Roman empire. Honorius (393-423 CE). Maiorina Minted in Antioch. GLORIA ROMANORVM, ANTΓ

 

Honorius, the son of the great Theodosius, was the final emperor of both Roman Empires. His rule was strongly backed by his chief general, Stilicho, who played pivotal roles as guardian and father-in-law.

 

Son of Theodosius I, Honorius was born in AD 382.  When Theodosius died, in January 395, Honorius and Arcadius divided the Empire, so that Honorius became Western Roman emperor at the age of ten. Despite reigning for three decades, the rule of Honorius is generally regarded as terrible and chaotic. In 410 Rome was sacked for the first time in 8 centuries and by 476 the Western Roman Empire would fall completely.
