	Marcian - LoveToKnow 1911
		Marcian repudiated the payment of tribute to Attila; he reformed the finances, checked extravagance, and repeopled the devastated districts.
		He repelled attacks upon Syria and Egypt (452), and quelled disturbances on the Armenian frontier (456).
		The other notable event of his reign is the Council of Chalcedon (451), in which Marcian endeavoured to mediate between the rival schools of theology.

	Roman Emperors - DIR Marcian
		Marcian had pushed to the fore the views of Pope Leo (from the so-called Tome of Leo), no doubt hoping that the bishop of Rome would in turn support his reign with Valentinian III (Valentinian gave only lukewarm recognition to his imperial colleague).
		Marcian's policy also resulted in saving the imperial treasury enormous sums: at the end of his reign, Marcian left his successor 100,000 pounds of gold.
		In January of 457, Marcian died at the age of 65, supposedly of gangrene in the feet.

	Marcian - Roman Emperor
		Marcian was born in AD 392 and most likely Illyrian by birth.
		Marcian's decision was conceived with suspicion by his own people fearing invasion from Attila, but it turned out to be enormously successful.
		Apart from a lack of military spirit, Marcian proved to be a very able administrator, and many reforms introduced by Marcian, in addition to the halting of payments to the Huns, made the financial situation of Constantinople a very strong one.
