This volume covers the history of the Roman Empire from the
accession of Septimius Severus in AD 193 to the death of
Constantine in AD 337. This period was one of the most critical in
the history of the Mediterranean world. It begins with the
establishment of the Severan dynasty as a result of civil war. From
AD 235 this period of relative stability was followed by half a
century of short reigns of short-lived emperors and a number of
military attacks on the eastern and northern frontiers of the
empire. This was followed by the First Tetrarchy (AD 284-305), a
period of collegial rule in which Diocletian, with his colleague
Maximian and two junior Caesars (Constantius and Galerius),
restabilised the empire. The period ends with the reign of the
first Christian emperor, Constantine, who defeated Licinius and
established a dynasty which lasted for thirty-five years.
