Alexander Komnenos Asen ( el, Αλέξανδρος Κομνηνός Ασέν; bg, Александър Комнин Асен) was the son of
Despot John Komnenos Asen and nephew of Emperor
Ivan Alexander of Bulgaria and Empress
Helena of Serbia.
Alexander Komnenos was ''
Sebastos of
Valona'' and ''Lord of
Kanine and
Valona'' which he succeeded from his father John (alternatively ''Ivan'') Komnenos. He did not succeed the nearby city of
Belgrad which was taken from his father by
Simeon Uroš. Alexander's rule was characterized by extensive trade with both the
Republic of Venice and the
Republic of Ragusa.
It is speculated that he died on 26 September 1371 at the
Battle of Maritsa due to the fact that in 1372 his lands were in possession of his father-in-law
Balša II.
