Decebalus

Decebalus was the barbarian king of Dacia. He was given gold to fortify his kingdom against the G\*rms, only to do so against the Roman Empire instead. This resulted in three wars, his capture, and suicide.

## In "Unbiased History"

### The PAX ROMANA

Decebalus is first seen decapitating the governor of Moesia. With this, Domitian sent the Praetorian Prefect to take care of him, only for the legion to be ambushed and killed, with the Praetorian Eagle Standard being stolen as a result. Domitian would later start his own war against the Dacians, and would have won if a revolt didn't happen at exactly the wrong, or in Decebalus' case, right time. To secure a quick peace, Domitian made a deal with him: Decebalus would become a client king for the empire in exchange for a sum of gold to defend his kingdom against the Germanic tribes threatening his kingdom's borders, which, being a filthy barbarian, would instead use the gold to fund a revolt of his own.

### The Five Good Emperors

Due to Decebalus' betrayal of his word, Trajan asked the Senate to invade Dacia, which was approved unanimously. Despite all the advantages the Dacians had, it was a stomp-fest after Apollodorus of Damascus built a bridge to have the legions cross the Danube. Even Jupiter was against him, sending a lightning storm his way, causing him to flee. While Trajan's legions rested in the empire during the winter, Decebalus tried to charge through the frozen river, only for a good chunk of his army to fall in the freezing waters as the ice broke beneath them, not helped by Lucius Quietus using his cavalry to attack said army while it was weak. He surrendered as a result, "accepting" a second peace deal, where some of his land would be given to the Roman Empire alongside a permanent bridge built across the river, as well as being a client king, being asked to remain loyal this time.

Obviously, he did not remain loyal.

Not even a year later, he sacked Moesia once more. As a response, the empire started the Third Dacian War, which was a decisive Roman victory, due in no small part to a Dacian telling Trajan where the water supply of the capital was, having it be cut off and causing mass thirst amongst the army as a result. He attempted to flee to Sarmatia whilst another Dacian exposed his gold deposits. This attempt failed, causing him to be caught by Quietus' cavalry. Refusing to pay for his crimes, he killed himself, thus ending Dacia's existence. His head and right arms would later be taken back to Rome and thrown to the Gemonian Stairs, just before a triumph was to be held.

## "Trivia"

* Decabalus is considered as one of Romania's national heroes, besides Vlad Dracula and Stephen the Great, due to the nation's Dacian heritage. Which made it ironic since much of Romanian language are more in line with Latins than the Dacians.
Antinous

## Trivia

* Apparently, both Hadrian and Antinous shared a love of hunting, and both went to kill a lion that was terrorizing a community in Libya. The details are unclear, but it appears that the emperor saved his favorite from the beast moments before it could attack.
* In a very unusual case, both pagans and Christians criticized the deidification of Antinous.
Marcus Claudius Marcellus

She is often viewed as having provided Romans with fairer taxation, improved education, assisted the poor, and created tolerance in Roman society.
Constantine VIII

**Constantine VIII** reigned for 1025-1028 after death of his brother Basil II. Unlike his brother, his meek nature and lackluster rule marked the beginning of the decline from its zenith. His death after 3 years of his reign led to a series of inept rulers--starting Romanos III--under the influence of ambitious courtiers and his daughter Zoe.

## Trivia

## in Unbiased History.

## "Trivia"

* As Unbiased History is unabashedly bias towards Romans and non-Romans as literal monsters, the account of Fritigern tends to vilify him.
	+ Fritigern was aided by Valens against his rival Athanaric along with conversion to Arianism belonging to Valens' denomination.
	+ Fritigern's insurrection began due to mistreatment and neglect by two officials, Lucipinus and Maximus, who also purportedly took children as slaves in exchange for cat and dog meat along with a failed ambush on him and his delegation that led to Fritigern declaring war on the Romans.

* Much of Fritigern's fate is unknown after 381 CE/AD, when many records afterwards lack any mentions of him--who was either killed in Greece by Arbogaust and Bauto, or deposed before the peace treaty with Romans--was reflected in video's statement of Fritigern not being their king at the time of their resettlement in Illyria.
Hannibal

* Wojack
* Chad

as well as the kingdom of Bithynia

**Hannibal** was the infamous Punic general who defeated the Roman armies in several battles like Cannae, who was later defeated by Scipio Africanus at the battle of Zama.

Hannibal was born in Carthage in 247 BC. After getting defeated in the First Punic War, his father, Hamilcar, made him swear an oath to one day destroy Rome. At this moment, the gods buffed all of Hannibals stats, which turned him into a Chad, and made him significantly smarter and stronger.

