Description:
(Emperor)
Joannes, also known as John, transitioned from a senior civil servant to become the Western Roman emperor in 423. His reign was turbulent, facing uprisings in Gaul and disruptions in the grain supply. Despite seeking peaceful resolutions with the Eastern Emperor, Joannes was drawn into war due to the appointment of a new successor. Deposed in a civil conflict, Joannes met a violent demise in mid-425, altering the political dynamics of the Western Roman Empire significantly.
