Years: 361 - 361
December
Having now become sole Augustus, Julian greatly simplifies the life of the palace and reduces its expenses.
He issues proclamations in which he declares his intention to rule as a philosopher, on the model of Marcus Aurelius.
All Christian bishops exiled by Constantius are allowed to return to their sees (although the purpose of this may have been to promote dissension among the Christians), and an edict of 361 proclaims freedom of worship for all religions.
He publicly announces his conversion to paganism at this time, thus acquiring the epithet “the Apostate.”
