Description
The Crisis of the Third Century (235–284 AD) was a period of near-total collapse of the Roman Empire, marked by political instability (military anarchy), economic disintegration, epidemics, and foreign invasions. In this video, we take a closer look at what happened during those decades: more than 20 emperors ruled in 50 years, most of them generals who were assassinated, leading to hyperinflation and territorial fragmentation — a crisis only overcome through the reforms of Diocletian.
