Pisa embarks on a campaign against the Moors in the Balearic Islands (Majorca, Minorca, Ibiza, and others).

The grand prince of Kiev Svyatopolk II dies after a 20-year reign and is succeeded by his 60-year-old cousin, a great-grandson of Vladimir the Great who begins a 12-year reign in which he will campaign against the Cumans on the steppe in an unsuccessful effort to reunite the land of Rus. Vladimir II Monomakh has been appointed by the veche (city council) to succeed Svyatopolk and will write works depicting conditions of Russian life.

Construction

King Suryavarman II of Khmer (Cambodia) comes to the throne. His regime sees the beginning of construction of the great temple complex of Angkor Wat, requiring eventually an estimated 350,000,000 m³ (455,000,000 cu yd) of building material transported to the forest site by rafts. The completed temple itself covers over 120 hectares (300 acres) and is part of a much larger temple complex. See also 1105 Construction.
