Smbat IIとは 意味・読み方・使い方

Smbat II King of Armenia (977–990), son of Ashot III and ruled from Ani. He fortified the city and began the construction of the Cathedral of Ani. Smbat II succeeded to Ashot III, and continued his father’s work. He ordered the construction of a wall around the city of Ani and built towers and fortifications, sheltering the city from north to west. During his time also Armenia experienced a period of peace and tranquility, and only the conflict between Smbat II and his uncle Moushegh in Kars disturbed the peace. Another bone of contention arose, however, between the king and the Armenian Church when the king married his own niece, which the church opposed quite strongly.
