Constans, abandoned by all except a handful…

February 350 CE

Constans, abandoned by all except a handful of retainers, is slain shortly afterwards by a troop of light cavalry near the Pyrenees.

Magnentius quickly attracts the loyalty of the provinces in Britannia, Gaul, and Hispania, in part because he proves to be far more tolerant towards both Christians and Pagans.

He applies his control on Italia and Africa through the election of his men to the most important offices.
