Roman Emperors Portrayed in Memes - Part 2

‘Theodosius II - spent most of his time in prayers’ Yeah if I was emperor at that time, between the constant assassination plots and the empire falling apart, I’d probably try see if that worked too

[@bogdan3386]

The main thing that probably kept him in power was the fact that he was "adopted" by the Sassanian king so nobody would've been dumb enough to risk a war with Persia (not like there wasn't a conflicting between Rome and Persia during Theodosius II)

[@AdriatheBwitch]

He was forced to do nothing by Aspur thoughts which is why he was in pwoer for so long, but he didnt do nothing he did no wars on his own but he did issue a cod of law and made some schools and attended reigious matters thats that he was lot better than Honorius even if he was forced todo nothing Honorius wasnt forced to do nothing even Arcadius have more execuses than Honorius since Arcadius did nothing for real but he was ill af and died from illiness and depsit being ill af he still managed to make his son theodosius have good regents like his Praetorian prefect anthemius who built the theodosian walls in honor of theodosius II, wall that will protect the empire for 1000y

[@darrynmurphy2038]

@@AdriatheBwitch Interesting, I didn't actually know about the code of laws. I disagree with you in making excuses for him by blaming Aspar though. Leo I, a former butcher raised to the throne as a puppet of Aspar, was able to build alliances, assassinate Aspar, and assert himself as an emperor. If a lowborn puppet emperor had the ability to do that, then clearly an emperor born and raised in the purple could've as well. The only difference between Theodosius and Leo, was that Leo was far more intelligent and able, and so Theodosius' lack of action is entirely his own fault.

[@AdriatheBwitch]

@@darrynmurphy2038 What are you taking about, it have nothing to do about being a low born or a purple born, Marcian was also a low born and he did completly nothing agaisnt Aspur too, the biggest difference is that Yheodosius was raised to be a gnelte scholar and palace eperor who wont dirt his hands while Leo I was from the fucking army so he clearly killed ppl already and knew what it had to take to dirty his hand, Theodosius was always rised to be a good guy who just pray and let others do the jobs he was raised by his own sister who was herself a faitfull chirstians and christians are forbodden to kill or do bad things its why, its not a quesiton low born or purple born its quesiton of experience, you are compaering 2 completly different persons

[@darrynmurphy2038]

@@AdriatheBwitch That's my point entirely, they were two totally different people. Arguing that he accomplished nothing due to Aspar's grip on power is beyond the point. Even if Aspar hadn't restricted his rule, he would've still grown up to be a useless emperor who was a mere pawn of far more ambitious men

[@AdriatheBwitch]

@@darrynmurphy2038 Well, maybe not, its not easy to know, i mean, maybe he wouldnt have been despoeed or soemthing by someone whowanted the power, maybe usurpers or the peopl revolting, aspur was i think also making sure that he stay alive since he was easy manipulated, but he was too young also, i mean dont forget that aspur was also capable exile peopl like arcadius's wife, but you have a point about that he wasnt ment to rule IN THAT TIME in a more prosperous time he would have done better, he still did stuff as i said, he was a palace emperor but it wasnt what the empire needed at this time

You gotta respect the fact that despite the fact Rome was basically FUBAR at that point. He still made a conceded effort to try and at least preserve what remained. Like he could've and would've been fully justified in collecting what wealth he could buying some nice estate with servants to tend his every need far away from any form of danger after his already successful military career. Yet he choose to become emperor and try one more time to save Rome. And ultimately was killed by his own people in the attempt, truly symbolic of both Rome's and humanities problems.

[@lugiasreturn1247]

@@theempiredidnothingwrong3227 Majorian wasn't the last one to try to save rome in general. glycerius got some lost territory from the east of italy and nepos from the west. However, it can be easily said that majorian's possible survival as an emperor would help western rome survive for longer than it would with glycerius or nepos remaining as emperor in italy, and in fact, people from the roman empire were already abandoning it to have their estates and pro-medieval castles ever since the reign of emperor diocletian, so at least majorian didn't follow that path.

Being fair with Gratian, I think he really tried to appear at Adrianople, but germanic raids on Gallia and Raetia prevented it. Nevertheless, a Western general whose name I don't remember was there with some reinforcements if I recall correctly. Valentinian III is pure shit as Justinian, jealous and afraid of their best commanders talent and fame, which eventually led to further losses. Great video, I love it. Please, carry on with Eastern Empire emperors. Basil II and other characters such as Belisarius deserve their own videos as Aurelian.

