TTl Emperor Nero brought a golden age upon the roman installing his brother Maximian as Basileus of Persia and sponsoring the hellenic arts, and roman culture. He also gave the Jews public support and officialized their religion provided they worshiped the emperor. The governor of judea, and self-proclaimed king of the Jews; Yeshua agreed. With his help the Pontificate Maxima was made a seperate office than emperor, and he used religious power to cast unworthy members out of the Hellenic religion, which made everyone hate them(basically). He also ensured the Julio-Claudian dynasty survived as Imperators of Rome until the crisis of the 5th century, when the Germanic dynasty de Merohingi became emperors starting with Theodoric who destabilized the empire and basically ensured it's collapse.
