Levan IV Dadiani

Lipartiani became the de facto ruler of the principality, reducing Levan IV's power to insignificance.

Levan first fled to Kartli in eastern Georgia and then retired to the Ottoman capital of Constantinople, where he died in 1694.

[2][1] Levan Dadiani was married to Princess Tinatin (1678–1760), daughter of King Bagrat V of Imereti.

She became a nun in 1704 under the name of Nino and arrived in Russia in the suite of the exiled king Vakhtang VI of Kartli in 1724.

[1] Levan had a natural son, Giorgi Dadiani (1683 – 12 June 1765), who emigrated, in 1700, to Russia, where he became known as Prince Yegor Dadian and attained to the rank of major-general.
