The reigns of Romeβs emperors were not always bountiful, long, or unopposed. In fact, in many cases, they were turbulent and chaotic, to say the least. This was especially true in cases when a long-reigning emperor was suddenly gone, or when the throne had to be shared amongst βco-emperorsβ. And, when faced with all that power, wealth, and influence, powerful men seldom wanted to share it all. This was the case with the co-emperors, brothers Geta and Caracalla. Upon the death of their father, Septimius Severus, who intended them to share the throne, they at once quarreled and clearly showed to all the complexities of imperial rule when succession was not clearly outlined. And so, the short life and reign of Emperor Geta were troubled by the discord in his family, and the deadly rivalry with his own brother.