[@bogdan3386]

Also idk why people praise Theodora so much. Yeah, she kept the empire together while Justinian was sick but they ignore the fact that she screwed other possible candidates for succession like Justin and Germanos and ended up with the other Justin. Overly sarcastic and Extra credits praised her as this amazing woman but they didn't mention at all that she in the long term ruined the Empire by allowing a moron like Justin II to come to the throne. When it comes to Justinian some of his campaigns can be justified. The Vandal kingdom was a threat because of piracy and in the case of Italy the timing to start a war was almost perfect but they needed to consolidate Africa first. What I can't defend is putting Narses in charge of Mundus army after his death and let him argue with with Belisarius. If Justinian was so afraid of Belisarius at that point he could've put Narses in charge because he was a eunuch anyway and also a competent commander and I think Belisarius would've been okay to pass the command to Narses after taking Rome back. When it comes to his campaigns in Iberia those wars were a waste of time, resources and manpower for a piece of land which could've been accessed only by sea for the Romans. Also I'm still mad at overly sarcastic for their video on thr fall of Rome for not mentioning Aurelian who pretty much saved the empire from turning into something similar to 3 kingdoms China and allowed emperors like Diocletian and Constantine to even gain power, not to metion that their reforms were influenced by reforms made by Aurelian

[@vynonyoutube1418]

@@bogdan3386 afaik it's actually Galienus that was the first to kickstart the shift to the Dominate as we know it, with a higher focus on cavalry, moving his headquarters away from Rome, forbidding senators to command armies and delegating power so that the empire could defend itself better. Aurelian served under Gallienus as well (and, in turn, Diocletian served under Aurelian), so there was likely some inspiration from him, despite the fact that Galienus was remembered by contemporaries as a shitty emperor (which was discovered by modern historians to not be the case, considering his rather useful reforms and the shit he had to put up with)

[@lugiasreturn1247]

Justinian was actually a fairly decent guy, because he hired Belisarius in the first place, and his wife Theodora would be the one who actually fired Belisarius. After that, Justinian was even able to temporarily allow Belisarius back from retirement to deal with invasion, which he crushed successfully. Not all of his choices were good tho, because while I would say regaining the west was an accomplishment, he probably should've stayed to the east a bit more so he can at least have more money left over after regaining the west. Him also leaving many things to Theodora was also a mistake, as while Theodora was at least somewhat competent, she was over paranoid of possible rivals to Justinian. Same can't be said with Valentinian III, who treated what few competent officials like shit, and fell for a lie that Aetius was gonna kill him, by a guy who's wife got raped by Valentinian (Petronius Maximus), and he was actually dumb enough to let two of Aetius' allies guard him at Rome, where he was killed. Justinian was decently okay, but Valentinian III was, to my knowledge, the worst and least intelligent roman emperor of all time.

[@AdriatheBwitch]

Valens didnt wait for him to apear thats the main difference here, Valens was an old proud guy who didnt want his nephew to have all the honors of apearing and savin the day, it was told to him to wait untill Gratian arrive, but he didnt which for me put all the blame on Valens and not Gratian who did good Also Gratian fixed the mess left by Valens, because yes it is also Valens fault if the goth crossed in the first place he didnt managed them well and his official were corrupted and treated the goth like garbage which made the goth revolt, and then Valens came to confront them at Adrianople, he didnt wait for Gratian and then Gratian had to fix the mess because its also Gratian who choosed Theodosius I as successor of Valens which was a smart move

I think he made it too late, since there's only one episode left in production

[@a.h.tvideomapping4293]

ナナシさん unless he does a Byzantine Series

[@Kastor774]

@@a.h.tvideomapping4293 There won't be a Byzantine series because of the muslim hate. At most we can expect individual episodes on Justinian and Basil II, and that's a huge if.

ナナシさん bro I’m Muslim and I want a Byzantine series

[@powerist209]

Well, he also said that he also plan to make Islamic conquest. Though then there’s Iconclasm that even extended to Ali, who is like a Chad material (or Virgin due to being blamed for causing schism instead of being given a dumpster fire of a succession crisis). Maybe he can do The Message style where Muhammad’s presence was so intense that mere art would kill an artist and use its energy to turn Arabs into Chad army.

Why does majorian not get his own meme?

[@weixie44]

Where’s Marcian? Also, you could have just mentioned Valentinian’s pet bears.

[@AdriatheBwitch]

@@TominusMaximus But Valentinian was THE emperor of the west it make no sense you didnt put him then >< also, Marcian is a Theodosian and Leo I is not here too while he did influence the west greatly by sending many emperors to rule the west, you cant focus on the west without the east its just not possible!

What's the end card song?

[@Eazy-ERyder]

Majorian was NOT a puppet he was a BOSS - and THAT's why he was murdered

[@RagnaCloud13]

Out of Ricimer's envy
