trpimir ii of croatia

trpimir ii -lrb- died c. 935 -rrb- was a king of croatia from 928 to 935 .
he was from the house of trpimirović .
trpimir was probably the son of duke muncimir and younger brother of tomislav .
following the death of simeon i of bulgaria , byzantium no longer needed croatia 's military support and repealed its alliance .
previously , byzantium relied heavily on the croats to threaten symeon from the west .
despite the achievements of king tomislav in halting bulgaria 's expansion , byzantium reversed croatia 's supremacy over the theme of dalmatia , which fell once again under its administration .
however , byzantine administration was nominal .
trpimir 's woes did not stop there .
pope leo vi abolished the diocese of nin in 928 and transferred bishop grgur to skradin , in what was seen as a humiliating defeat for pro-slavic proponents in the long running dispute between the split and nin bishoprics .
the `` de administrando imperio '' mentions that in the time of trpimir , croatia had a significant merchant fleet that traded across the entire adriatic sea .
