Joint rule with Constantine (his son), 25 December 813 - 25 December 820 A.D. Leo V the Armenian replaced Michael I as emperor and attempted to restore some of the lost glory of the Byzantine Empire. His real goal was to restore iconoclasm, but he had few supporters for this idea. He took to persecution to enforce his goals, leading to his assassination on Christmas day in the church of St. Sophia.
