	Marcus Aurelius Valerius Maxentius - LoveToKnow 1911
		MARCUS AURELIUS VALERIUS MAXENTIUS, Roman emperor from A.D. 306 to 312, was the son of Maximianus Herculius, and the son-in-law of Galerius.
		A variety of causes, however, had produced strong dissatisfaction at Rome with many of the arrangements established by Diocletian, and on the 28th of October 306, the public discontent found expression in the massacre of those magistrates who remained loyal to Flavius Valerius Severus and in the election of Maxentius to the imperial dignity.
		Maxentius was defeated at Saxa Rubra near Rome and drowned in the Tiber while attempting to make his way across the Milvian bridge into Rome.

	Marcus Aurelius Valerius Maximianus - LoveToKnow 1911
		MARCUS AURELIUS VALERIUS MAXIMIANUS, surnamed Herculius, Roman emperor from A.D. 286 to 305, was born of humble parents at Sirmium in Pannonia.
		In 287 he suppressed the rising of the peasants (Bagaudae) in Gaul, but in 289, after a three years' struggle, his colleague and he were compelled to acquiesce in the assumption by his lieutenant Carausius (who had crossed over to Britain) of the title of Augustus.
		In 307 he brought the emperor Flavius Valerius Severus a captive to Rome, and also compelled Galerius to retreat, but in 308 he was himself driven by Maxentius from Italy into Illyricum, whence again he was compelled to seek refuge at Arelate (Arles), the court of his son-in-law, Constantine.

		Maxentius was born to the eventual coruler Maximian and his wife Eutropia.
		Maxentius' larger but inferior forces were defeated at Segusis and at Augusta Taurinorum, and Constantine advanced to the Walls of Rome where, as the Christian historians liked to write, the great battle between Christianity and Paganism took place on the Milvian Bridge.
		The reign of Maxentius was described by the Christian chroniclers as the era of a wicked pagan tyrant who fell before the bright rays of the new Christian champion.

	Emperor Maxentius
		Marcus Aurelius Valerius Maxentius was born around AD 279 as the son of Maximian and his Syrian wife Eutropia.
		Maxentius had command of at least four times as great an army, but his troops did not possess the same discipline, nor was Maxentius' an equal general to Constantine.
		Maxentius numerically still held the upper hand, but at first decided to rely on the further advantage the city walls of Rome would grant his army of Constantine.

		After the defeat of Severus, Maxentius took possession of northern Italy up to the Alps and the Istrian peninsula to the east, and assumed the title of Augustus, which (in his eyes) had become vacant with the surrender of Severus.
		It was expected that Maxentius would try the same strategy as against Severus and Galerius earlier; that is, remaining in the well-defended city of Rome, and sit out a siege which would cost his enemy much more.
		In religious affairs, Maxentius tolerated the Christians in his realm, though he himself supported the traditional pagan religion, which reminded adherents of Rome's glorious past.

	Rome and Romania, Roman Emperors, Byzantine Emperors, etc.
		While a thoughtful Emperor, like Marcus Aurelius, expressed ideals adopted from Stoic cosmopolitanism, the unity and universality of Rome soon expressed itself as the unity and universality of a state religion, Christianity, whose intrinsic exclusivism and intolerance became characteristic of the Middle Ages.
		The peace ended under Marcus Aurelius, the closest thing to a "philosopher king" until Thomas Jefferson, but also a very competent general, who smashed a major German invasion across the Danube, while consoling himself with Stoicism for the miseries of war, plague, and personal loss.
		There is a possible connection, since the Ossetians are descendants of the Alans, and Marcus Aurelius had settled a tribe of Alans, the Iazyges, whom he had defeated in 175 and taken into Roman service, in the north of Britain, where many of them settled at Bremetenacum Veteranorum, south of Lancaster.
