Leon Foka Mlađi
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Lav ili Leon Fokas (grčki: , cca. 915/920 - iza 971) bio je bizantski vojskovođa poznat po nizu pobjeda u ratovima s Arapima na istočnoj granici Carstva. Brat mu je bio znameniti vojskovođa i budući car Nikifor II Foka, za čije je vladavine služio kao glavni ministar. Međutim, pao je u nemilost, te je smijenjen a potom i zatvoren od strane cara Jovana I Cimiskija.
