=== By place === ==== Europe ==== * Spring – [[Arnulf, Duke of Bavaria|Arnulf I]] ("the Bad") of [[Duchy of Bavaria|Bavaria]] invades [[Kingdom of Italy (Holy Roman Empire)|Italy]], crossing through the [[South Tyrol|Upper Adige]] (modern [[Tyrol (state)|Tyrol]]). He proceeds towards [[Verona]] to join his supporters. King [[Hugh of Italy|Hugh of Provence]] takes a [[Kingdom of Burgundy|Burgundian]] army against him, and defeats Arnulf at [[Gossolengo]], forcing him to return to Bavaria. * Summer – [[Fatimid Caliphate|Fatimid caliph]] [[al-Qa'im (Fatimid caliph)|al-Qa'im]] dispatches a naval expedition under [[Ya'qub ibn Ishaq al-Tamimi]] to raid the coast of [[Provence]] and [[Liguria]], [[Fatimid sack of Genoa|sacking]] [[Genoa]] on 16 August and attacking [[Pisa]]. Ya'qub also raids [[Corsica]] and [[Sardinia]] before returning to [[Mahdia]] with some 8,000 prisoners.<ref>Steven A. Epstein, ''Genoa and the Genoese, 958–1528''. (The University of North Carolina Press, 1996), p.14.</ref> * [[September 28]] (probable year) – [[Wenceslaus I, Duke of Bohemia]] (the subject of the [[1853]] Christmas carol "[[Good King Wenceslas]]") is murdered by a group of [[Nobility|nobles]] led by his brother [[Boleslaus I, Duke of Bohemia|Boleslaus I]] ("the Cruel"), who succeeds him. * [[Córdoba, Spain|Córdoba]], capital of [[Al-Andalus]], becomes the largest city of the world, taking the lead from [[Baghdad]], capital of the [[Abbasid Caliphate]].<ref>{{Cite web |url=http://geography.about.com/library/weekly/aa011201a.htm |title=Geography at about.com |access-date=March 1, 2006 |archive-date=August 18, 2016 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20160818124242/http://geography.about.com/library/weekly/aa011201a.htm |url-status=dead }}</ref> ==== Africa ==== * Summer – [[Muhammad ibn Tughj al-Ikhshid]] is appointed governor and becomes the ruler of [[Egypt in the Middle Ages|Egypt]] and parts of [[Bilad al-Sham|Syria]] (or the [[Levant]]). He launches a campaign against his rival [[Ahmad ibn Kayghalagh]] by land and sea: the naval forces take [[Tinnis]] and ibn Kayghalagh is forced to retreat. Ibn Tughj enters [[Fustat]], making it his capital, and founds the [[Ikhshidid dynasty]]. * [[Ziri ibn Manad]] is installed as governor of central [[Maghreb]]. He initiates the construction of the fortress of Ashir, near [[Médéa]] (modern [[Algeria]]). It symbolises the rise of the [[Zirid dynasty]] in the Western [[Mediterranean Sea|Mediterranean]] region.<ref>Gilbert Meynier (2010). ''L'Algérie cœur du Maghreb classique. De l'ouverture islamo-arabe au repli (658–1518)''. Paris: La Découverte, p. 43.</ref> ==== Arabian Empire ==== * January – Emir [[Mardavij]], founder of the [[Ziyarid dynasty]], is murdered by his [[Turkic people|Turkish]] slaves. He is succeeded by his brother and general [[Vushmgir]], who is crowned as the new Ziyarid ruler in [[Rey, Iran|Rey]] (modern [[Iran]]). ==== Asia ==== * March – King [[Kyŏn Hwŏn]] of [[Later Baekje]] is overthrown by his eldest son [[Kyŏn Sin-gŏm]] (who is crowned on November 15) and put in prison, but he is able to escape. * November 17 – [[Wang Yanjun]], Emperor Huizong of Min ([[Ten Kingdoms]]), is killed in his own palace in an uprising together with his empress consort and several clansmen, and succeeded as second emperor by his son [[Wang Jipeng]]. * King [[Gyeongsun of Silla|Gyeongsun]], the [[List of monarchs of Korea|last ruler]] of [[Unified Silla]], formally surrenders and abdicates in favour of [[Taejo of Goryeo]]. This completes Taejo's unification of [[Korea]], bringing the [[Silla]] dynasty to an end. * [[Ki no Tsurayuki]] returns to [[Kyoto]] from [[Tosa Province]], a journey that becomes the basis of the earliest surviving Japanese [[poetic diary]], called the ''[[Tosa Nikki]]'' (''Tosa Diary'').
