Notes
Stuart's "Royalty For Commoners" (334:38) states that he was Duke, then King, of Brittany; Count of Nantes & Vannes.
Per "The Bretons" by Galliou and Jones, the Vikings increased the intensity of their raids upon Brittany following the confusion over succession after the death of King Salomon in 874. In the late 880's Alain offered renewed resistance and defeated a Viking band at Questembert abt 888. This inaugurated a period of remission of the raiding.
