Principality of Berat or Muzakaj Principality (1335-1444) was a principality created by despot Andrea II Muzaka in 1335, with its capital Berat. In 1432, Gjergj Arianiti formed a state in Muzakajs possessions, dividing the principality and taking Berat. The principality was united with other Albanian Principalities in the League of Lezhë in 1444.
A chronicle by Gjon Muzaka (John Musachi) after he abandoned Albania and went to Italy, written in 1515 shows many interesting facts about the Muzakaj family and the Principality of Berat. Though, information gathered from the chronicle are considered to be somehow deviated in some occasions. The text is considered to be one of the oldest written by an Albanian.
