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.
Images are from Wikipedia.
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.
The last “great” western emperor was majorian (R.457-461) and I’d say the last western emperor was Anthemius (R.467-472)
Domitian reigned before Marcus Aurelius
@Manuel Sacha Marcus Aurelius wasn't the last great emperor. After him there was Aurelian, Diocletian, Constantine and others.
I’m more fascinated by the fact that we have a reasonable idea what most Western Roman emperors looked like because of the statues
I find it interesting how the depictions (assuming the best available are in this clip) rapidly decreased in quality from magnificent marble busts that seemed to capture every wrinkle, to tapestries that look like they were drawn by 9 year olds. Did the talent of the artisans suffer that much?
Russell Rose Yep. With Christianity, it seemed vain to make marble busts, and everything was about iconography; not accuracy.
@@Udontkno7 rome went bankrupt, and the young entitled romans that where living off welfare didn't take up skilled jobs. Once rome was sacked by barbarians many of the great skills to create great works of art was lost. But fortunately thank to christianity, those skills where rediscovered by the church funding artists. Then was born the Renaissance, a new golden age.
@@Udontkno7 that was in the Greek dominated part of the empire, not in the Latin West, where marble busts were still popular but there was no funding anymore for them
photosynthesisprototype it’s not the fault of christianity that marble statues aren’t existent during the late antiquity to the middle ages. It’s purely economic reason.
Oh wait you proclaim yourself as a leftist no wonder you keep on shitting on Christianity and oh fuck take a look at your playlist

3 year kid saying roman is ortho so shameless
All were important
It's fascinating that even though the Roman Empire was far from being largest in the world, it was the only one to ever control the whole Mediterranean and have a lasting influence that shaped the continent and the Western world.
Still the only empire to span continuously across 3 continents. Even the British and Spanish empires only can claim territory in multiple contienes thanks to islands and places far away from their capital city.
@@GiantsRTheBest1 Ottoman empire did pretty much the same, as well as Achaemenid empire, Alexander's legacy, the first 2 Arabian empires... but probably none can have closely the influence of the roman empire had in the world (except the rise of Islam)
@@hanglei9865 The rise of Islam affects only the Middle East. The Renaissance is what really shaped the West and began the rise of the Great Awakening, colonialism, the revolutions.
@@whopsicleturmeric8571 I’d disagree that the rise of Islam only affected the Middle East. There are almost 2 billion Muslims today and more live outside the Middle East than within. Indonesia has the largest Muslim population in the world for instance

Roman Emperor : Sculpture and coin
Byzantine Emperor : Weird painting and coin
dark ages for some reason
@Kostas T what the three have in common is the fact that...they are art. In all of those three you need a big dick size of skill if you want to be really good. And, you can make a very detailed face in a painting therefore on a mosaic as well. Before renaissance the art was so lazy and soulless (if we exclude ancient greece and rome)
It's incredibly sad that Roman art devolved from breathtaking Greek statues to drawings the could have been drawn by today's average 4th grader.
Christianity = dark ages
@@daimonioshellene No, it's not like that...
And yet it is amazing how long this state suffered blows of fate, remaining one of the most powerful powers of that time.
Nothing, no state or religion will ever remain.

This doesn't even count the 700+ years of the Roman Kingdom and only the turning point of the Republic. Two thousand years of culture and history. These past few months, I've really fallen in love with Rome. Absolutely amazing
It’s Imperial era
If you count from the founding of the Roman Kingdom in 700s BC to the fall of the obscure "Principality of Theodoro" Byzantine successor in Crimea in 1480s, (and you don't count Russian Empire as "third Rome"), Rome as a civilization lasted almost TWO THOUSAND and THREE HUNDRED years in a direct line. A concept truly blessed by God.
That's because all of them were separate successor states, The Roman Kingdom is not the Roman Republic and the Roman Republic is not the Roman Empire
@seronymus If we use that logic on the Persians then we would have to concede that they lasted longer than the Romans then lol since they would've lasted over 2,600 years

" Basil II the *Bulgar Slayer* "
Now that's a badass name
After a battle with Bulgarians Basil caught 15 000 prisoners, blinded them all (one out of hundred was left with one eye so they could lead the rest) and sent them back to their king. The Bulgarian king died of stroke when he saw them return.
sounds even more badass in Greek "Basil Bulgaroktonos"
@Basil II of Macedon the Vardaskan slayer not the greeks again and their macedonia paranoia nobody cares let them the name for real nobody cares
do you want to hear something funny? Basil was from macedonian dynasty and was named "Bulgar slayer" yet fyromanians(north macedonia) claims that they're macedonians and at the same time they claim Samuel(Samuil) - the bulgarian king at the time is fyromanian as well and was "their" king.. :D so in their books Samuel and Basil - Bulgarian and Macedonian greek, fought against eachother but they're both fyromanians and part of their history as well..

Imagine being able to travel from London to Jerusalem and still being in the same country, no matter if you were in Syria, Italy, Greece, Egypt, England, France, or Spain, you were in Rome still the whole time.

It would have been the same with Poland and Germany but my Soviet bois got you .
There was a point in time after the Romans where Syria, Egypt, a part of Spain and Egypt were in the same country.
I'm from England. And in the 4th century, Brittonic people in modern day England even called themselves "Romans", historians basically call these people "Romano-Britons". It seems like they considered it one country too in many places, makes sense considering we were a province for over 300 years.

