Years: 685 - 685
The situation in the Eastern provinces of the Empire is stable due to the victoroes of Constantine, whose sixteen-year-old son succeeds him in September 685 as Emperor Justinian II.
After a preliminary strike against the Arabs in Armenia, Justinian manages to augment the sum paid by the Umayyad Caliphs as an annual tribute, and to regain control of part of Cyprus.
The incomes of the provinces of Armenia and Iberia are divided among the two empires.
