Abas I of Armenia

Abas apparently never attempted to reconquer Dvin or expand his kingdom, instead focusing on developing and protecting his capital of Kars.

[2] Conflict with the Arabs was minimal too, with the exception of a military defeat Abas suffered near the holy city of Vagharshapat.

[3] However, the Byzantine emperor Romanos I Lekapenos was more focused on fighting the Arab Hamdanids, leaving Abas's kingdom in peace.

[2] After its construction, Abas confronted an invasion by a certain Prince Ber of Abkhazia (whose identity remains unknown), who sought to consecrate the church under the Chalcedonian rite.

[2] It was either during Abas's reign or that of his successor that the patriarchal seat of the Armenian church finally returned to Bagratid territory when Catholicos Ananias I moved from Aghtamar in the Kingdom of Vaspurakan to Argina.