Then, Hamilcar(Hannibal's dad) would be killed, and replaced by his son in law, Hasdrubal, who signed a treaty with Rome promising not to cross the Ebro River in Hispania. Hasdrubal would then later be killed by a slave, and Hannibal would then attack the city of Saguntum, which was beyond the Ebro River, and thus starting the Second Punic War.

	+ Theodosius himself ordered the Goths as meat shield at Friggidus--earning the enmity of their commander Alaric--rather than Stilicho.
	+ Stilicho was selected to be a guardian for his sons due to being a trusted member of Theodosius' inner circle--also married to his adopted niece, Serena--rather than shilling for barbarians.
		- Furthermore, Stilicho's Vandal ancestry would have caused controversy among Roman aristocracy had he been appointed as his heir with his status as a regent being a compromise.
* Stilicho and Alaric had complicated relationship as both of them were rivals yet both of them collaborated on seizing Illyria--which had large populace and wealth--from Eastern Roman Empire authority.
* While the Thessalonica Massacre occurred in response to slaughter of a local Gothic garrison, the entire event occurred when the citizens attacked the local Gothic garrison for the arrest of a popular Charioteer on charges of homosexuality rather than refusal of submission to them.
* Opposite of "Unbiased History", Britannia actually expelled Constantine III's officials and appealed to the Saxons in exchange for defense against raiding Picts rather than being abandoned by Honorius to Germanic horde.
* Much of Constantius III's accomplishments in Gaul against Jovinus was actually done by Ataulf, who was already dead by the time Constantius III met the Goths at northern Hispania.

Michael VIII Palaiologos

**Michael VIII Palailogos** was the first Emperor of Palailogos dynasty and reconquered Byzantine Empire.

## Trivia

* His portrayal as either a Chad, Wojak, or Virgin would be less clear as he managed to recapture Constantinople and ended the Latin rule yet deposed George Mouzalon (a regent appointed by Theodore II), blinded John IV Laskaris (rightful heir of Theodore II), and his negligence of Anatolian frontiers (many of the rulers being loyalists to Theodore II).
	+ Chad portrayal: He would be shown as a heroic character with his less-then-stellar being blamed on (most likely Virgin) followers or result of sorcery by his enemies.

* He is a pagan but his writings had Christian style imagery, such as demonic power of Justinian in his controversial "Secret History" along with his religious panegyric tone on his more reliable works.

	+ Futhermore, Maxentius had a penchant for construction and commissioned Forum Romanorum and Basilica of Maxentius, the latter of which wasn't completed due to his death rather than laziness in contrary to Unbiased History.
	+ he also made the circus of Maximian

Placidia (Grandaugter)

**Galla Placidia** (390's-450) was the sister of Honorius and Arcadius, and mother of emperor Valentinian III and the traitorous Honoria.

## In "Unbiased History"

### **"Barbarians at the Gates"**

Galla Placidia is first seen after Alaric sacked Rome, being forcefully married to Athaulf. She would later give birth to a rape-child, who would die soon after. She was rescued by Constantius III and returned to the Western Empire, where she would be arranged to marry Constantius by her brother, resulting in the birth of both Honoria and Valentinian III. When Constantius died of a fever, she fled to Constantinople alongside her children after being lusted after by Honorius.

### **"The Fall of Rome"**

Galla Placidia arrived to the Eastern Empire to arrange the marriage of her son Valentinian and Theodosius II's daughter Licinia. As it happened, Honorius just died, and Galla, objecting to Castinus putting Joannes on the throne, forced Theodosius to claim Valentinian as the rightful Western Emperor, sending two German generals, Ordabur and Aspar, to kill Joannes. Galla oversaw Joannes' execution by a soldier Ordabur had manipulated, only to see a group of Huns arrive to the city she was in, led by Aetius, being told to end this petty conflict. As a reward, Aetius was granted the title of co-Magister Militum.

To spite Aetius, she revoked his position as Magister Militum, giving it to Bonifacius, sparking a civil war which her side would win, had it not been for Aetius pulling up with a Hunnic horde again, giving him the rank of Magister Militum once again. Her last moment would be ordering Valentinian to pardon Honoria, who had recently sent a letter to Attila, dying soon after.

## "Trivia"

* It is well-known at this point that Galla Placidia was not forced into marriage with nor was raped by Athaulf. In fact, the marriage was born out of respect to Athaulf from Honorius for defeating two rebelling Gallo-Roman emperors.
* She along with Aelia Pulcheria (her niece), and Aelia Eudocia (the wife of her brother-in-law) would compete for influence over Theodosius II (her brother-in-law), which led him to invade Italy to both oust Joannes and install her son--Valentinian III--as the Emperor in the west.
Gladius

The **Gladius** was a type of short sword use by the Roman Army since the founding of Rome. Despite not being as effective to slash enemies due to it's size and other factors, it was incredibly dangerous in a close formations and at short range,contrary to most of it's predecessor,the Gladius was used mostly to hurt and stab,not neccesary to inflict death,witch fit the general idea of roman millitary equipement.

