 | | Flavius Valens and his brother Flavius Valentinianus (Valentinian) were both born 48 miles east of Sirmium, in the town of Cibalae in 328 and 321, respectively. |
 | | In 375, Valens' older brother Valentinian suffered a burst blood vessel in his skull, which resulted in his death on November 17, 375. |
 | | Meanwhile, Valens' councilors, Comes Richomer, and his generals Frigerid, Sebastian, and Victor cautioned Valens and tried to persuade him to wait for Gratian's arrival with his victorious legionaries from Gaul, something that Gratian himself strenuously advocated. |
