General Notes:
Rainulf ble med vanskelighet sin fars etterfølger og regjerte til 890. Han slo i 868 tilbake normannernes angrep på Poitiers. Rainulf ville ikke annerkjenne Eudes og lot seg etter sigende proklamere som konge av Aquitanien av de andre grevene. Alliert med normannerne, han ektet datteren til en av deres anførere, dannet han et parti til gunst for Karl "den Enfoldige". Eudes angrep Poitou, men sluttet fred og anerkjente Rainulf som greve. Senere ble Rainulf forgiftet av Eudes. Hans hustru het muligens Irmgard. Ranulf II of Poitiers (850 - August 5, 890) was Count of Poitiers between 866 and 890. Ranulf became Duke of Aquitaine in 887 and styled himself king of Aquitaine from 888 to his death. Ranulf was son of Ranulf I of Poitiers and Bilichilde of Maine. He married an Ermengarde and by her had a son, Ranulf III, that succeeded him as count of Poitiers. His illegitimate son Ebalus succeeded him in Aquitaine and, in the death of Ranulf III, in Poitiers too.
Noted events in his life were:
• Acceded: Count of Poitou, 867.
• Acceded: Duke of Aquitania, 887.
