AI overview

The 190s was a decade in Roman history marked by political turmoil, most dramatically in 193 when five different emperors ruled in rapid succession following the death of Commodus. This period of instability culminated in a civil war among rival claimants, ultimately won by Septimius Severus, whose victory reshaped the Roman Empire's military and political structure.
