Показать описание
Emperor Elagabalus was the Roman emperor for a brief time from 218 to 222, but he packed a lot of scandal into those years. When it comes to the weirdest royals throughout history, Elagabalus might be the wildest of all. It's hard to separate the fact from the fiction in these legends about him, but with tales this eye-popping, who would want to?

"Guards, arrest yourselves! And then, execute each other!" Yeah, it's a wonder that he lasted even four years! What a guy! This must be where Hollywood gets its cues!

Emperor Claudius which everybody thought was a clutch and not to be taken seriously actually turned out to be a pretty good emperor as far as Roman emperors go that is.

There was an emperor who was great at measuring things.


He was an excellent ruler.

Were there any Roman emperors with dull uneventful reigns without controversy?

As for emperors, Theodosius II was worst. As for this guy, waterboarding already existed. The US army didn't discover it until they put down the Philippine independence war in 1900.

Hey, Weird History, I don't mind lending you my ear, but when should I expect to get it back? Sometime soon, I hope. I don't want to have to go searching for a new one that matches the one I still have. 😉😁
