NEW MAP: Europe 313: Battle of Tzirallum (30 April 313) https://buff.ly/2Wg5UUN Constantine’s capture of Rome established his preeminence among the three Augusti. Realizing that Constantine and Licinius were colluding against him, Maximinus Daza crossed into Europe in the spring of 313 but was decisively defeated by Licinius at Tzirallum. Maximinus was the last Roman emperor to persecute Christians; following his downfall, Christianity began to emerge as the dominant religion in the empire. #4thcentury #ancientrome #april #april30 #constantine #cartographer #constantinei #easternromanempire #europe #europeanhistory #geopolitics #historicalplace #history #historydegree #historyfacts #historylover #historymajor #historyschool #maps #riskgame #roman #romancivilwar #romancivilwars #romanempire #romanhistory #romans #teachinghistory #westernromanempire #worldatlas #newmap (at Çorlu)

NEW MAP: Europe 311: Collapse of the Tetrarchy (10 June 311) https://buff.ly/3xslYiL In early May 311 Galerius died and was succeeded as senior Augustus by Maximinus Daza. Although Constantine and Licinius would pay lip service to this decision until late 312, Maximinus had little authority over the two Augusti and did not appoint a new tetrarch. #4thcentury #lateromanempire #ancientrome #byzantium #constantine #carta #cartografia #constantinei #easternromanempire #europe #europeanhistory #historia #historian #historias #historical #historylesson #historymatters #historyteacher #map #maps #roman #romanafrica #romancivilwar #romancivilwars #romanempire #romanhistory #romans #tetrarchy #worldhistory #newmap (at Sirmium Palatium Imperiale)

NEW MAP: Europe 310: Maximian’s Last Stand (July 310) https://buff.ly/2TMJFoo Maximinus Daza refused to accept the rulings at Carnuntum and demanded to be made an Augustus. Reluctantly, Galerius backed down, initially acknowledging Maximinus and Constantine as ‘Sons of Augusti’ then, after Maximinus threatened to rebel, recognizing them both as full Augusti in 310. That year Constantine faced his own problems when his father-in-law Maximian emerged from retirement in Viennensis and proclaimed himself emperor again. However, Maximian found little support and was forced to kill himself when Constantine’s army arrived. #4thcentury #ancientrome #constantine #constantinethegreat #constantinei #maximian #easternromanempire #europeanhistory #gaul #historian #historias #historic #historicalmap #historisch #historybuff #historydegree #historylover #historylovers #historyschool #instahistory #maps #roman #romancivilwar #romancivilwars #romanempire #romanhistory #romanitaly #romans #westernromanempire #worldhistory (at Arles, France)

NEW MAP: Europe 307: Galerius vs Maxentius (fall 307) https://buff.ly/3iibFZa Galerius rejected Maxentius’ claim to power in Rome and sent Severus to crush him in early 307. However, Maxentius’ father Maximian returned in support of his son and the two defeated Severus. Maximian then traveled to Gaul to secure the friendship of Constantine. While he was doing this, Galerius invaded Italy himself, but had to withdraw when he realized he could not capture Rome. #thirdcentury #ancientrome #constantinethegreat #constantine #constantinei #maxentius #galerius #europe #europeanhistory #gaul #historie #historyfacts #historygeek #historylesson #historylovers #historymajor #historymaker #mapping #maps #roman #romanafrica #romancivilwar #romancivilwars #romanempire #romanhistory #romanitaly #romans #westernromanempire #worldatlas #newmap (at Rome, Italy)

NEW MAP: Europe 296: Battle of Calleva Atrebatum (September 296) https://buff.ly/2SXPm25 With the establishment of the Tetrarchy, Constantius took command in Gaul and immediately moved against Carausius, who he expelled from the major Gallic port of Gesoriacum in the summer of 293. However, it would be another three years before Constantius was ready to launch a fleet to cross the Channel and land two armies on the British coast. Carausius’ successor Allectus moved against the invaders, but was defeated near Calleva Atrebatum (Silchester), bringing an end to almost ten years of rebel rule in Britain. #thirdcentury #diocletian #ancientrome #cartography #romanbritain #europe #europeanhistory #gaul #historia #historie #history #historydegree #historylover #historynerd #constantius #mapmaking #maps #oldmaps #roman #romancivilwar #romancivilwars #romanempire #romanhistory #romans #romaninvasion #englishhistory #ancientbritain #britishhistory #welovemaps #newmap (at Calleva Atrebatum)

NEW MAP: Europe 293: First Tetrarchy (1 March 293) https://buff.ly/34rIKv6 By 293 Carausius still held out in Britain and Diocletian had become convinced that a new system was needed to secure both the Roman Empire and the succession. In March he presided over the appointment of two Caesars (subordinates and heirs)—Galerius to serve with him in the East and Constantius to join Maximian in the West. This rule of four men—two Augusti (emperors) and two Caesars—later became known as the Tetrarchy. #thirdcentury #ancientrome #tetrarchy #diocletian #easternromanempire #europe #europeanhistory #gaul #goths #historical #historicalmap #historicalmaps #historicalplace #historie #history #historylover #ancientpersia #mapping #maps #roman #romancivilwar #romancivilwars #romanempire #romanhistory #romans #constantius #romanemperor #welovemaps #worldatlas #newmap (at Mediolanum)

