After acceding to the throne, Pip spent two years fighting Leuradic invasions. He won a decisive victory in the Battle of Tuskinay in 971 and made an agreement with the Luradans, creating what was known as the Tusk in the South of Staynnica. A year later he led an invasion against the Kingdom of Luradia, becoming the dominant ruler. He became the King of the Staynish in 972. Details of his life are described in a work by 9th-century Jubliak scholar and bishop Amader. |
