Vespasian

Vespasian (/vɛsˈpeɪʒiən/ or /vɛsˈpeɪziən/ Latin: Titus Flavius Caesar Vespasianus Augustus; 17 November 9 – 23 June 79)^[2][3] was Roman Emperor from AD 69 to AD 79. Vespasian was the founder of the Flavian dynasty, which ruled the Empire for a quarter century. Vespasian was descended from a family of equestrians, who rose into the senatorial rank under the Emperors of the Julio-Claudian dynasty. Although he attained the standard succession of public offices, holding the consulship in AD 51, Vespasian became more reputed as a successful military commander, participating in the Roman invasion of Britain in 43,^[4] and subjugating Judaea during the Jewish rebellion of AD 66.^[5]
