When the elder Valentinian died on a campaign in Pannonia in AD 375, the generals acclaimed four-year-old Valentinian II augustus, without consulting Valens or Gratian. The reasons for this unclear, but as Valentinian unior grew up, he seems to have never exercised any real authority, existing merely as a figurehead for his mother, co-emperors, and generals.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