## Trivia

* The Gladius used by the Romans is based of an Iberian sword used by celts (more specificly Celtiberians) mercenaries during the Punic Wars,considered superior to the pseudo Xiphos used in the early days.
* Actually, the sword used in the series is not a Gladius, but an Imperial Sword of Elder Scrolls.
	+ it should be noted than the Imperial sword is model after the spatha,fitting the link between the empire of the game and the roman empire.
* It was replaced by the longer Spatha after the Comitatenses were introduced.
* It should be noted than the Gladius isn't a single type of sword but got four different types:Hispaniensis,Mainz,Fulhman and finally Pompeii,who serve as prototype for the Spatha.
Paris of Troy

Paris was a Prince of Troy who was kidnapped by the Queen of Sparta. He refused to resist out of fear of being impolite, but her cuckolded husband twisted the event to save face and destroy the city of Troy.

## "Trivia"

* As Unbiased History was based on unbridled bias for Romans, which many claim lineage from Troys from Iliad, Paris in this version deviated from Iliad's version where he instigated the ten years conflict with Achean Greeks after kidnapping the Queen of Sparta behind her husband's back.
* In one account, Paris purportedly fled to Egypt but the Pharaoh took his belongings--along with Helen--which was seized as a form of punishment after Paris was caught attempting to loot their treasures.
Leo II

Leo II was the Grandson of Leo The Thracian and the son of Zeno. Leo’s reign was short and ineffective becoming co emperor with his father at the age 6 not being able to do much due to his young age and dying a year later in 476 due to an illness at age 7.

## Trivia

* If Leo II appeared he would have been most likely drawn as a wojak due to his short and ineffective reign and due to most of the members of the Leonid dynasty being drawn as such.

* It’s been speculated throughout history that Leo’s death may have been caused by his father poisoning him to take all power. However due to the high level of child mortality Leo most likely died of an illness.
Hadrian

* Emperor
* Elderly

**Hadrian** was a 2nd century Roman Emperor and third member of the Nerva-Antonine dynasty, also know as the "*Five Good Emperors"*. He was the adopted son of Trajan (his father was Trajan's first cousin) and named his heir by the latter in his deathbed. The reign of Hadrian was know for his great construction projects and travels across the empire.

## "Trivia"

* Along with Trajan, Hadrian may also be homosexual or bisexual (due to lack of children and preference towards male than female) with both of them also being lovers as well.
* Hardrian was called "Greekling" due to his immense love of Greek culture rather than his love of young Greek males.
* In contrast to Unbiased History, according to writings of Cassius Dio, Hadrian was known for his bitterness towards Apollodorus of Damascus that led to his banishment and later death by Hadrian due to his harsh criticism towards his design for Temple of Venus and Roma.
	+ Furthermore, Hadrian may also be responsible of Trajan's staff--especially Quietus--rather than independent acts by his Praetorian Prefect Attianus, who was kicked out due to fear of his power historically.

* Hadrian was considered one of the most controversial among the Five Good Emperors due to his execution of Trajan's former appointees--especially Quietus--and violent reprisal on Bar Kokhba revolt.
* Once a governor asked him for advice on what to do with local Christians. Despite being a pagan, Hadrian said that being a Christian was not a bad thing and that Roman law should intervene if one committed a serious crime (robbery, defiance of authority , murder, etc) becoming one of the few emperors to have tolerance and fair treatment to that religion until the arrival of Constantine I.
	+ The irony of this situation is that once the Catholic Church and the rest of the branches of Christianity spread around the world, they classified people attracted to their same sex (like Hadrian himself) as worthy of persecution and execution.
Alexander (Byzantine Emperor)

**Alexander**, or Alexander[b] Porphyrogenitus, was the emperor reigning after his brother Leo VI the Wise while also acting as regent to his nephew, Constantine VII Porphyrogenitus. In contrast to his brother, Alexander spend more time in debauchery than ruling with the saving grace being his reign lasting for 13 years as a result of dying from heatstroke as a result of playing polo.

## Trivia

* Due to his mismanagement (namely ceasing tributes to Bulgars that sparked another war with them) and spiteful attitude to his brother (reappointing Leo's rivals), he would most likely be Virgin (or Chad if Dovahhatty decided to go with the route of Nero and Caligula).
* Many chronicles--which showed universal disdain for him--suggested that Alexander plan to castrate or blind Constantine VII Porphyrogenitus, but relented due to popularity of Leo and by extension Constantine.
* As Alexander was born after Michael's death, his clear paternity to Basil I meant that he would have been designated an heir.
Claudius II Gothicus

Claudius Gothicus, or Claudius II Gothicus, was one of the Roman Emperors during the Third Century Crisis. He is known for defeating a large Gothic horde in the Black Sea, after which he got the name "Gothicus".

