Abstract

Irene is a historical character who is difficult to describe due to her complex and sometimes obscure character. While she was able to stem the Arab and Bulgarian military power, her reign was tainted by the murder of her only son. The only woman to rise to the status of “Emperor of the Romans”, she was also a saint because she eliminated iconoclasm.
