  Emperor Gratian - Hutchinson encyclopedia article about Emperor Gratian   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-06)
On the death of his father, Valentinian I, he became emperor in the western part of the empire (Britain, Spain, and Gaul) and Valentinian II, his half-brother, became emperor of Italy, Africa, and Illyricum, under the regency of his mother, Justina.
In 378 he defeated the Lentienses at Argentaria, and in 379, with the help of Theodosius (emperor of the eastern part of the empire 379–95), drove the barbarians out of the Balkans.
The early years of his rule were marked by energy and success, but later he aroused the contempt of the Roman troops, and they proclaimed Maximus, who was then in Britain, emperor.

The Emperor Charles V had laboured upon the whole with marked devotion in favour of Catholicism, though his Italian policy, it is true, had frequently been repugnant to the wishes and the interests of the Roman pontiffs.
There were also many defections among the lesser princes, and so long as Maximilian II (1564-76) was emperor, his Protestant proclivities prevented the Catholics from acting with the vigour and authority which became their number and their cause.
The wars of Francis I with the Emperor Charles V had given the Reformation an occasion for spreading.
