After the death of Alboin's successor (574 or 575) the Rule of the Dukes was an interregnum in the Lombard Kingdom (574/5–584/5) during which Italy was ruled by the Lombard dukes of the old Roman provinces and urban centres. Faroald I (died 591 or 592) was the first Duke of Spoleto, which he established during the decade of interregnum. He led the Lombards into the centre of the Italian Peninsula while Zotto led them into the south. In 579 Faroald sacked Classis, the harbour of Ravenna. Between 584 and 588, Classis was retaken by Droctulf.
