Gunthamund
(Around 450-496) Vandal king (484-496).
Gunthamund's reign was quite successful, much because of wars being found between potential contenders to the Vandals.
He removed many of the harsh regulations on the Roman Catholics Huneric had imposed. This helped create stability in the kingdom.
