, Summary:
Introduction:
- The Roman Empire was not a monolith but rather a patchwork of diverse regions and
communities.
- The political, military, religious, economic and cultural leadership was passing from the
old elites of the cities to the provincials (Romans living outside of Italy).
- Emperor Diocletian (r.284-305) had divided the Empire into 4 parts, each ruled by
a different man.
- > recognition of the importance of the provinces.
- Provinces lost their centrality when barbarians moved in c.400-c.500
- Contributed to the political demise of the western half of the Roman
Empire
Provincialisation of the Empire (c.250-c.350):
- Crisis of the 3rd century
- 2 different groups from 2 different directions bore down on the frontiers of the
empire: East - Persians, north - barbarians (= not Roman citizens, not Latin- or
Greek-speaking)
- Made clear that the Roman Empire was too big to be ruled by one man,
especially when it was not peace time
- Roman response: reforms for new prominence to the provinces, expansion
of the army (consisting of Barbarians), fortifications.
- Pandemic
- Political succession crisis
- 235-284 20 different emperors
- > breakaway empires
- Reduced the quality of currency (more metal instead of silver) and higher taxes
(assessed on land and individual heads) to pay for army
- Emperor Diocletian (r.284-305): divided into 4 parts (Tetrarchy), later reduced to 2
(would later lead to east and west roman empire)
- Diocletian brought the crisis under control, Constantine brought it to an end.
