Byzantine Empire, Leo VI the Wise, 6 January 870 - 11 May 912 A.D.
Leo VI was a scholar who had little time for foreign affairs, as a result the empire declined. The Bulgars and Arabs became problematic. He completed the legal system started by Basil. He married four times in the quest for a male heir, putting him in conflict with the church. He was eventually barred from attending St. Sophia.BZ98865.
