    1. Marcus Aurelius was a really good emperor… the problem is that his successor was Commodus

      Me when

      Me when my sources about Roman history are Gladiator from Ridley Scott and HBO Rome.

    3. It gets better. Basil II and Justinian are very interesting to read about.

      There can’t be restoration with something being in ruins

      My man stopped reading at the fun part.

      A real good emperor is forged in the fires of the Crisis of the Third Century.

      You’d miss out on Constantine, Stilicho, Justinian, Belisarius, Justinian 2, Basil, Manuel, Konstantinos XI. So much good history is from the Byzantine era.
