Constans

*"I hear an autistic screech in the distance... my, my...lost to his ultragay younger brother.."*

- Constans after the failed invasion of Constantine II

**Constans I (Flavius Julius Constans) (322/323?-350)** was the youngest son of Constantine I and ruled the empire from 337 to 350 before being assassinated.

## Appearance

Unlike his brothers or any previous or later emperor, Constans I is an male Ideal GF similar to the twink sex slaves of old. As such, his eyes are entirely black and without a pupil and he also has no mouth, he has short brown hair, accompanied by a pink bow inside a laurel wreath.

He wore a white and pink dress with gold inlays.

## In 'Unbiased History

### Early life and Succession

he is briefly introduced along with the rest of Constantine's children. His next appearance is alongside his brothers, watching in the background while their father mourns the death of their older brother Crispus.

Much later on, while Constantine is deciding his succession, he analyses his sons, expressing surprise that Constans is a son of his. Constans replies by referring to himself as Constantine's 'very gay son' with pride. After Constantine expresses his annoyance, Constans adds that he could refer to him as a daughter if he wanted. Constantine's plans was to give Constans Italy and its surroundings.

### Reign and Death

After the death of his father and the massacre of his extended family, he and his brothers divided the empire among the 3 (although in reality he was still a minor to rule on his own, so Constantine II had to serve as some kind of regent until he turned 18).

While Constantius II fought the Persians and Constantine II craved more territory, Constans spent his reign having gay sex every day and neglecting his duties as emperor. Such was the carelessness that the recently recovered province of Dacia was lost and ended up giving up its part of Africa to Constantine II under threat of war, but did not give the lands of Carthage as it was part of Italy (which is reasonable because Carthage was Italy's bitch).

Already being of legal age, he had no reason to listen to his brothers for government decisions; This caused Constantine II (who was still angry about Carthage) to try to attack Constans and claim territory for being the older brother, only to be ambushed near Aquileia and killed.

after that incident, the empire was split between the remaining brother and Constans passed a new law, that ban same-sex marriges (but no gay sex, wich was a bit hypocritical of his). later on he decided to give asylum to various Nicean bishops exiled by his brother, becoming a Nicean in the process and failing to create an ecumenical council. Seeing this, he threatened Constantius II with war if he did not leave the exiles in peace and to avoid a war with the Persians on the one hand and a civil war on the other, Constantius accepted, once he resolved his administration matters he returned to his vice of gay sex for days. His behavior caused the legions on the frontiers to gradually cease to be loyal to him.

This led to a military revolt under Magnentius, commander of the Rhine legions and Constans was chased and killed in Helena (modern Elne/Elna), fulfilling a prophecy which stated that he would die in the arms of his grandmother, also called Helena.

## "Trivia"

* Constans along with Constantine II and Constantius II were instrumental in Massacre of the Princes, which all of Constantine's male heirs--except Julian and his half brothers--were killed.
* Due to the Christianization after Constantine The Great, Constans' homosexuality was seen as abhorrent along with possible negative writings by succeeding Emperors, especially Constantius II.
	+ Even then, non-Christian Romans would not favor Constans as they tend to accept pederasty (older man with younger man) rather than a young Emperor engaging in sexual relations with older or similarly aged man.
		- In fact, he would have been portrayed as a Chad if he had practice pederasty accepted by the Romans.

* He was actually a good Emperor; as he solidified the reforms carried up by Diocletian and Constantine, dealt with invading Sarmatians and Franks in his domain, and rooted out corruption in the government.

* He was the last Emperor to visit Britain, if you rule out Manuel II Palaiologos.
* He may compare to Probus, whom did the same thing as Constans, which was solidifying Aurelian and Gallienus's reforms, but and their fate was similar: Murdered by their own troops as the troops wanted to get rid of their "despotic" rule, and seize power for themselves.
* In fact, he wasn't killed because of his vices, but cause by his soldiers' jealousy about power especially Magnentius.
* It is possible that had Constans not been an ultragay degenerate, he would've been depicted as a chad.
