Vespasian was the emperor of Chads. He died of diarrhea, but he felt death closing in and stood up, saying "It would be unfit for an emperor not to die standing". And so he died: standing like an emperor. As I said, the absolute emperor of Chads.
Wait a minute; he took power in 69 AD, and died at the age of 69 while joking about his own death and subsequent deification due to deadly diarrhea? Best emperor ever.
That’s not too ten material. Otherwise a crap ton of third century generals would be top ten material. He won a civil war and brought a brief moment of instability to an end. I guess did some building and that was it. He was decent but his reign wasn’t some frest thing.

Really liked your Roman emperor ranking videos. If there was one small thing that I think is missing is that it would have been nice to also put their date of reign next to their name and ranking when introducing them.
Vespasian took ill while at Reate. He actually continued performing the functions of office while ill and this was when he made his joke "Alas, I think I am becoming a God" - which was about the Senatorial practice of deifying Emperors after they passed away. He also did a lot more than mentioned in the video. He put a stop to the practice of using freedman as imperial executives which greatly cut back on corruption. Also crucial was he got himself named Censor and used the power to restock the Senate specifically with individuals from families who were active business people and not decadent (and who came from outside Rome in Italy and the provinces). In essence he restocked the political cupboard with people who were not by nature professional politicans. Out of this new Senate we got Nerva, Trajan, Hadrian, Antoninus Pius and Aurelius. Fascinating emperor.

Disregarding the fact that this video was birthed from an oversight, it is a great but concise history of Vespasian's rule. This is the first video of yours I have watched, and while I may just be one solitary drop in the 5.73k-strong ocean, you have a new subscriber. Keep up the good work, contubernalis.
Fun fact is that Nero's advisors facing Galba's revolt grouped legions into three groups: supporters of Galba, uncommitted legions, and loyalists. Most of the legions were uncommited and they feared would just switch to whoever was winning. They considered there were only 3 groups to be loyalists, the 3 Legions in Britannia who could not be notified without Galba intercepting a message, the one in Africa, and the legions in Judea. I'm a bit mystified as to why they considered Vespasian and all centurions in Judea loyalists. Vespasian might have been loyal to the imperial family at one point, but Nero made it clear Vespasian was out of favor after he fell asleep, so I have no idea why they expected him to come save Nero. Nero committed suicide before they could summon help, but I suspect help wouldn't come even if they had asked.
IDK, he could surprise you and actually go and help Nero. I don't think Vespasian was planning to take the throne from Nero. But of course, since Nero was lost anyway he thought "Why not myself? I bet I can be a better emperor than those clowns" and he was, in the end. We will never know for sure.
For anyone that thinks Vespasian was interesting, Robert Fabbri has a series about him, it’s historical fiction, since while the general details of his life are known, all the small details aren’t so well known (not surprising considering how long ago it was) just an enjoyable series to read.
I'm actually reading this serious! Currently at book 7 (The Furies of Rome). It's because of these books Vespasian became my favorite emperor Besides I love Caenis! When Vespasian got Emperor he should have change the law so he could finally marry her. I mean Claudius got changed the law so he could marry Agrippina the Younger, so why shouldn't Vespasian do it as well?
There's another book where I first learned of vespasian and the Flavian dynasty but I can remember the name. It talks abt the Roman military and the year of the four emperors which concludes with titus sacking Jerusalem and vespasian named emperor. It has many pictures that have diagrams with information. I read it in grade school
Vespasian is my favorite Emperor. Hard working dude, more blue collar than most Emperors. He was famous for his salty, ribald sense of humor in addition to being a great general and administrator. Famously honest, Vespasian was one of the few Roman governors who didn't fatten his wallet at the local's expense, and he later became, arguably, the greatest Roman and the greatest Emperor.
By the way for those wondering this is the same legate Vespasian from Simon Scarrow’s Roman Series of books. We know this because the Legate was very good at making friends (also his movements correspond with that of the stories)
He was one of the best. Begin financial restauration, gave stability, cleaned the mess and was a very good general too. And one of the few to die because of a disease, not by sword. IMHO, right behind Augustus and Traian.
@@iDeathMaximuMII And there do we have the chance to do Drusus. (Postumus would be good too - pratical joking hot head? Yes. Loyal friend and potential hero? Also Yes.)
Could you please do either Justinian II or Justin II? They both seem like pretty average emperors in the first half of their reign but the second part of their respective reigns, especially Justinian II's, is amazingly interresting.
Late but the one reason Domitian is as high as he is according to Spectrum is because he is the only Roman Emperor to have lowered inflation and fix the Roman economy. Case in point, whereas other Roman Emperors were debasing the currency, Domitian raised the value of a silver coin to about 97-98%. There was no other Emperor that can say that. Not even Diocletian's economic reforms were able to fix it and so he started over with the soldius, aka the stereotypical gold coin. Edit: Foolishly gave Domitian's accomplishment to Diocletian.
I spent half an hour scanning the previous list moving backwards (as I estimated he'd be pretty well placed) looking for where you'd slotted Vespasian in! Now, if anything, I'm pretty relieved it was just an inadvertent omission on your part.
Good piece, nice correction you followed up with a pretty decent documentary. was about to comment till the line below was discovered , what about Vespasian? Good work...
It depens from what point of view you want to see him. As a Republican, he can be one of the top 10, or one of the worst by just, you known, destroying that politic system and finishing any changes to fix that system. As a men, well, he was a bastard, how didn't have any problem to use everything to be at power. You're in debt?, well run to the greek islands with any excuse (like going to study), get captured by pirates, double down your ransom and return with an army to earn all the money from the ransom+spoils and pay your debts (don't forget to chop the pirates heads) Yes, very nice guy. As an "emperor", maybe, he saw that the Repúblic was a mummy, and needed a stronger leadership so, finishing it was better in long term and give Rome like 200 years more of life. Overall, between 5 and 15. Good one, but it's a men that its difficult to say if it was good or just, someone how just cares only for himself more than Rome
Making Vespasian number 11 doesn't make any sense. Look at the empire during his rule and the empire during the much higher rated Marcus aurelius's rule. I think Vespasian is number six or seven. I could list a lot of reasons but I don't want to.
3:51 who is Gaius Licinius Lucianus? I can’t seem to find/figure out how to spell that name on Google but I am curious why he’s mentioned specifically and represented as the Chad face
Vespasian was the only emperor to “perform miracles” in his lifetime. Healed the lame with his touch, blind man with his spittle. Sound like anyone you’ve heard of? Also he was proclaimed the Jewish messiah by Rabbi Ben Zakkai, Josephus, Suetonius & Tacitus. Vespasian & Titus even used the messianic star on their coins as political propaganda. Read the book Creating Christ to follow the trail even more.
Isn't it because of him and his granting of citizenship to countless residents of the Empire that the name Flavius starts to appear almost everywhere in the historical record a couple of centuries after his death?
To be honest, I think it was no coincidence that you … forgot? … Vespasian. He does not belong to any list, and be it one with Augustus on it, _he_ is in a class on his own. I would even put him in second place on your previous list.
3:00 for anyone who couldn’t understand what word he was using, it is “Muleteer” meaning a person who drives mules. The Latin name is “Mulio”. I didn’t know what he was talking about so I had to pause the video and spend a while trying to figure it out so I figured I’d share that in case anyone else also gets hung up on dumb little stuff like that lol
