Isabella II (Old French: Ysabel; 1212 – May 1228), sometimes called Isabella of Brienne and erroneously Yolanda, was the queen of Jerusalem who reigned from 1212 to 1228. She was the daughter and successor of Maria of Montferrat, who died shortly after giving birth to her. Like her mother, Isabella died young before she could make an impression on politics. Isabella's father, John of Brienne, ruled during her long minority; while he continued to regard himself as king for life, his opponents insisted that he was merely regent for Isabella.
