His reign was dominated by powerful figures, including his mother Justina, the usurper Magnus Maximus, and the Eastern emperor Theodosius I, who restored his authority after defeating Maximus in 388. Valentinian later came under the influence of the general Arbogast, who effectively controlled the Western Empire. In 392, Valentinian was found dead at Vienne in Gaul, possibly murdered, although suicide was officially reported. His death led to the usurpation of Eugenius and renewed civil war.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"NumisMallstore","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":67950098972987,"sku":"x7171-249","price":18.85,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0447\/1750\/6710\/files\/zr249.jpg?v=1794522217","url":"https:\/\/www.numismall.com\/products\/ae4-of-valentinian-ii-375-392-alexandria-mint-roman-empire","provider":"NumisMall","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
