Zeno was a surprisingly competent emperor who was dealt a bad hand, tried as best he could to hold the empire together after the fuck-ups of his precursors, even made some progress in the realm of foreign policy, but nevertheless was shit on by subsequent Byzantine historians because he wasn't Roman/Hellenic - he was an Isaurian who married into the empire, and the Byzantines considered him a barbarian.

I think it's worth mentioning now and then that Theodosius didn't come up with the idea of dividing the Empire. During the 4th century, the periods when the Empire was _not_ divided were the exception (326-337 under Constantine, 353-364 under Constantius II, Julian, and Jovian, and only 392-394 under Theodosius), usually along very similar lines. The division between Arcadius and Honorius just happened to be the last one.

No. It’s important because it was the only lasting one. Tetrarchy, for example, just lasted from 284 to 312

Fair point, but while the Empire was divided by Constantinius II and Julian (355-360) under Julian’s sole rule, and then that of Jovian (360-364) the Empire was politically one unit.

[@respublica4373]

@@zylen3167 It was not really too different from any previous divisions of the empire, the only reason why we consider it important now is that it just happened to be the last one.

6:14 Just a little fun fact: The Huns were originally from Central-East Asian regions who frequently raided the Han Dynasty of China, an empire which they have had been in a long tug-of-war rivalry with for over a century at this point. At some point however the Chinese finally managed to defeat the Huns, and forced them out of East Asia. The Huns fled westwards, forcing more barbarians to migrate to the west along the way as they conquered whilst fleeing, until the whole lot of them got to Europe and started raiding Western Rome. So in a sense, you can say that China all the way in the east technically, indrectly, unknowingly contributed to the Fall of Rome all the way in the west!

If you are worried about the age of "The World of Late Antiquity" I highly recommend Brown's latest publication on the subject: "Through the Eye of a Needle: Wealth, the Fall of Rome, and the Making of Christianity in the West 350-550 AD" It contains some important updates, chief among those being the notion that the barbarian invasions were a scapegoat conjured by Roman writers. The barbarian proto-kingdoms did play a part in Rome's downfall of course, but more through drawing talented romans away from Imperial courts to their own and thus becoming a valid alternative to the Respublica.

Glad to have been of assistance. The book is mainly concerned with contemporary views on wealth though, just so you know.

Would still recommend it to anyone interested in late western Roman culture.

Something interesting which is often forgotten is the status of the "barbarian" kings relative to the empire. The late Western Roman Empire effectively invented feudalism in the sense that for a long time the barbarian kings swore allegiance to the Emperor while being very autonomous in their rule. Also it's interesting to see that while we remember 476 as the date of the fall of the WRE, at the time it really wasn't seen as that. When Odoacer deposed Romulus Augustus, he actually sent his crown and scepter to the Eastern Roman Emperor saying "the Empire is now restored". It's later and only gradually that it became clear that the barbarian kings were happy to do things on their own and started ignoring the Emperor.
