    1. Civil wars of the Tetrarchy

    Were a series of conflicts between the co-emperors of the Roman Empire (the system of Thetrarchy introduced by Diocletian divided the Roman Empire between two emperors, the augusti, and their junior colleagues and designated successors, the caesares). The war ended with Constantine I as undisputed Emperor.

  • January 312: In 311, Domitius Alexander, the Roman governor of Africa, was defeated by Maxentius, a rival claimant to the Roman throne. Around the same time, Galerius, another Roman emperor, died, and his territory was taken over by Licinius. This period marked a time of political turmoil and power struggles within the Roman Empire.
