Explanation: The Emperor Diocletian, often noted for his authoritarian tendencies, split the Roman Empire into four subdivisions ('Tetrarchy', 'rule of four'), each ruled by an Emperor. Two senior Emperors and two junior Emperors would each rule a fourth of the Empire, and live together in total harmony! ... like many of Diocletian's 'reforms', the idea did not work out, and was on shaky ground to begin with. The tetrarchy would die even before Diocletian did. |
