NEW MAP: Europe 287: Carausian Revolt (early 287) https://buff.ly/3bL5bQh In 286 Diocletian appointed his deputy Maximian as co-emperor to rule the West while he himself ruled the East. Almost immediately the Germanic tribes invaded Gaul while Frankish and Saxon pirates raided the Channel. To deal with the pirates, Maximian placed the general Carausius in charge of the Channel fleet, but, after being accused of corruption, Carausius fled to Britain with the fleet and proclaimed himself emperor. #thirdcentury #carausius #ancientrome #romanbritain #ancientbritain #cartographer #europe #europeanhistory #franks #historias #historicalmaps #historyinthemaking #historylovers #historymuseum #historyteacher #map #mapmaking #mapping #maps #roman #romancivilwar #romancivilwars #romanempire #romanhistory #romans #saxons #teachinghistory #worldatlas #worldhistory #newmap (at Boulogne-Sur-Mer, Nord-Pas-De-Calais, France) https://www.instagram.com/p/CPJ2jD6APX8/?utm_medium=tumblr -- source link
