In 920 BERENGER I, KING OF ITALY (RIN 1470) enlisted Hungarianmercenaries into his army. This caused the magnates of the nortwest torise in defiance.

Shortly thereafter Berengar wasassasinated and Rudolph was recognized as king of Italy until 926, when Hugh of Arles (RIN 3470) became king. At this time in history western Europe was in a perilous position. It wasbeing ravaged by the Vikings from the north and by the Saracens from thesouth. Then, in 919, The Magyars, led by ZOLTAN (RIN 2384), ravaged largeareas of Rudolph's Burgundian lands. In 924 they reached the Rhone andthreatened both Lombardy, which was under Rudolph's control and Provence,which was ruled by Hugh . Rudolph and Hugh were rivals for the throne ofItaly. Facing this common threat, Rudolph and Hugh buried their differences andjoined forces to drive off the Hungarian invaders. An agreement wasreached whereby Hugh was given the kingship of Italy in return forRudolph being made ruler of Provence. The result was that Rudolph was nowking of both Transjuran Burgundy and Provence, thus reviving the old kingdom of Burgundy almost as it had existed in pre- Carolingian times. Only the lands of RICHARD THE JUSTICIAR (RIN 867), which were to become the French duchy of Burgundy, were excluded.