## "Trivia"

* It is theorized that Claudius along with Aurelian may have been one of the officers who murdered Gallienus.
Ospedale

**Ospedale** is one of the monsters of Superior King Gray and the main antagonist of the episode Turbo of Z. Rangers, Superleague.

## History

Very little is revealed about Ospendale's past, he is alien cyborg with the ability to move like a car. He would later be called upon to destroy the Rangers at the behest of Superior King Gray. With that he soon attacked the Rangers trying to run over them, although they managed to dodge Ospedale's attacks, after which Lightmon and Doctor appear and help Ospedale in the fight, with Lightmon facing the Rangers Blue and Black, and Doctor facing Yellow and Pink, while Ospedale faces Red. In fight, Ospedale casts his eye on the Rangers and runs them over, causing them to retreat.

After that, the Rangers started to analyst Ospedale and realized that if he gave too much damage to him he would be vulnerable. With that the Rangers are soon called for but a fight when Ospedale starts attacking people. With that in the beginning of the fight, Ospedale dominates the Rangers, lauches his electric sparks and run over them. However the Rangers soon attack Ospedale together in their turbo, weak Ospedale, the Rangers take advantage and destroy it using their Mega Saber. After that, Doctor uses his pills and makes Ospedale grow, Ospedale fights the Rangers' Megazord, but is defeated and killed when he Rangers use their Super Missile.
Aetius

Aetius Training his troops

Flavius Aetius was the de facto leader of the Western Roman Army, which he was "officially" a Magister Militum under Emperor Valentinian III. In his youth, he was given to the Huns by the Goths before his escape into Western Roman Empire.

## In "Unbiased History"

### **"The Fall of Rome"**

In the earlier years, Aetius was a hostage of the Huns, and after returning to Rome, was a supporter of Emperor Joannes (r. 423-425) who succeeded Honorius (r. 395-423), before he was deposed in favor of Valentinian III (r. 425-453) two years later.

Upon being promoted to the position of the Magister Militum by the de facto Empress Galla Placidia, the mother of the useless leech of an emperor Valentinian III, he fought against and deposed the dissident general Bonafacius, who usurped the position of Magister Militum from him, by leading a contingent of Huns against him, and then sending the army back, as he was not their true commander.

After securing his position as Magister Militum, he fought against the Burgundians, Bacaudae, and Visigothic Barbarians, containing them in their Foederati lands. However, he stopped fighting against them, as he faced the enemy much more barbaric than mankind has ever witnessed: the Huns. Allying with the Germanic Barbarians and conscripting everyone willing to defend the Empire across the Western Roman Empire, he faced against Attila the Hun at the Catalaunian Plains and routed the Huns, saving the course of history. For this, he was known as the *Terror of Barbarians*.

Aetius is seen in the ending montage alongside Stilicho and Majorian, with the shadows of Ricimer, Odoacer, Attila, Alaric, and Geiseric in the background

## "Trivia"

* Aetius's father, Flavius Gaudentius, was from Scythia--which is a province of Roman Empire rather than a nomadic ethnic group, though some have hinted his Gothic origin.
* Aetius was in his teens during his "stay" with the Goths and Huns, latter of whom treated him relatively well and aided him in quashing Germanic barbarians and Eastern Roman Empire during Emperor Joannes' reign.
* His role of leading his Hunnic mercenaries in destroying the first Burgundian Kingdom in the Rhine along with the death of their king Gundahar would inspire Nibelung Saga.
* Ironically enough, Flavius and Attila may have been friends as latter fought as one of many Hunnic mercenaries for civil war between Joannes and Valentinian III before his rise to power.
* Historically, Aetius blocked Valentinian III's proposal to marry his daughter to Majorian due to his own maintenance of his influence rather than the demands of his Germanic wife.
* His scar is based on Naruto.
Gallus

**Flavius Claudius Constantius Gallus was a** Caesar in the eastern provinces of the Roman Empire from 351 to 354, as *Caesar* under emperor Constantius II, his cousin. A grandson of emperor Constantius Chlorus and empress Flavia Maximiana Theodora, and a son of Julius Constantius and Galla, he was among the few male members of the imperial family to survive the purge that followed Constantine's death. Under Constantius II, Gallus served as deputy emperor, based in Antioch and married to Constantius' sister Constantina. He dealt with a Jewish revolt in the years 351-352. Gallus ultimately fell out of favor with Constantius after he proved to be a shitty Caesar murdering pagans to steal their money and was executed, being replaced as *Caesar* by his younger half-brother Julian.
