<p>[QUOTE="TJC, post: 4722546, member: 45502"]@ VGO.DVCKS, Gallienus was likely born during the reign of Elagabalus and saw some stability during Severus Alexander's rule. And then came the Maxaminus the Thracian giant. All Hades broke loose from then on. The empire was under constant siege from within and without for the rest of Gallienus's life. The empire suffered several major setbacks including the loss of the Emperor Decius at the Battle of Abritus. Of course Gallienus himself was in the West defending the Limes when his his oldest son died and his father Valerian was captured by Shapur I. Italy itself was attacked by the Allamani during this time making almost to Rome itself. It is amazing Gallienus lasted as long as he did![/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
