🚩 This mini-series would not have been possible without the excellent research by Dr. Byron Waldron of University of Sydney. He is an expert on the Crisis of the Third Century and will be releasing a book later this year (2021), titled: "Dynastic Politics in the Age of Diocletian, AD 284-311", so make sure to keep an eye on that.
Good to see that Anthioch didn't age a day since 272 until The first Crusade.
What an emperor
That Palmyrene logo is fire (literally); is there any historical evidence behind it?
Sad ending :'(
Rome had a many list of restorer Emperor, Emperor Majorian also like Aurelian restored the Western Roman Empire with just a mercenary army and a handful of Roman Army, but was betrayed by his general.
