| | Constantine III (usurper) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
 | | Fearful that several cousins of the emperor Honorius in Spain, which was a stronghold of the House of Theodosius and loyal to the ineffectual emperor, would organize an attack from that direction while troops under Sarus and Stilicho attacked him from Italy in a pincer maneuver, he struck first at Spain. | | | Obviously upset that Constantine could no longer effectively defend them, the Roman inhabitants of Britain and Armorica rebelled and expelled his officials. | | | Although Gerontius committed suicide in Spain, and Constantius later suppressed the revolt of Jovinus, Roman rule never returned to Britain after the death of Constantine III: as Procopius later explains, "from that time it remained under [the rule] of tyrants." |

| | The news of his murder was conveyed with almost supernatural speed from Syracuse to Constantinople; and Constantine, the eldest of his sons, inherited his throne without being the heir of the public hatred. | | | His wife had been thrust into a monastery, and the subjects of Romanus had embraced the rigid maxim of the civil law, that a prisoner in the hands of the enemy is deprived, as by the stroke of death, of all the public and private rights of a citizen. | | | The spirit of Roman freedom revived the ancient and awful examples of the judgment of tyrants, and the Imperial culprits were deposed and condemned as the authors of the death of Constantine. |

| | Many of the Gallo-Roman aristocrats who had occupied high positions under Constantine transferred their services to Jovinus, a substantial number of them (“multi nobiles” according to Gregory of Tours) being executed after his fall. | | | Dardanus, however, immediately had him executed, it is thought to prevent Jovinus revealing to Honorius the true extent of Dardanus’ own involvement with the Gallic usurpers. | | | Constantine III had drawn much of his initial support from the Gallic aristocracy after his landing in Gaul and many Gallic nobles stayed loyal to him even after Britain and Spain broke away. |

| | This had happened again in AD 406, but the usurper, Constantine III, had become embroiled in Gaul and was trapped in Arles by another barbarian horde. | | | Britain had long been a bolt-hole for pretenders to the imperial purple, and in times of crisis it had a history of seceding from the empire and looking after its own affairs. | | | In the wake of this failure, the citizens of Britain seem to have thrown out Constantine's officials and turned to the emperor for help - but he rejected them. |

| | The spirit of Christian charity, however, gradually leavened the heathen mass, softening the hearts of rulers and improving the condition of the ruled, especially of the poor, the slave, the prisoner. | | | The close union of Church and State, begun with Constantine and continued under his successors, the Roman emperors of East and West, led to much good, but probably to more evil. | | | The lay episcopacy which the princes assumed well-nigh reduced the medieval Church to a state of abject vassalage, the secular clergy to ignorance and worldliness, the peasant to bondage and often to misery. |
