The Life of Titus Flavius Domitianus

In the aftermath of Nero's suicide, The Year of the Four Emperors saw a swift turnover of leadership in the Roman Empire, with Galba, Otho, and Vitellius briefly ruling. This short biography by Suetonius focuses on Vespasian, a military commander who, with the support of his loyal soldiers and allies, defeated Vitellius to secure his place as emperor, marking the beginning of the Flavian dynasty.
