	(80) Galba (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-08)
		Servius Sulpicius Galba, who was born into an old aristocratic family and who had served as governor in Germany and Spain, joined the revolt against Nero, was hailed imperator by his troops, and assumed the title Augustus on the death of Nero.
		Galba issued coins during the revolt, before he had been confirmed as Augustus by the Senate, and these featured types and slogans of the revolt promising the restitution of Rome and of liberty.
		Galba's portrait on the obverse shows that he rejected the youthful classicism of the Julio-Claudians and the flourishes of Nero for an uncompromising realism perhaps meant to recall the verism of the late republic and to appeal to the military upon which his power depended.

		Servius Sulpicius Galba's political career had been favored by all previous emperors of the house of Caesar.
		But fearing that the emperor was plotting his assassination, Galba encouraged Vindex, the Roman governor of Lyons to revolt and used his influence to rally political and military support for him.
		The conjunction of Nero's suicide and Vindex's defeat paved the way for Galba to be the first Roman who was not directly related to the house of Caesar to be proclaimed emperor by the Senate.
