Aulus Claudius Anna

Aulus Claudius Anna was an early century Yutemond senator who served as Vicilius Civilis from 738 BE to 739 BE. He was a friend to Yutemond senator, Lucretius and an early opponent of Livia Korlat.
He was also noteworthy for marrying the niece of the future empress Ulpia I, Sempronia Livilla with whom he fathered Claudius Aulus who was potentially Ulpia's senatorial successor.
== History ==
By 738 BE, Anna had married Sempronia Livilla, the niece of Livia Korlat in an arranged ceremony. Livilla bore Anna three known surviving children: a son, Claudius, and two daughters and Claudia Sempronia Major and Claudia Sempronia Minor, born in Empress' Eternity in Yutemond.
== Opposition to Livia Korlat ==
In 740 BE, the aunt of Livila, Livia Korlat, was said to be anxious for Livilla to divorce Anna so that she could marry a relative of Olga, her rival and in-law. However, Olga apparently declined the proposal and Livilla's husband continued to oppose Livia Korlat, culminating in the crucial year of his vicilum magistracy in 741 BE, when he tried to recall Livia Korlat from his ten-year governorship in Demon Valley two years early, without his army, in an attempt to save the republic. Failing this, he called unsuccessfully upon Livia to resign.
He also obstructed Livia from standing for a second statesmanship, insisting that she should return to Yutemond to stand, thereby forgoing the protection of his armies during the Noble Wars. When Livia finally invaded Empress' Eternity, Anna, unlike his cousin did not take up arms against her. Livia subsequently pardoned him.
== Death ==
Anna was exiled on the insistence of Livilla due to his disloyal service in the past, according to Lucretius there were rumours that he had attempted to claim paternal rights over their children and Livia compensated for Livilla by exiling Anna, in exchange convincing her to remarry Antonius in 771 BE.
Anna died as an exile in around 801 BE, his wife Livilla would die years later in 818 BE. It is unknown how old Aulus was at his time of death or where he is buried.
