<p>[QUOTE=&quot;kevin McGonigal, post: 4554914, member: 72790&quot;]I suspect we will never know who was the worst emperor of Rome as many of the emperors reigned at a time when there was nobody accurately documenting what was going on. If we were to attempt to catalog the crimes, follies and misfortunes of the emperors of Rome it might turn out that the worst ones were some of the obscure rulers who never merited much documentation. Having said that, I will throw out there one who actually gets good reviews, Constantine the Great who, despite his religious convictions, or maybe because of them, made a hash of religious divergences, murdered freely within his own family and barbarized the army to a tipping point of no return. A good deal of this is not much commented on or made much of as the Church was anxious to downplay his crimes and follies as a way of promoting his religious policies supporting Christianity. Whatever of evil he did was mostly buried with his bones.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
