Person
Ösung
Ösung was a son of the Tibetan emperor Langdarma whose claim to the throne, disputed by his rival Yumten after Langdarma's death around 842, divided the court and contributed to the collapse of the Tibetan Empire. Through his son Pelkhortsen and grandson Kyide Nyimagon, his line went on to found the dynasties of western Tibet, including the kingdom of Guge.
