Best Answer

Theodora encouraged Justinian to suppress the NIka riots in Constantinople with bloody violence instead of escaping. After that Justinian oversaw a period of greatness and splendour for the Byzantine Empire. His rule constituted a distinct epoch in the history of this empire.He was an autocrat rather tan a tyrant. Theodora became a champion of women's rights and a protector of dissident Christian doctrines.

Justinian supported mainstream Orthodox Christianity, while she supported a dissident doctrine. This created conflict on these matters and Justinian often obstructed Theodora.
