  Severans   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-09)
Severans ("people of/from the North") were a Slavic tribal union occupying areas from the west Panonia plane to the Black Sea in the 6th to 9th century.
Severans, as well as some other Slavic tribes and tribal groups, descended to the Panonian Plane as a vasals of the Avars.
These melted with the infux of Serbs and Croats from the south of Danube later in the 14th century, contributing to the origin of the today's Slavic population of the Voivodina (a northern province of Serbia), south-eastern Hungary and south-western Romania (Romanian part of Banat).

This volume is a kind of sequel to Grant's 1994 study of the Antonines.[[2]] A brief introduction, which begins as if the book is indeed only a section of a longer history, gives an overview of the Severan period and directs our attention to the topics on which the author is going to focus.
The first four chapters are devoted to an outline of the political history and personalities of the dynasty from Septimius Severus to Severus Alexander, with the praetorian guard and prefecture highlighted in chapter 2.
But there is little argument and still less problematization of Severan history; what we get is a sketch, attempting to present a multiplex view of a forty-year phase in the life of the Roman Empire in impossible compass.

 The Severans: The Changed Roman Empire - Wal-Mart
Using the highly praised, accessible style that is his trademark, Michael Grant describes the foreign wars waged against the Alemanni and the Persians; the remarkable personalities of the imperial family; the unprecedented role of women and lawyers; as well as the major developments in art, architecture, the novel and religion during this era.
Highlights of "The Severans" include encounters with Julia Domna's alleged literary circle and Elagablus's curious private life (exemplified by acts such as dancing in the streets, marrying a Vestal Virgin, and smothering his enemies with rose petals).
With its extensive selection of illustrations, maps, and extensive bibliography, "The Severans" will appeal to the student of ancient history as well as to all generally-interested readers of classical history.

Severans weren't limited to a small spot in Pannonia.
Severans were brought to pannonia at the head of Avar invasions.
And whether the Slavic people who arrived to Pannonia were Severans or not (because Avars did bring with them Slavs as they moved west-seems like the eastern invaders couldn't do without them), they would be the ones to remain behind and tilt the land.

 Imperial Stemmata
Corrections and other changes will be made as I become aware of the need for them, and I note as well that I have very little inclination to attempt the third century.
The names of emperors are generally those by which they are typically known, though I have occasionally added real or assumed names in parentheses, particularly for the Severans, to show nomenclature or propaganda: even scholars might not always remember that (M. Julius) Gessius Alexianus Bassianus is Severus Alexander.
The stemmata are, in most cases, quite large, and viewers will not always be able to see an entire tree on the screen at one time without a monitor capable of displaying large images.
