Heil Stalin
My phone died.

Honorius was told that Rome was lost.
Lmao Avery is officially the most based
And at that moment; Honorius was fucking livid
Why?
Because his chicken was named rome and thought he got lost
Mmm no particular reason......
When he was corrected that the City was lost he was relieved
Spineless emperor.
Bruh
The east was OK basically
Arcadius was weak; but Theodosius II came in and ruled for 50 years
In the West some bloke named Valentinian III came along
He was powerless and controlled by anyone around him
Ended up being convinced to kill his best general; Flavius Aetius
He was assassinated in 455 AD.
His successor wasn’t better and got stoned to death by a mob
A general named Majorian tried his best to recover territory and succeeded
Except in the early 460s, a despot general named Ricimer killed him.
Rome fell in 476 AD shortly after.
The east on the other hand was fine.
Leo I The Thracian and Marcian handled the Huns and barbarians well
Then came along a homie named Zeno in 476
His own brother in law convinced him that his life was in danger and nicked the throne while he was gone.
Basiliscus was killed in 477 in Cappadocia.
Zeno promised to not shed his blood so he left him and his family to die in a cistern.
Zeno ruled until his death in 491?
All was ok; an old emperor came to throne; Anastasius I Dicorus
Anastasius completely filled up the NOW Byzantine treasury
His time came by; and for his successor Justin I
Then came Justinian I
People see him as great; and yeah; sure.
He conquered territory
But he let the Nika Riots go by and drained the treasury
Not amazing, but he was a good emperor overall
His successor Justin II his nephew was a bit insane.
Died after a short reign
