king of See also:Bavaria and See also:Italy, was made See also:margrave of See also:Carinthia about 876, and on his See also:father's See also:death in 88o his dignity and possessions were confirmed by the new king of the See also:east See also:Franks, See also:- LOUIS

Louis III. The failure of legitimate male issue of the later See also:Carolingians gave Arnulf a more important position than otherwise he would have occupied; but he did See also:homage to the emperor See also:Charles the See also:Fat in 882, and spent the next few years in See also:constant warfare with the Slays and the Northmen. In 887, however, Arnulf identified himself with the disgust See also:felt by the Bavarians and others at the incapacity of Charles the Fat. Gathering a large See also:army, he marched to Tribur; Charles abdicated and the Germans recognized Arnulf as their king, a proceeding which L. von See also:Ranke describes as " the first See also:independent See also:action of the See also:German See also:secular See also:world." Arnulf's real authority did not extend far beyond the confines of Bavaria, and he contented himself with a nominal recognition of his supremacy by the See also:kings who sprang up in various parts of the See also:Empire. Having made See also:peace with the Moravians, he gained a See also:great and splendid victory over the Northmen near See also:Louvain in See also:October 891, and in spite of some opposition succeeded in establishing his illegitimate son, Zwentibold, as king of the See also:district afterwards called See also:Lorraine. Invited by See also:Pope See also:Formosus to deliver him from the See also:power of Guido III., See also:duke of See also:Spoleto, who had been crowned emperor, Arnulf went to Italy in 894, but after storming See also:Bergamo andreceiving the homage of some of the nobles at See also:Pavia, he was compelled by desertions from his army to return. The restoration of peace with the Moravians and the death of Guido prepared the way for a more successful expedition in 895 when See also:Rome was stormed by his troops; and Arnulf was crowned emperor by Formosus in See also:February 896. He then set out to establish his authority in Spoleto, but on the way was seized with See also:paralysis. He returned to Bavaria, where he died on the 8th of See also:December 899, and was buried at See also:Regensburg. He See also:left, by his wife Ota, a son Louis surnamed the See also:Child.
