The Diet assembled at Aix la Chapelle unanimously Elected Otho to succeed his Father. He deserved the title of Great by the Wisdom of his government, & the splendour of his Conquests. He obliged the Danes to pay him tribute & subdued the Bohemians, requiring both Nations to embrace Christianity. Towards the end of his reign he conquered Italy, & was Crowned Emperor by the Pope. He caused his Son Otho to be Elected & Crowned Emperor, & died in 973.
