NEW MAP: Europe 308: Council of Carnuntum (11 November 308) https://buff.ly/3BADGE0 Maximian and Maxentius soon had a falling out and in April 308 Maximian took refuge with Constantine, encouraging Domitius Alexander in Africa to also break with Maxentius. That year Diocletian came out of retirement and, at Carnuntum in November, met with Galerius and Maximian in an attempt to restore stability to the empire. They agreed to appoint Licinius as a new Augustus, to confirm Constantine and Maximinus Daza as Caesars, and for Maximian to step down. For a moment an unprecedented eight emperors ruled the Roman world, but even after Diocletian and Maximian returned to retirement, a still daunting six remained. #4thcentury #ancientrome #arthistory #constantinethegreat #constantinei #diocletian #galerius #cartografia #cartography #easternromanempire #europe #europeanhistory #historicalplace #history #historydegree #historylover #historymatters #historynerd #maps #roman #romanafrica #romancivilwar #tetrarchy #romanempire #romanhistory #romans #teachinghistory #welovemaps #westernromanempire #newmap (at Carnuntum)

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)
