Bagrat was a son and successor of Adarnase II Kuropalates. Details of his brief rule are not known. The 10th-century Georgian hagiography Vita of Grigol Khandzteli by Giorgi Merchule mentions him as a man of letters and builder of churches. He died without issue, being succeeded by his brother David III.[1]

gollark: Well, it makes it so your code *cannot be* unsafe by default.
gollark: Safety is much more sensible as the default.
