Description: (Roman general)
Decimus Clodius Albinus emerged as a Roman imperial claimant in 193 following the assassination of Emperor Pertinax. Initially aligning with Septimius Severus, Albinus eventually rebelled against him, sparking a civil war in 196. Known for his leadership in the military, Albinus commanded the allegiance of the legions in Britain and Hispania. His time as emperor was fraught with political scheming and battles, culminating in his defeat and death in combat the following year.
