Flavian dynasty

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Flavian dynasty was a series of three Roman Emperors who ruled from 69, the "Year of the Four Emperors", to 96, when the last member was assassinated, starting the Nervan-Antonian dynasty.

Although the period of the Flavians was relatively short, the name proved popular, and was a common component of Roman names for generations thereafter.

• Vespasian (69–79), Son of Titus Flavius Sabinus I
• Titus (79–81), elder son of Vespasian
• Domitian (81–96), younger son of Vespasian, younger brother of Titus
