578 CE

Justin's successor, crowned by him Tiberius II Constantinus on September 26, 578, nine days before the death of Justin himself, removes the taxes and, choosing between his enemies, awards subsidies to the Avars while taking military action against the Persians.

Constantinople and Persia now enter into peace negotiations to settle the Armenian question.

Tiberius, to increase his popularity, immediately begins spending money that Justin had reserved in his treasury.
