Henry V. espoused his cause and invaded Hungary. The Germans were unsuccessful; but Coloman thought See also:fit to be reconciled with his kinsman and restored to him his estates. Five years later, however, fearing lest his brother might stand in the way of his See also:heir, the See also:infant See also:prince See also:Stephen, Coloman imprisoned Almos and his son See also:Bela in a monastery and had them blinded. Despite his See also:adoption of these barbarous See also:Byzantine methods, Coloman was a See also:good king and a See also:wise ruler. In See also:foreign affairs he preserved the policy of St Ladislaus by endeavouring to provide Hungary with her greatest need, a suitable seaboard. In 1097 he overthrew See also:- PETER
