	Roman Emperors - DIR Leo III

		Leo III was aided in his defeat of the combined forces of the Arab army, led by Malsama, and the navy led by Sulayman, by the help of the Bulgarian khan Tervel.

	Leo III
		Leo III was Pope at the time of Charlemagne and seems from the first to have resolved to make Charlemagne emperor.

		In 808 Pope Leo wrote in a letter to Charlemagne that, although he himself believed the filoque doctrine to be sound, yet he considered it a mistake to tamper with the wording of the Creed.

	CATHOLIC ENCYCLOPEDIA: Pope Leo X
		A lampoon proclaimed that "Leo X had consumed three pontificates; the treasure of Julius II, the revenues of his own reign, and those of his successor." It is proper, however, to pay full credit to the good qualities of Leo.
		Leo tried, as Nicholas V had formerly done, to increase the treasures of the Vatican Library, and with this object sent emissaries in all directions, even to Scandinavia and the Orient, to discover literary treasures and either obtain them, or borrow them for the purpose of making copies.
		Leo's attitude towards the imperial succession was influenced primarily by his anxiety concerning the power and independence of the Holy See and the so-called freedom of Italy.

		Leo, founder of the Isaurian dynasty, broke another grand siege of Constantinople by the Arabs, then further pursued them, relying on alliances with Bulgars and Khazars.
		However, Leo also introduced the infamous iconoclast controversy - a doctrinary debate over the veneration of icons - which would haunt many levels of public life for more than a century.
		More generally, Leo's decision to subject most of the Balkans to the Patriarch of Constantinople rather than to that of Rome was later to have profound cultural and political consequences.

		The reign of Leo IX is memorable for two reasons: the extensive reforms he implemented within the church and his forceful support of papal supremacy, which led to a formal break with the Eastern Orthodox church in 1054.
		On this occasion Pope Leo III placed a golden crown upon his head and proclaimed him to be emperor of the West, perhaps anointing him with oil to complete the ceremony.
