Flavius Valerius Constantinus (* on February 27 between 272 and 285 in Naissus, t May 22 337 in Anchyrona) Constantine the Great, or Constantine I for short, was Roman Emperor from 306 - 337. However, he did not become sole ruler until 324. Constantine's reign was historically significant mainly because of the Constantinian turn he initiated, which began the rise of Christianity to the most important religion in the empire. In 312 he invaded Italy and defeated Maximian's son Maxentius at the Milvian Bridge, becoming Augustus. Constantine the Great also became known as the emperor of the turn of the century and the reorganizer of the Roman Empire. 324/26 Constantine moved his seat of government to Constantinople ("City of Constantine"). Shortly after Easter 337, however, Constantine fell seriously ill. Anticipating his death, he summoned the Bishop of Nicomedia. It was only at this point, when he assumed he would no longer commit any sins, that Constantine was baptized. The preparations for war were halted and the emperor died on May 22, 337 in the imperial villa of Ankyrona. With the burial in the Apostle Church, Constantine the Great was honored as the 13th Apostle. After his death, the sons of Constantine II, Constantius Il. and Constans his successors.

Flavius Julius Constantius (born August 07, 317, d. November 03, 361 Cilicia) Shortly Constantius II, was the third son of Constantine the Great and was Roman Emperor from 337 - 361. From 337 he ruled only in the east and from 350/53 to 360 also in the entire empire. At the age of seven he became a caeser and administrator of the eastern half of the empire. His reign was marked by a constant defensive struggle at the borders. Serious problems also arose in the area of religious policy, but Constantius was unable to solve them permanently. After Constantine's death in 337, a series of murders ensued and the brothers, Constantine II, Constans and Constantius II. took the title of Augustus and shared rulership. Constantius received the eastern part of the empire. His brother Konstantin II. died already in 340 after a fight against Constans, who now controlled the whole empire. He died in Cilicia on November 3rd, 361, weakened by the fever and the hardships of the past years. Source: text information board Gaius Pius Esuvius Tetricus (b. 269) Tetricus for short, was the last emperor of the Gallic Empire (Imperium Galliarum) from 271 - 274. 271 he was proclaimed emperor by the lord and moved his residence from Cologne to Trier. Several victories against the Germans. Tetricus set up fortified bases on the left bank of the Rhine, which were supplemented by fortresses belonging to private landlords (possibly also on the Nahekopf). Lost in March 274 to Aurelian, but continued under him in high office. It remains unclear whether Tetricus and his son had to capitulate or defected to Aurelian. But their army was crushed and the end of the Gallic empire was finally sealed. Source: text information board

Flavius Julius Constans (* between 320 and 323, t February 350 in southern Gaul near Eine) Constans for short, was the youngest son of Constantine the Great and Roman Emperor from 337 - 350. After the death of his father he ruled as Augustus together with his brothers Constantine II. and Constantius II. about the Roman Empire. From 340 he ruled the entire west. Through clumsy government policies, he made many enemies. In 350 the army proclaimed General Magnentius emperor, who captured and killed him. Source: text information board Marcus Aurelius Valerius Maximianus (* around 240 near Sirmium, d 310 in Gaul) Shortly Maximian, was from March 1st, 286 to May 1st, 305 Emperor of the Roman Empire together with Diocletian. During his reign he was able to achieve some military successes such as against the Alamanni and Burgundians on the Rhine or against the Carps on the Danube border. On May 1, 305, Diocletian and Maximian resigned together. Maximian was urged to take this step. In February 307, however, Maximian proclaimed himself Augustus and resolved the conflicts surrounding the government. But already at the imperial conference in 308, Maximian was forced by Diocletian to abdicate and fled to Gaul. In 310 he proclaimed himself emperor again, but was no longer able to defend himself against Constantine. He was handed over to Constantine by soldiers and eventually forced to commit suicide by him.
