Battle of the Milvian Bridge - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia - 16 views

  • By 312, however, Constantine and Maxentius were engaged in open hostility with one another, although they were brothers-in‑law through Constantine's marriage to Fausta, sister of Maxentius. In the spring of 312, Constantine gathered his forces and decided to oust Maxentius himself. He easily overran northern Italy, winning two major battles: the first near Turin, the second at Verona, where the praetorian prefect Ruricius Pompeianus, Maxentius' most senior general, was killed. [3]
    • Jaqueline Ruiz
       
      In 312 they fought the war.Constanstine was married to Fausta the sister of Maxentius.Fausta took the side of Constanstine.Maxentius traps worked fro himself.
    • Jaqueline Ruiz
       
      Maxentius plan was that they get Constantine to get on the bridge.So he sent some of his soildiers to attack him to get him on the bridge.Then they got him on the bridge but they retreated so then that got Maxentius mad and he went on the bridge and then the bridge fell apart.
  • Flaminia road across the Tiber River into Rome (the bridge stands today at the same site, somewhat remodelled, named in Italian Ponte Milvio or sometimes Ponte Molle, soft bridge

  • Battle of the Milvian Bridge
    • Jaqueline Ruiz
       
      The battleof milvian bridge was a war between Maxentius and constanstine.The war was fought on a bridge.The point was that who ever got across the bridge first won the war.since that was the piont Maxentius had aplan.but his plan traped him.

  • took place between the Roman Emperors Constant i ne I and Maxentius on 28 October 312. Constantine won the battle and started on the path that led him to end the Tetrarchy and become the sole ruler of the Roman Empire . Maxentius drowned in the Tiber during the battle.
    • Jaqueline Ruiz
       
      Maxentius plan was to get constanstine on the bridge.once that was accomplished they pull a rope that would make the bridge fall apart.acctually this plan worked forconstanstine without even planing it.Constanstine got amxentius to the bridge and then the bridge started to fall apart.Maxentius soliders tried to get the sticks and keep them together but the poart that they walked on was the part that was falling apart.Afterall maxentius died.

  • Vespasian (69-79), Titus (79-81), and Domitian (81-96).
    • Jaqueline Ruiz
       
      This must have been really coll that the dad ruled than the son and then the other son.So if Titus was emperor first then Domination then was he older.Im guessing older.

Nerva - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia - 9 views

shared by Jaqueline Ruiz on 26 Oct 09 - Cached
  • Nerva had scarcely accepted the purple from the assassins of Domitian before he discovered that his feeble age was unable to stem the torrent of public disorders which had multiplied under the long tyranny of his predecessor. His mild disposition was respected by the good; but the degenerate Romans required a more vigorous character, whose justice should strike terror into the guilty.[56]
    • Jaqueline Ruiz
       
      so then nerva orderd to kill Domitian.wow if it is like that why did he order t kill him

    • Jaqueline Ruiz
       
      This is the colum of Trajan.It was 1265 ft tall.It was covered of a buch of little carvings on the pole part.Supposly the youtube video said that all of the carving Trajan was in them
