Description:

When Nero took his own life in 68CE it was the end of an era for Rome. The Julio-Claudians had ruled for close to 100 years, and with the end of the dynasty there was confusion, civil war, and an outpouring of grief.

Some would exploit this confusion and claim to be the still alive Emperor Nero, with the intention of retaking his empire.
