Senate of Canada: The Senate of Canada (French: "Sénat du Canada" ) is a component of the Parliament of Canada, along with the House of Commons and the Monarch (represented by the Governor General).  The Senate is modelled after the British House of Lords and consists of 105 members appointed by the Governor General on the advice of the Prime Minister.  Seats are assigned on a regional basis: four regions—defined as Ontario, Quebec, the Maritime provinces, and the Western provinces—each receive 24 seats, with the remaining portions of the country—Newfoundland and Labrador and the three northern territories—assigned the remaining 9 seats apart from these regional divisions.  Senators may serve until they reach the age of 75.

Agra Province: Agra Province was a part of the United Provinces of Agra and Oudh of British India during the closing decades of the British Raj, from 1904 until 1947; it corresponded (under Section 4(4) of United Provinces Act 1, 1904) to the former regions, Ceded and Conquered Provinces (1805–1836) and the North Western Provinces (1836–1902).

Syagrius: Syagrius (430 – 486 or 487) was the last Roman military commander of the Kingdom of Soissons, a Roman rump state in northern Gaul.  His defeat by king Clovis I of the Franks is considered the end of Western Roman rule outside of Italy.  He inherited his position from his father, Aegidius, the last Roman "magister militum per Gallias".  Syagrius preserved his father's territory between the Somme and the Loire around Soissons after the collapse of central rule in the Western Empire, a domain Gregory of Tours called the "Kingdom" of Soissons.  Syagrius governed this Gallo-Roman enclave from the death of his father in 464 until 486, when he was defeated in battle by Clovis I.

Julius Nepos: Julius Nepos (Latin: "Flavius Iulius Nepos Augustus"; 430480) was Western Roman Emperor "de facto" from 474 to 475 and "de jure" until 480.  He was also the ruler of Roman Dalmatia from 468 to 480.  Some historians consider Nepos to be the last Western Roman Emperor, while others consider the western line to have ended with Romulus Augustulus in 476.  In contrast, the Eastern Roman Empire and its line of Emperors survived this period of history essentially intact.

Western Roman Empire: In historiography, the Western Roman Empire consists of the western provinces of the Roman Empire at any one time during which they were administered by a separate independent Imperial court, coequal with (or only nominally subordinate to) that administering the eastern half.  Both "Western Roman Empire" and "Eastern Roman Empire" (or "Byzantine Empire") are modern terms describing "de facto" independent entities; however, at no point did the Romans consider the Empire split into two, but rather considered it a single state governed by two separate Imperial courts out of administrative expediency.  The view that the Empire was impossible to govern by one emperor was established by Diocletian following the disastrous civil wars and disintegration of the Crisis of the 3rd century, and was instituted in Roman law by his introduction of the Tetrarchy in AD 285, a form of government which was legally to endure in one form or another for centuries.  The Western Court was periodically abolished and recreated for the next two centuries until final abolition by Zeno in 480, by which time there was little effective central control left in the area legally administered by the Western Court.

Ovida: Ovida, Obida or Odiva (died December 9, 480) was a general during the late Western Roman Empire and the last Roman ruler of Dalmatia.  He was a Goth, as shown by his Germanic name.

Western Canada: Western Canada, also referred to as the Western provinces and more commonly known as the West, is a region of Canada that includes the four provinces of Alberta, British Columbia, Manitoba and Saskatchewan.  British Columbia is culturally, economically, geographically, and politically distinct from the other parts of Western Canada and is often referred to as the "west coast" or "Pacific Canada", while Alberta, Saskatchewan, and Manitoba are grouped together as the Prairie Provinces and most commonly known as "The Prairies".

Bellum Batonianum: The Bellum Batonianum (Latin for "war of the Batos") was a military conflict fought in the Roman province of Illyricum in which an alliance of the native peoples of Illyricum rebelled against the Romans.  The name Batonianum holds some similarity to early Bosnian name Bestonensis and Illyrian state Bossona.  There were two regions in this Roman province: Dalmatia and Pannonia.  The rebellion began among native peoples who were recruited as auxiliary troops for the Romans.  They were led by Bato the Daesitiate (the Deasitiae were a tribe which lived in Dalmatia).  They were joined by the Breuci (a tribe in Pannonia) led by Bato the Breucan.  Many other tribes in Illyria also joined the revolt.  The Roman called this conflict bellum batonianum (Batonian war) after these two leaders who had the same name.  Velleius Paterculus called it the Pannonian and Dalmatian war because it involved both regions of Illyricum.  In English it has been called the "Great Illyrian revolt", "Pannonian-Dalmatian uprising" and "Bato uprising."  This four-year war, which lasted from 6 AD to 9 AD, saw a large deployment of Roman forces in the province, with whole armies operating across the western Balkans and fighting on more than one front.  In 8 AD the Breuci of the Sava valley surrendered, but it took another winter blockade and a season of fighting before the surrender in Dalmatia came in 9 AD .  The Roman historian Suetonius described this war as the most difficult conflict faced by Rome since the Punic Wars two centuries earlier.

Christianity in the 6th century: In 6th century Christianity, Roman Emperor Justinian launched a military campaign in Constantinople to reclaim the western provinces from the Germans, starting with North Africa and proceeding to Italy.  Though he was temporarily successful in recapturing much of the western Mediterranean he destroyed the urban centers and permanently ruined the economies in much of the West.  Rome and other cities were abandoned.  In the coming centuries the Western Church, as virtually the only surviving Roman institution in the West, became the only remaining link to Greek culture and civilization.
