shared by kevin cruz on 12 Nov 09 - Cached

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]

  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.

  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.
