Timeline of the Roman and Byzantine Emperors

Rome. The state that turned from tiny settlements around the Palatine Hill in central Italy into a vast empire that ruled most of western europe and mediteranean for centuries and formed the framework for todays states.
Let us get into a journey through time, from Augustus, the first emperor of Rome, to the final ruler of the Byzantine Empire. Along the way, we'll encounter both great and terrible emperors, and witness golden and tumultuous ages.
The map shows the territory controlled by the emperor at the end of his reign.
When two or more emperors ruled jointly, it is indicated by a white line between their names.

    I find it bizarre that the last western Roman Emperor was named Romulus Augustulus and the last for the east was Constantine. It's like they knew the end was near and wanted to bring it back full circle.

    The last western emperor was actually Julius Nepos, after his title was usurped by Romulus's Dad he became the ruler of Dalmatia and after 476 until his assassination in 480 the last western roman emperor recognized by the east.

    @@eid8fkebe7f27ejdjdjduyhsvqhwu2 I'd say Valentinian III was the last "real" emperor in the west. He was the last emperor in the west to actually have at least a small amount of true authority over (what was left of) the empire. After Valentinian III, each subsequent emperor is nothing more than the puppet of a powerful barbarian warlord who has usurped all power in the western empire. Majorian and Anthemius may have been competent and both definitely had the spirit of true Roman emperors, but they were still nothing more than puppets who were disposed of by their master when he no longer had a use for them. Augustulus and Nepos were even more powerless than the puppets before them. There was no western empire when those two were "emperor." Its name was just being kept alive by puppet masters who were working out how to dispose of its already dead corpse without pissing off the eastern empire too much, hence the real power in the west (Odoacer) minting coins with Nepos's head on them to appease the eastern empire and give the impression that the west still existed when it didn't.

    This timeline is also interesting because you can see how the culture and the art in the country regressed. During the republic era the statues were made with precision and dignity. Coins also were pieces of art. But then the techniques become lost and people don't have a desire to create. You can see fewer statues during the Byzantium era. And the quality of the coins gets worse and worse as well

The representations rules must not be the same as in the pagan society, that's only a religious representation of the spirit of the monarch, who is ruling in the name of God. Religious icons are only allowed, and must not be figurative. That's the opposite of the Roman art. it's not a matter of ressources, if you see the marvellous architecture as St Sophia... and its decoration, with gold and precious stones, they can find the ressources for their god.

    This is the story of how the dream of roman empire was lost Rome was lost in 476 The empire was lost in 1204 The dream was lost in 1453 edit. i see that there has been quite a bit of discussion and want to clarfiy what i mean by the comment. The city of rome was lost in the year 476 and even though it was later recovered by the byzantines, it never again became center of culture and power of rome that it had been for the most part of the empires history. In 1204 the crusaders seized constantinople, effectively ending any byzantine influence outside greece and anatolia. I chose 1204 over 1071, because after 1071 the byzantines managed to recover almost half of anatolia under the komnenian restoration. After 1204 they could barely control the anatolian coast and never ruled all of greece. 1453 is pretty self-explanatory, in that year the remains of the once mighty roman empire were conquered by the ottoman turks. After 1453 nobody claimed to be rome in any other than spiritual sense.

Here is the list of Roman Emperors 🤴 of Illyrian origin (🇦🇱): - Justinian I - Justin I - Anastasius I - Marcianus - Valentinian II - Gratian - Valens - Valentinian I - Jovian - Constantius II - Constantine the Great - Maximianus "Herculius - Diocletian - Probus - Aurelian - Quintillus - Claudius II "Gothicus - Hostilianus - Decius Source: The Grand Strategy of the Roman Empire: From the First Century A.D. to the Third by Edward N. Luttwak, page 178, "high-grade cavalry (equites Illyriciani)" This region was late Romanized. It was famous for its excellent soldiers, frustrated but courageous. In Illyria (in the geographical sense) was indeed the most powerful of the Roman armies, in charge of watching over the Danube (nearly 12 legions, that is to say 130 000 men) .

Now, Asia Minor is home of the Turks, and not of Greeks and Armenians once living in Pontus and the Aegean coastline, who were forced to mainland Greece and Armenia. Ottoman Empire also drew parallels from the Roman Empire, in terms of politics and administration. If you call the Ottoman Empire best empire, you essentially claim that the Eastern Roman Empire is also the best, since most of the policies were associated from the previous empire.
