George II of Abkhazia

George II (Georgian: გიორგი II, Giorgi II), of the Leonid dynasty was a king of Abkhazia from 923 to 957 AD. His lengthy reign is regarded as a zenith of cultural flowering and political power of his realm. Despite being independent and locally titled as a mepe (king), he is also regarded as Exousiastes, the title that was conferred upon him by the Byzantines.

George II continued the expansionist policy of his predecessor, primarily aiming at the unification of Georgia. It took him, however, some time to assume full ruling powers as his half-brother Bagrat also claimed the crown.
