'''Leo VI''' was co-Emperor of Rome from [[January 6]], 870 until the death of his father [[Basil I]] on [[July 30]], 886, he then ruled as sole Emperor until his death on [[May 11]], 912. Leo VI was very active in codification of Roman law especially in the area of [[Roman marriage law]]. His main "contributions" to Church history were the dismissal of St. [[Photius the Great]] as [[Patriarch]] of Constantinople and instigating the [[Tetragamy schism]].
