Gaius Fulvius Plautianus
Gaius or Lucius Fulvius Plautianus (c. 150 – 22 January 205) was a member of the Roman gens Fulvia. Like Sejanus, Perennis and Cleander, as head of the Praetorian Guard, he was formally extraordinarily powerful and influential in the administration of state affairs, and was involved with Julia Domna, the powerful wife of Septimius Severus, who played a prominent public and political role, in influencing the emperor's decisions.
Plautianus was originally from Leptis Magna, southeast of Carthage (modern Libya, North Africa). He was a maternal cousin and long-time friend of the Emperor Septimius Severus. Plautianus' father was another Gaius Fulvius Plautianus, born c. 130, whose sister, Fulvia Pia (c. 125 - after 198), was married to Severus' father Publius Septimius Geta.[1]
Plautianus was Praefectus vigilum (commander of the Vigiles in Rome) from 193 to 197.[2]
Plautianus was appointed prefect of the Praetorian Guard in 197.[3] Due to their friendship, Severus rewarded Plautianus with various honors, including a consular insignia, a seat in the Roman Senate and the Consulship of 203. During his consulship, Plautianus' image was minted on coins along with Severus' second son, Publius Septimius Geta.

He assisted Severus in administering the empire and became very wealthy and powerful. Severus made him his second in command. He competed with Julia Domna, the wife of the Emperor, in running the government (she too helped her husband run the empire, but was behind the scenes because of her gender). In 202, Plautianus married his daughter, Publia Fulvia Plautilla, to Caracalla (Severus’ first son and co-emperor) in Rome.[4] Plautianus began to conduct himself like a ruthless ruler, having those who opposed him assassinated or executed at will. He became so powerful that Caracalla and his effective mother, Julia Domna, began to be concerned. Aware of her reservations, Plautianus sought to disrepute, dishonor and disempower Julia. He had her servants and friends arrested and tortured in hopes of extracting some damaging testimony against her; however, he was unsuccessful in his efforts.[5]

The aforementioned marriage between Caracalla and Plautilla was not a happy one - In fact, Caracalla loathed both her and her father, threatening to kill them after becoming sole emperor.[6] When Plautianus discovered this, he plotted to overthrow Severus' family.[7][8]
This deeply troubled Julia Domna, who began plotting Plautianus's downfall. When Plautianus' treachery was discovered, the imperial family summoned him to the palace and ordered his death on 22 January 205. From this point onwards, the Empress became only the chief political advisor to her husband the Emperor; as Augusta of the empire, she was now the only influential person in the government to help Severus run
Other work Consul of the Roman Empire in the empire. After his death, at the request of Julia Domna, Plautianus’ property was confiscated, his name was erased from public monuments, and his son of the same name, his daughter and his granddaughter were exiled to Sicily. They were all strangled on Caracalla's orders in early 212.[8]

The History Files

The Sicambri were one of the main branches of the powerful fourth century confederation known as the Franks. As with most Germans, their origins lay in the aforementioned Scandinavia and the northern reaches of mainland Europe, but later legend claimed a homeland for them in the region of the Black Sea. They gradually migrated to the Rhine and were first documented when they were to be found occupying territory on the Lower Rhine valley (on the east bank, in what is now northern Belgium and the southern Netherlands), during the third century (the Period of Migration). This unsettled period eventually forced the creation of several new alliances and confederations, with the Franks being one of the biggest of the latter. They were one of several West Germanic federations, and were formed of elements of the Ampsivarii, Batavi, Bructeri, Chamavi, Chatti, Chattuarii, Cherusci, Frisii, Salians, Sicambri, Tencteri, Tubantes, and Usipetes. Most of these peoples were already living along the Rhine's northern borders in what was becoming known as Francia.

(Names listed as "Sicambri include, Genebald, Merovee, Chlodio, Dagobert, Chlodomer, over several generations)

... in 388, Gendobaud (aka Genobaud), Sunno and Marcomer lead an invasion of Salian Franks into the Roman provinces of Germania and Belgia. Their warriors break through the limes, destroying farmlands and killing people around the city of Cologne, before retreating across the border with their booty. Roman General Quintinus mounts a reprisal raid across the border but his troops are surrounded and beaten, and very few of them make it back.

A later source suggests that after the death of Sunno, Marcomer attempts to unite the Frankish tribes by proposing his own son, Pharamond as the first king, or perhaps 'high king' would be more appropriate. His success or failure is unrecorded, but in the early fifth century, Pharamond is certainly regarded as the first (high) king of the Franks.

From this point, rival Frankish divisions begin to be recorded, and the Sicambrian Franks themselves emerge more into history than the traditional genealogies of previous leaders can allow. The Salian Franks prove to be strong rivals to the Sicambri, although it appears that both branches soon merge under the Salian banner and follow a single, semi-legendary leader in the form of Merovée.

