Nikephoros became emperor after a revolt against Michael VII Doukas, whom Nikephoros sent to a monastery. Nikephoros then married Michael's wife, Mary of Alania. Faced with multiple revolts and unable to halt the continuing debasement of the gold coinage, Nikephoros abdicated to the successful general Alexios Komnenos in 1081 and retired to a monastery, where he later died. |