"Every Roman emperor starting from Augustus"
*Begins with Julius Caesar*
Because in all sense, he was an Emperor in all but name. His name, in fact defines 'emperor' itself. Hence the term Kaiser, Tsar, Kayzer and more used by other countries.
He thought himself as more than a dictator. A king. So he wanted to remove the republic and create and empire. The Senate stopped him. But Octavian. His step son or something did it.
Iqbal Bhayangkara he’s not saying he wasn’t a dictator, it’s just that the intro said it started at Augustus, though it clearly started with Caesar
He wasnt a king. He was Caesar, Imperator.
@@iqbalbhayangkara3816 And the same cannot be said for Sulla?
Last ruler of Eastern Roman Empire was also Constantine. Almost poetic
Indeed... the founder of Rome (according to legend) was Romulus and the last Western Roman emperor was Romulus Augustus...
The founder of Constantinople was Constantine which was also the name of the last Eastern Roman emperor!
@@ois999 Augustus was also first Roman Emperor.
There were 11 constantines so its very normal, and even if it wasnt, what does it imply?
@@profeagle2470 it doesn't imply anything. Just an interesting fact. First and last rulers of Western Rome was Augustus. Also first and last rulers of Eastern Rome was Constantine. Strange coincidences
@@ois999 Last Western emperor was Romulus Augustulus, not Augustus. Augustulus is a diminutive form of Augustus.
Majorian is underrated, he reformed empire tax system so it actually earned money, subjugated visigots after their rebellion, same for gauls and almost got rid of vandals (if not bribery he would actually do that) and honestly if he wasn't murdered by his general that though this is best time to take over, when the empire had really powerful and good emperor that was capabale of restoring it maybe Empire would last as long as Byzantium.
Just wait for him to get Aurelian'd and he won't be underrated anymore

Yup I think he should be blamed for the fall off Constantinople,
There are three great emperors who are tragic heroes : Aurelian, Majorian and Heraclius.
•Aurelian saved the empire on the brink of collapse in only 5 years and then was assassinated
•Majorian recovered many lost provinces of the Western empire and made several reforms to bring back the empire on track but then was assassinated by Ricimer.
•Heraclius saved the Eastern empire from Phocas and the Sassanids after almost 30 years of brutal fighting to be finally taken by surprise by the arabs and losing the provinces he just recovered.
Ave Roma !
Im just glad Hercules only lost the Levant. Those Arabs in their fever could’ve taken the Eastern Roman empire down right then and there but it survived for another eight centuries.
Aurelian Restitutor Orbis
Majorian a tragic HERO emperor
Heraclius a respectfully emperor and strategic
If you count roman republic
You can add scipio africanus
f*ckas always will be the worst roman emperor.
The birth of the glorious Roman civilization profoundly influenced almost all western civilization, and its collapse directly contributed to the Enlightenment movement in Europe. I am a Chinese, but I still admire the glory of The Roman civilization, and feel sorry for and miss the eventual disappearance of Rome.
Not only Western but also the Mediterranean. Middle East was also heavily influenced by Roman Empire, it's religion and its custom. Then again, Roman Empire was a culmination of various cultures- Western European, Arab, Greek and even North African.

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
Shut your boring ass up
At least we still have a image of them, Persians do not have images of Persians Kings cause arab muslims destroyed it in the invasion of persia
The Roman coins from the 700s to the late 800s look particularly well made and high quality compared to the previous and following centuries, the characters are readable and the detail was clearly added with care, though not a realistic depiction of the emperors, still a stylistic choice

@@Hugh_Morris Let's not forget that Domitian was a big fan of the Greeks. His idea of an enlightened Despot was heavily taken from Greek thought.
@@claudius_drusus_ Have to mention Julian the Apostate along with the others here. Not a big fan of him, but is worth mentioning when talking about emperors that were passionate about Greek philosophy.
Beards are the norm in ancient history..Rome was different from other nations in that for a very long time they didn't wear beards. Eventually, spending so much time on the frontiers defending their empire they began to conform to the peoples they conquered rather than the other way around.

@@thierryf67 Of course it's meaningful. It clearly shows an empire in rapid decline where resources and skilled artists were becoming very difficult to find. Imperial focus would have been almost entirely on keeping barbarian invaders at bay rather than leisurely pursuits. It was the opening salvo of the dark ages, fifty years or more before the final sack of Rome.
What's even sadder is knowing that the technology was still there they just didn't have the resources to do it
@@ruraladventurer1884 sorry but i don't aggree. it's not so simple. the Empire in the classic time in Rome is not in the same culture and religious context. the Christian rules in the east empire forbid the representations as in Rome. 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.

His invasion of Mesopotamia (modern Iraq) in AD 114 was initially successful, but by 116 the area was racked by revolt, added to which the Jews rose up in revolt in the Middle East. When Hadrian became emperor in 117 he decided against a 'surge' to reconquer Mesopotamia and evacuated the territory. The Romans managed to live in peace with the Parthians for nearly fifty years.

Many have said that their empires would last for a thousand years, yet only the Romans did.
How do you define Empire? Chinese Empire is often defined by dynasty but if Roman Empire were defined by dynasty, It would be mess.
Technically the Chinese lasted more than a thousand years too if you consider all the dynasties as China. But then if we go by this logic then the Persians would have been considered too since they lasted more than a thousand years, but under different names.
Where’s Japan?
The holy Roman Empire of German nation also lasted 1000 years. That was the first (German) Reich/imperium. The second German Reich/Imperium (till ww1 was lost in 1918) was five decades, and Hitler's third (German) Reich/Imperium just 12 years. :D
