Navy Seal: Thanks for including Armenia in your scenario. But WHY Manizkert and who is Landulf VII? He was reigning in Capua, has nothing to do with Armenia. Here is the basic timeline circa 1000 AD:
Armenian Kingdom:
884-890 Reign of Ashot I, Bagratuni dynasty
890-914 Reign of Smbat I
914-929 Reign of Ashot II
916 Cathedral of Aghtamar constructed
950-1000 Grigor Narekatsi, mystical poet and theologian
961 Founding of Ani, capital of Armenia
970-990 Reign of Smbat II
1000 - 1499
985-1001 Construction of Ani Cathedral