Son of King Pharamond and Argotta Rosamund.
Father of King Meroveus

Biography: He is the oldest king of the Merovingian dynasty whose existence is certain.

Towards the middle of the 5th century, Clodion entered with his army into Roman territory from East of the Rhine (Allemagne) and seized the Cambrésis and the Southern Artois. He founded a small Frankish kingdom, which Clovis I inherited, and which was the embryo of the future kingdom of France.

Before the advent of Clodion and since 342, the Salian Franks are installed as foederatie inside the Roman Empire, in the North of Gaul, in Toxandrie, between the Moesan marshes, North of the current Maastricht, and the Charbonnière forest.

On January 17, 395, the Roman Empire was divided into two parts: the Eastern Empire and the Western Empire. From 407, several Germanic peoples entered Gaul and settled there. The Visigoths founded a kingdom in Aquitaine, the Alans (non-Germanic people) took up their quarters near Orleans, the Burgundians and the Alamans settled along the Rhine. During the reign of Clodion, Valentinian III ruled the western part of the Roman Empire.

Clodion begins to reign around 428. He succeeds his father King Theodomir. He leads the people of the Salian Franks from its capital, the fortress of Dispargum, located east of the Rhine.
Towards 432, Clodion learns that the cities of the Roman province of Belgium secondus are defenseless: Aetius, Roman general charged with the defense of Gaul, took many soldiers from these territories to fight alternately the Burgundians, the Alans, the Rhenish Franks, the anti-tax revolts and the Visigoths. Clodion decides to mount an expedition and mobilizes his entire army. Crossing the Charbonnière forest, the Franks seized Tournai, carried Cambrai and Arras at the first assault and reduced the whole country from the surroundings to the Somme. More than easy pillaging, Clodion seeks to give his authority as a warrior king a territorial base. The occupation lasted a few years without Aetius trying to end it.

In 448, Clodion, who celebrated the wedding of an important member of his army in the village of Helena near Arras, was attacked by General Aetius and his lieutenant Majorien. The general wants to put back the Salian Franks who have annexed territories without his authorization. Clodion, not prepared for the confrontation, is forced to flee. But Aetius, who does not have the military means to occupy the territory again, prefers to renegotiate with Clodion and authorizes him to settle in the Empire, in this case on the territories they have already conquered in Arras , Cambrai and Tournai (its capital).
After more than twenty years of reign, Clodion died shortly before the year 451. According to Frankish custom, his kingdom was divided between his sons. The elder, undoubtedly Mérovée, obtains the city of Tournai and its region. A second heir obtains Cambrai and a third Tongeren.

Union and descendants: He married Hildegonde of Cologne who followed. The couple had several children, including:
- Mévovée Ier (411/457) king of the Franks, although few documents attest to his existence.
- Chlodebaud of Cologne (420/483), king of the Rhenish Franks,
- Lambert of Thérouanne (425/451) king of Thérouanne.

Notes:

-- Wikiwand: Ereleuva

Ereleuva was the mother of the Ostrogothic king Theoderic the Great. She often is referred to as the concubine of Theoderic's father, Theodemir, although historian Thomas Hodgkin notes "this word of reproach hardly does justice to her position. In many of the Teutonic nations, as among the Norsemen of a later century, there seems to have been a certain laxity as to the marriage rite..." That Gelasius refers to her as "regina" ("queen") suggests that she had a prominent social position despite the informality of her union with Theodemir.

Ereleuva was Catholic, and was baptized with the name "Eusebia." She had probably converted from Arianism as an adult, but the details are unclear in the historical record. Ereleuva is regarded as having taken to Catholicism quite seriously, as indicated by her correspondence with Pope Gelasius and mention of her in Ennodius's "Panegyric of Theoderic."

Her name was spelled variously by historians in antiquity as "Ereriliva" (by the fragmentary chronicle of Anonymus Valesianus, c. 527) and "Erelieva' (by Jordanes), and now largely is known to modern historians as "Ereleuva," as she was addressed most frequently by Pope Gelasius I. Related to the Erilaz from which the Heruli were tied with the Ostrogoths even after they returned to Scandinavia.

Foundation for Medieval Genealogy-

Concubine: ERELEUVA [Erelieva]. She was baptised a Catholic as EUSEBIA[235]. Iordanes names "Erelieva concubina" as mother of Theodoric[236]. She went with her son to Italy.

Theodemir had three illegitimate children by his concubine:

461 AD; She accompanied her son when he was taken hostage to Constantinople in about 461

2. THEODORIC ([451][260]-30 Aug 526). Iordanes names "Theodericum" as son of Theodemir, in a later passage naming his mother "Erelieva concubina"[261]. He was proclaimed THEODORIC "the Great" King of Italy in Mar 493 after defeating King Odovacar.