NEW MAP: Europe 287: Carausian Revolt (early 287) https://buff.ly/3bL5bQh In 286 Diocletian appointed his deputy Maximian as co-emperor to rule the West while he himself ruled the East. Almost immediately the Germanic tribes invaded Gaul while Frankish and Saxon pirates raided the Channel. To deal with the pirates, Maximian placed the general Carausius in charge of the Channel fleet, but, after being accused of corruption, Carausius fled to Britain with the fleet and proclaimed himself emperor. #thirdcentury #carausius #ancientrome #romanbritain #ancientbritain #cartographer #europe #europeanhistory #franks #historias #historicalmaps #historyinthemaking #historylovers #historymuseum #historyteacher #map #mapmaking #mapping #maps #roman #romancivilwar #romancivilwars #romanempire #romanhistory #romans #saxons #teachinghistory #worldatlas #worldhistory #newmap (at Boulogne-Sur-Mer, Nord-Pas-De-Calais, France)

NEW MAP: Europe 283: Carus’ Persian campaign (July 283) https://buff.ly/3e5hPeg In late 282 Probus was assassinated and succeeded by Carus. Learning that the Persians were in civil war, Carus rushed east with his army, placing his son Carinus in charge of the West. Carus’ invasion of Persia proved to be a great success—that is, until he fell ill and was apparently struck dead by lightning in the summer of 283. #thirdcentury #3rdcentury #ancientrome #carta #europe #europeanhistory #historia #histories #historybuff #historygeek #historyteacher #instahistory #map #mapa #maps #roman #romancivilwar #romancivilwars #romanempire #romanhistory #romans #sasanian #sasanid #persianempire #ancientpersia #lightningstrikes #romanmilitary #teachinghistory #welovehistory #newmap (at Ctesiphon)

NEW MAP: Europe 280: Proculus and Bonosus (late 280) https://buff.ly/32MMiXX Following his victories over the Germanic tribes, Probus headed east to confront the Persians. However, as he approached Syria in 280, news of renewed unrest in the west forced him to turn back. This time two usurpers, Proculus and Bonosus, had risen up in Gaul. It’s unclear as to whether or not the two were aligned; either way, Probus defeated them both by 281. #thirdcentury #ancientrome #3rdcentury #europe #europeanhistory #gaul #franks #goths #ancientgaul #historicalmaps #historie #historisch #historyclass #historydegree #historyinthemaking #historylovers #germania #map #mapping #maps #roman #romancivilwar #romancivilwars #romanempire #romanhistory #romans #romanemperor #caesar #spqr #newmap (at Lugdunum)

NEW MAP: Europe 276: Probus vs Florian (August 276) https://buff.ly/3uCtuH2 Tacitus was succeeded by his half-brother Florian, who was almost immediately challenged by the general Probus. Although Probus was only recognized in a few eastern provinces, and had a much smaller army, he quickly outmaneuvered and deposed Florian to become the sole emperor in September 276. #thirdcentury #3rdcentury #antiquity #ancientrome #aegyptus #europe #europeanhistory #historias #historicalmaps #historyclass #historyfacts #historygram #historylesson #historymaker #map #mapmaking #maps #romansyria #phoenicia #roman #romancivilwar #romancivilwars #romanempire #romanhistory #romans #romanemperor #spqr #teachinghistory #worldatlas #newmap (at Antioch, Turkey)

NEW MAP: Europe 274: Battle of Châlons (summer 274) https://buff.ly/2P8ALip From Alexandria, Aurelian marched back west to confront Tetricus, who still held power in Gaul. However, when the two met in battle at Châlons in 274, Tetricus quickly defected, abandoning his mutinous army to defeat. #thirdcentury #3rdcentury #ancientrome #belgica #cartografia #europe #europeanhistory #gaul #historia #historias #historicalplace #historybuff #historyinthemaking #historymajor #historyteacher #gallicemprie #mapa #maps #militaryhistory #roman #romancivilwar #romancivilwars #romanempire #romanhistory #romans #aurelian #romanemperor #spqr #history #newmap (at Châlons-en-Champagne, France)

NEW MAP: Europe 272: Battle of Immae (spring 272) https://buff.ly/2NHTXD1 While traveling east to face Zenobia, Aurelian concluded that Dacia was indefensible and pulled the remaining legions from that province south of the Danube. He then crossed into Asia Minor in early 272 and, marching rapidly on Syria, defeated Zenobia at Immae a few months later. #3rdcentury #ancientrome #cappadocia #dacia #europe #europeanhistory #galatia #historic #historisch #history #historybuff #historydegree #historyschool #maps #aurelian #moesia #oldmaps #palmyra #spqr #roman #romancivilwar #romancivilwars #romanempire #romanhistory #imperialrome #romans #romansyria #palmyra #zenobia #newmap (at Antakya, Hatay)
