jan 1, 922 - Ashot II assumes the title of "king of kings"

Iron determination and attentive diplomatic skill were needed to secure the continued existence of the kingdom and it was 922 before the Bagratid king, Ashot II, was able to assume the title "king of kings," asserting his paramountcy over the other Caucasian monarchs. A glittering century followed, when live and love blossomed amid the fertile Armenian uplands, when art and poetry flowed like wine. The Bagratid capital Ani developed tremendously.
