For a so-called Gallic Empire splitting from Rome, it's still very Roman. Also, the Palmyrene Empire is also trying to split from Rome itself. The post How Truly Gallic Was The Gallic Empire? | 261AD-270AD appeared first on TGNR.

RE-UPLOAD from /GetNuanced on YouTube - Reigning as Emperor of Rome during the climax of the Crisis of the Third Century, Aurelian (c. 270 - 275 AD) despite being of humble origins had risen through the military ranks of the Roman Army to become leader of the Orbis Romanus at a time when its continued existence as a unified, single political state was within question from its contemporary citizenry. With the Germanic Migrations that would become one of the primary staples that characterized the history of the Late Roman Empire (until the very Fall of Rome in the West), said Germanic Tribes from across the Rhine River had gone from manageable nuisances that would periodically raid into the Imperium's frontiers, into fearsome and worthy adversaries which would become increasingly determined to make their way into the very heartlands of Rome and carve a place out within its borders for the various peoples of Germania to call their new homeland. Separatist tendencies that had been long brewing and no longer could be suppressed manifested themselves in the breakaway provinces of both the East and West attempting to severe ties with the Imperium Romanum in the form of the Palmyrene Empire and Gallic Empire, respectively. Despite his untimely death, Aurelian's many achievements would outlive him and his legacy as being Restitutor Orbis (Latin for "Restorer of the World") would inspire the modern cities of Orleans in France and New Orleans in the State of Louisiana in America to be named in his honor. In five short years he did far more than many would and will do in decades. -- NOTE: This was originally published a few months prior on YouTube, over at: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tb6MA1dfj4k This is officially the first of what will in time be many segments from GetNuanced via AnchorFM and if you enjoyed tuning in please consider following this Anchor Profile and subscribing to the YouTube channel for video-based exclusives such as clips and behind-the-scenes content which is as relevant as it is worthwhile.

These breakaway empires, as well as the social turmoil and chaos which characterized the period, resulted from a number of factors: a shift in the paradigm of leadership following the assassination of the emperor Alexander Severus (222-235 CE) in 235 CE by his own troops, increased participation by the military in politics, lack of adherence to a clear policy of succession for emperors, inflation and economic depression caused by a devaluation of currency under the Severan Dynasty, increased pressure on the emperor to defend the provinces from invading tribes, the plague which heightened fears and destabilized communities, and larger armies which required more men and decreased the agricultural labor force.
