EDITOR
Pettinax reigned for only three months, during which time there were many mutinies and conspiracies. He was in a bad position because he lacked his own power base and instead relied entirely on the guards and soldiers in the capital, while Laetus continued to intend to make decisions from behind the scenes.
Go by Commodus Not only was the country's economy devastated after his long rule, but the people's respect for the emperor and traditional authority were also lost. Although Pettinax was loved by the citizens of Rome, this was of little use to him. He was killed by rebel soldiers on 28 March 193. From today's analysis, it appears that the accident was not a plot or a planned mutiny, but rather a result of the confusion caused by the indiscipline of the soldiers.
Later emperors Severus He came to power as revenge for Pettinax, whom he worshiped as a god.
