Alexander II of Imereti

Alexander II of Imereti

Alexander II (Georgian: ალექსანდრე II, romanized: aleksandre II; died April 1, 1510), of the Bagrationi dynasty, he reigned as the uncrowned King (mepe) of Georgia in 1478 and later as King of Imereti from 1484 to 1510. The son of Bagrat VI of Georgia, Alexander briefly succeeded his father in 1478 during the Georgian Triumvirate War, a dynastic civil conflict that fragmented the Kingdom of Georgia into several independent realms. Deposed by his uncle and rival, Constantine II, Alexander fled to the mountains of northern western Georgia, from where he continued the civil war for several years. In 1484, amid the national turmoil that prevented Constantine from securing his territories, Alexander returned to power and was crowned King of Imereti. Read more on Wikipedia
