| | Balash of Persia - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
 | | Balash (in the Greek authors, Balas; the later form of the name Vologases), Sassanian King in 484–488, was the brother and successor of Peroz I of Persia (457–484), who had died in a battle against the Hephthalites (White Huns) who invaded Persia from the east. |
 | | Balash put down the rebellion of his brother Zareh, and is praised as a mild and generous monarch, who made concessions to the Christians. |
 | | But as he did nothing against his enemies, he was, after a reign of four years, deposed and blinded, and his nephew, Kavadh I of Persia (488–531), raised to the throne. |
