The Roman Empire began to have two emperors during the reign of Diocletian, who established the Tetrarchy in AD 285. This system divided the empire into four regions, each governed by a co-emperor and a subordinate, to improve administrative efficiency and address military challenges. The Tetrarchy marked a significant shift in governance, allowing for a more organized response to the empire's issues.
