Michael VII Doukas

Michael VII Doukas (c. 1050–c. 1090), nicknamed Parapinakes (minus a quarter) after the coinage devaluation of his reign, was the eldest son of Constantine X Doukas and senior Byzantine emperor from 1071 to 1078.

He left government to his minister Nikephoritzes while the empire lost Bari to Robert Guiscard, faced a Bulgarian revolt, and gave way across Asia Minor after Manzikert. Married to Maria of Alania, he was forced to abdicate in 1078 by Nikephoros Botaneiates, retiring to the Stoudios monastery and later becoming metropolitan of Ephesus.
