| | LEGIO VI VICTRIX (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-02) |
 | | It is known though that it must’ve been somewhere in Gallaetia (Hispania citerior). |
 | | In 68 AD, Marcus Salvius Otho, governor of Lusitania, and Servius Sulpicius Galba, governor of Hispania Taraconensis, joined Gaius Julius Vindex, governor of Gallia Lugdunensis, in rebellion against Nero. |
 | | Because Vindex refused to become emperor in case of victory, Galba, his power based on the only legion under his command, the VI, had himself proclaimed "legate of the senate and the Roman people" in Carthago Noca on 4/2/68. |
