Gaius Pius Esuvius Tetricus, Gallic emperor, 270 - 273

On the murder of Victorinus , the Gallic empire passed into the hands of Tetricus, governor of Aquitaine, through the workings of Victoria, the highly influential mother of Victorinus. The breakaway empire was in a state of collapse, and when Aurelian marched against it in 273, Tetricus abdicated and surrendered.  Along with his son, the young Caesar Tetricus II , Tetricus was returned to Rome, where he was displayed to the Roman people in Aurelian's triumphal procession. Aurelian admired Tetricus, however, and allowed him to live his life in peace, even giving him a minor government position.
