Claudio

Claudio, one of Rome's most improbable emperors, spent much of his life in the shadows, considered weak and incapable by his own family. Yet, against all odds, he became the leader of a vast and turbulent empire. This book takes us from his youth, marked by the disdain of the Julio-Claudians, to his unexpected rise to power after the assassination of Calígula. During his reign, Claudio proved to be an astute and effective leader, introducing significant reforms, expanding the empire with the conquest of Britannia, and strengthening imperial administration.
