Description: (Roman General and the Last Ruler)
Syagrius, a Roman general, was the final ruler of a Roman rump state in northern Gaul known as the Kingdom of Soissons. He governed the Gallo-Roman enclave between the Somme and the Loire following the collapse of central rule in the Western Empire. Despite historical debate over his title of "Rex Romanorum" given by Gregory of Tours, Syagrius held control of his domain until his defeat by Clovis I, marking the conclusion of Western Roman rule outside of Italy.
