And the subsequent emperors, like Aurelian, basically just ignore Christians unless they're forced to pay attention.

I mean, it's one of the problems that still religious history is often treated in slight isolation from wider history. I mean, after all, the Christians have been there ever since Augustus, but they have been low profile except for those rare moments of persecution.

The standard Roman view is the one that Trajan famously said to Pliny the Younger, which is, if you meet a Christian who insists on being Christian and won't then back down, you can go ahead and execute them, but don't look for them. ist Trajan's explicit instruction. Don't go looking. We're just otherwise going to let them get on with it.

And it's interesting that it was in the heart of the third century crisis that they changed that, which does suggest that Christians are becoming higher profile, as well as this great concern with what the Romans called the Pax Deorum, the peace of the gods, which the Christians are disrupting, well, by going around saying the gods don't exist.

Wenn man sich eine Karte des Regens von Gallienus anschaut, 253 bis 268 bis zum Herzen der Krise, sieht es so aus, als ob die Empire losgeht. Gaul, Britannien, Spanien gehen einen Weg, Palmaire geht den anderen Weg, Gallienus ist im Mittleren. Gallienus in unseren Gründen ist größtenteils enttäuscht.

Nichtsdestotrotz, weil er nicht den kleinsten Eindruck gemacht hat, seinen Vater von Persien zurückzubekommen. Aber Gallienus ist eigentlich der Anfang der Rückkehr. Was er konzentriert war, war in seinen Territorien, die imperialistische Administration zu bauen und vor allem die Armee zu reorganisieren, um eine viel stärkere Kavalierarmee zu haben und viel mobiler zu sein.

Now, by the time the Goths are beaten back by Gallienus and Claudius Gothicus, you're beginning to reap the benefits of that, and then the man who sees it through is Aurelian. Now, Aurelian only rules from 270 to 275, so it's not a hugely long reign. Aber trotzdem, in dieser Zeit hat Aurelian die Gothen gewonnen und beide Ausbrechergruppen zerstört.

Es hat geholfen, dass in beiden Fällen der ursprüngliche Founder von diesem Punkt aus ermordet wurde. Aber trotzdem hat Aurelian nach dem Ende seines Reiches fast das gesamte Empire zurückgezogen. at least on a map, to look as it had at the beginning. Only one territory is actually abandoned. It's the region of Dacia. So roughly speaking, modern Romania.
