Council of Ruisi-Urbnisi
The Council of Ruisi-Urbnisi was a church council held in 1103 in Georgia, called by King David IV. It removed hostile bishops tied to the great nobles, restored church discipline and condemned the Monophysite doctrine, affirming Georgian Orthodoxy. It strengthened the crown's control over the church and was part of David IV's reforms to centralise the kingdom.
