<p>[QUOTE=&quot;dougsmit, post: 2319189, member: 19463&quot;]Just a group of Constantine types that may be of interest to some and will bore others.&nbsp; I repeat the opinion that people who can not study history of people that they wouldn&#039;t invite over for dinner probably should take up another hobby.&nbsp; The vast majority of Roman Emperors were giant jerks by modern standards.&nbsp; Byzantines were, if anything, worse.&nbsp; I&#039;m not terribly fond of quite a few of the US Presidents but we are collecting coins and studying coins of these people not marrying them into our families.&nbsp;&nbsp; From what I have read, the WW blurb is probably close.&nbsp; One does not take over the world and become the biggest name in a history of several hundred big names without being &#039;efficient&#039;.&nbsp; Constantine was good at what he did and died a natural death.&nbsp; You have to award a few points for that last one.</p><p>[ATTACH=full]468416[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]468417[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]468418[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]468419[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]468420[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]468421[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]468422[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]468423[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
