    Good to hear you're back.
    Claudius II continued where Gallienus left off but died before he could finish it.
    However 3rd time is the charm and Aurelian definitely showed his merit.

    @EasternRomanHistory 9 місяців тому +11

    Another lovely video. I am glad my notes were helpful. I must agree that, although somewhat competent, it is difficult to really credit Claudius II with much more as an emperor. It is also noteworthy that Claudius II promoted his lineage as being descended from Gordian III. Aurelian would likewise try and connect himself to Valerian and Trajan so it is unsurprising that Constantine I would do the same thing.
    Good luck to John, farewell Alexander.

    Great video but bittersweet as I am very bummed that Alex is leaving the channel. He's one of my all-time top favorite narrators and will be great missed. This is not meant as a slight to the new narrator but you'll have some very big shoes to fill.

    • @TheSPQRHistorian

      He is and he isn't. He could've become another Gallienus or Aurelian but never got the chance before he died. He was capable snd experienced general, who seems to have been well-liked by the soldiers and officers alike.
