monastery. Amadeus, angered by this cessation, which had created a formidable neighbour to Savoy, went to war with France, which he defeated in 1354.
In a treaty concluded in Paris in the following year Amadeus agreed to exchange territory in Dauphiné beyond the Rivers Rhone and Guiers, in exchange for recognition as the undisputed sovereign of Faucigny and the county of Gex, as well as becoming the suzerain lord over the Counts of Genevois, all of whose titles had been the subject of earlier contention between the Counts of Savoy and the Dauphins of Viennois. Amadeus also forced the Marquess of Saluzzo to pay him homage, this extending his rule to the Italian side of the Alps.
This made him an important player in the politics of Northern Italy. The Republic of Genoa and the Republic of Venice had for long argued over the ownership of the island of Tenedos in the Aegean Sea. Eventually it was agreed that the Island should be entrusted to the Count of Savoy. Later Amadeus would be persuaded by Pope Clement VII to accompany Louis I of Naples on an expedition to Naples. Here in 1382 the Count would share with Louis in the successful conquests of Abruzzi and Apulia.
Amadeus initiated a minor crusade in 1366 against Murad I of the Ottoman Empire to aid his second cousin, John V Palaiologos, the Byzantine Emperor. The nickname the Green Count refers to his habit of dressing in this colour and appear in state occasions surrounded by green-dressed escort.
In 1381 at Turin, he mediated between Genoa and Venice and sponsored the peace treaty which brought and end to the War of Chioggia and the larger Venetian-Genoese War. He died at Campobasso in 1383.
