king of the See also:district called after him Lotharingia, or See also:Lorraine, was the second son of the See also:emperor See also:Lothair I
.
On his See also:father's See also:death in 855, he received for his See also:kingdom a district lying See also:west of the See also:Rhine, between the See also:North See also:Sea and the See also:Jura mountains, which was called Regnum Lotharii and See also:early in the loth See also:century became known as Lotharingia or Lorraine
.
On the death of his See also:brother See also:Charles in 863 he added some lands See also:south of the Jura to this See also:inheritance, but, except for a few feeble expeditions against the Danish pirates, he seems to have done little for its See also:government or its See also:defence
.
The reign was chiefly occupied by efforts on the See also:part of Lothair to obtain a See also:divorce from his wife Teutberga, a See also:sister of Hucbert, See also:- ABBOT (from the Hebrew ab, a father, through the Syriac abba, Lat. abbas, gen. abbatis, O.E. abbad, fr. late Lat. form abbad-em changed in 13th century under influence of the Lat. form to abbat, used alternatively till the end of the 17th century; Ger.

Louis the See also:German, were inflltepceti Iv his See also:desire to obtain their support to this See also:plan
.
Although quarrels and reconciliations between the three See also:kings followed each other in See also:quick See also:succession, in See also:general it may be said that Louis favoured the divorce, and Charles opposed it, while neither lost sight of the fact that Lothair was without male issue
.
Lothair, whose desire for the divorce was prompted by his See also:affection for a certain Waldrada, put away Teutberga; but Hucbert took up arms on her behalf, and after she had submitted successfully to the See also:ordeal of See also:water, Lothair was compelled to restore her in 858
.
Still pursuing his purpose, he won the support of his brother, the emperor Louis II., by a cession of lands, and obtained the consent of the See also:local See also:clergy to the divorce and to his See also:marriage with Waldrada, which was celebrated in 862
.
A See also:synod of Frankish bishops met at See also:Metz in 863 and confirmed this decision, but Teutberga fled to the See also:court of Charles the Bald, and See also:Pope See also:Nicholas I. declared against the decision of the synod
.
An attack on See also:Rome by the emperor was without result, and in 865 Lothair, convinced that Louis and Charles at their See also:recent See also:- MEETING (from " to meet," to come together, assemble, 0.

meeting had discussed the See also:partition of his kingdom, and threatened with See also:excommunication, again took back his wife
.
Teutberga, however, either from inclination or compulsion, now expressed her desire for a divorce, and Lothair went to See also:Italy to obtain the assent of the new pope See also:Adrian II
