My momma whacks my bum every time I get tagged and don't respond, guys!! :bigtears::hurting: Great post and thread, though, I must admit. :D My theory is that Sev Alex was a good emperor, ruling on the advice of his family and his large advisory council, but that the army's misogynistic attitude towards his mother made them paint his every action in a bad light towards the end.
