Beorhtwulf
Beorhtwulf (, meaning "bright wolf"; also spelled ''Berhtwulf''; died 852) was King of Mercia, a kingdom of Anglo-Saxon England, from 839 or 840 to 852. His ancestry is unknown, though he may have been connected to Beornwulf, who ruled Mercia in the 820s. Almost no coins were issued by Beorhtwulf's predecessor, Wiglaf of Mercia, Wiglaf, but a Mercian coinage was restarted by Beorhtwulf early in his reign, initially with strong similarities to the coins of Æthelwulf of Wessex, and later with independent designs.

Presian I Of Bulgaria
Presian, sometimes enumerated as Presian I () was the khan of First Bulgarian Empire, Bulgaria in 836–852. He ruled during an extensive expansion in Macedonia (region), Macedonia. Origin The composite picture of the Byzantine sources indicates that Presian was the son of Zvinitsa (''Zbēnitzēs''), who was a son of Omurtag of Bulgaria, Omurtag. In several older studies Presian is identified with his short-lived predecessor Malamir of Bulgaria, Malamir and it is assumed that this single character survived until the 850s as the direct predecessor of Boris I. This is very unlikely, as Malamir is attested as having been succeeded by his nephew (the son of his brother Zvinitsa), while Boris I was preceded by his father Presian. Zlatarski resolved the problems in the fragmentary sources by determining that Malamir's unnamed nephew and successor was in fact Presian, and Boris I was the latter's son.
