Beschreibung
969 AD. - Despite being the rightful heir to the throne, the prospects for Basil are not the best. Complicit in the maneuvers of his mother Teophano, wife, mother and creator of emperors, his childhood years are spent in the shadows.
The situation will not change even after his ascension, due to the intrusions of his great-uncle and grand chamberlain Basil Lecapenus.
Only after ridding himself of these encroaching influences will Basil succeed in fulfilling his destiny, becoming one of the best Byzantine emperors ever as well as the longest-ruling among all.
In his forty-nine-year reign he will will change the face of the Eastern Empire, thanks to far-sighted laws and countless wars won.
It will be only one of these, however, that will make his life a legend to be handed down to posterity.
The legend of the basileus Basil II, known as the Bulgar Slayer. The exterminator of Bulgarians.
