Emperor Leo's I reign was noteworthy for his influence in the Western Roman Empire, marked by his appointment of Anthemius as Western Roman Emperor in 467.
WI Leo I instead of appointing Anthemius as his colleague in the West appoints his new son-in-law Zeno to the Imperial position as a counterweight to the growing power of Magister Militum Ricimer?
Could WRE had done better with Zeno as Emperor (assuming he manages to neutralise somehow Ricimer)?
Any thoughts?
