9 Jun 797 Jahr - Irene of Athens officially
becomes Byzantine empress
Beschreibung:
Having murdered her son, Irene of Athens —who actually ruled from 780 onward—officially becomes Byzantine empress, the only woman ruler in the empire's eleven-hundred-year history. It is partly in reaction to Irene that the pope later crowns Charlemagne emperor of Western Europe.
