Louis the See also:German, king of the See also:East See also:Franks. In 856 he undertook the See also:defence of the eastern frontier of Bavaria against the Bohemians and Moravians, and won considerable fame in various See also:campaigns.. He married a daughter of Ernest, See also:count of the Bohemian See also:mark, and in See also:conjunction with his See also:father-in-See also:law resisted the authority of his father in 861. For some years he alternated between See also:rebellion and submission to his father, but in 865 an arrangement was made by which he became possessed of Bavaria and See also:Carinthia as his expectant See also:share of the See also:kingdom of Louis. During the troubles between Louis and his two younger sons Carloman remained faithful to his father, and carried on the See also:war with the Moravians so successfully that in 87o their territory was completely under the See also:power of the
Franks; and when See also:peace was made at See also:Forchheim in 874, they recognized the Frankish supremacy. In 875 the See also:emperor Louis II. died, having named his See also:cousin Carloman as his successor in Italy. Carloman crossed the See also:Alps to claim his See also:inheritance, but was cajoled into returning by the king of the See also:West Franks, See also:Charles the Bald. In 876, on his father's See also:death, Carloman became actually king of Bavaria, and after a See also:short See also:campaign against the Moravians he went again to Italy in 877 and was crowned king of the See also:Lombards at See also:Pavia; but his negotiations with See also:Pope See also:John VIII. for the imperial See also:crown were fruitless, and See also:personal illness added to the outbreak of an epidemic in his See also:army compelled him to return to Bavaria. Stricken with See also:paralysis, Carloman was unable to prevent his See also:brother Louis from seizing Bavaria; so making a virtue of See also:necessity, he bequeathed the whole of his lands to Louis. He died on the 22nd of See also:September 88o at bttingen, where he was buried, leaving an illegitimate son, afterwards the emperor See also:Arnulf.
