AD 148
900th anniversary of Rome
Previous event | Timeline
| Next event 
The 900th anniversary of Rome is celebrated in great style as the empire
basks in a long period of relative peace and prosperity. Although the
reign of Antoninus (AD 138-161) sees revolts in Mauretania, Germany, Egypt,
Greece and the Middle East, there are no major wars. Back in Rome, relations
between the emperor and the Senate are good, state finances are sound
and the public mood largely calm. It is a good time to be celebrating
such an important anniversary.
