Gaius Pius Esuvius Tetricus I
Originally a Praeses (governor) of Gallia Aquitania, he became Emperor after the murder of Emperor Victorinus in 271. During his reign, he faced invasions from both Germanic raiders and the Roman Empire, from which the Gallic Empire had seceded. He declared his son Tetricus II Caesar and Co-Emperor in 273. He was overthrown by Emperor Aurelian, but spared and served as a Senator and Corrector until he died a few years later.
