What is Septimius Severus known for?

Septimius Severus brought great stability to a teetering Roman Empire after the nightmare reign of Commodus, and the do-nothing man who bought the title of Emperor, Julius D…idianus. He made the borders of the Empire safe on all sides, from Caledonia in the north of today's U.K. to Mesopotamia in the East, by waging largely successful wars. He was rarely defeated militarily ; Hatra in today's northern Iraq was a RARE exception. Septimius commanded his troops in person and thus traveled to areas where previous Roman Emperors had not much visited, such as Syria [then a larger, more powerful province than today's nation of Syria.] He recouped the massive financial losses of previous irresponsible Emperors. Septimius was one of the few Emperors to have conscientiously re-filled the Treasury to brimming over. He even made sure to store up for the populace of the Empire large quantities of Olive Oil, a necessary staple. Whereas previously there had been two Roman Emperors from the distant province of Spain, thus far there had not been any from Roman North Africa. Septimius built up and added to his home town of Leptis Magna, the magnificent ruins of which continue to awe tourists from all over the world to this day. He also built an amazing complex on the Palatine Hill in Rome called the Septizodium, which has survived only in paintings and sketches. He refurbished so many edifices, from the Temple of the Vestal Virgins in the Roman Forum, all the way to Hadrian's Wall in Britain [both much visited today]. He was also a seeker of religious Truth who investigated ancient spiritual teachings. He has been thus vastly underrated by historians who seem to be intrigued with the caprices of many other Emperors. He was a more ascetic type who ate sparingly and fought alongside his troops without demanding special luxuries for himself. He was one of the VERY FEW Emperors of Rome to have a happy and stable marriage. There was never a whisper of any scandal connected with his family life. Perhaps this is why European and American historians have taken relatively little interest in his reign. They seem to have preferred gawking at the flamboyant or dangerous types who occupied the imperial throne of Rome. In contrast, Septimius Severus was stable, careful, sober and hard-working up to the last minute of his life. His accomplishments should become much better known and studied ! (MORE)

What are septimius severus accomplishments?

Severus was able to reverse many of the destabilizing trends that were set in motion by Commodus. He filled the treasury where Commodus had depleted it. Severus also gave Rome… stability after a very wild and unstable year of five emperors (193 AD) and gave Rome one of those rare things, a dynasty. Unfortunately that dynasty was largely a bad one. Severus was mostly a victorious general too, adding the last new provinces to the Roman Empire after his expedition into Persia in 197. He also increased the size of the army by three legions and increased the size and quality of the cavalry arm. Furthermore, he gave the army a pay raise for the first time since the reign of Domitian (80-97AD). However this came with a severe price, the enlarged army became a serious drag on the Roman economy, one that only got to be worse as time progressed and Severus put increasing power into the army in order to decrease the power of the senate. Severus also built up the Imperial Palace on the Palatine, including a very "baroque" structuret called the Septimizodium on the southeast side of that hill. He also greatly enhanced his hometown, Lepcis Magnum, formerly a sleepy port town on the Libyan coast and increased the role of Northwest Africa in Roman trade by making Lepcis a major center in exporting African grain to Rome herself. Overall, the accomplishments of Septimius Severus were a mixed bag. He reintroduced stability in the capital, but at the cost of making the Roman Empire a strictly military dictatorship. His dynasty consisted of his sons Caracalla who murdered his own brother so as not to share the vestments of power. Caracalla's nephew Elagabalus succeeded him after an interim and is regarded as the worst, most decadent and least prepared to rule. Elagabalus was succeeded by his able but young cousin Alexander Severus who tried to be a model emperor and got assassinated by the army for his troubles. Severus's larger military saw his enhancement of their power as a sign that the military was to be the arbiter of all future problems and when Alexander Severus was killed it kicked off 50 years of military anarchy. Severus was the last emperor to die peacefully until Diocletion (284-311 AD) For further details, please read Birley's Severus, the African Emperor; Brauer's The Young Emperors, and my upcoming graphic novel: Age of Iron and Rust ~Doug Welch (MORE)
