:::I agree. However, by the time Justinian became emperor, the Western Roman Empire had been long gone, so the eastern empire was the only Roman Empire.

::::The historians have established conventions on these things and I don't see a good reason not to follow them. The fact that Justinian is classified as Eastern Roman rather than as Byzantine is all the more reason to put him on this table. [[Aurelian]], [[Mark Antony]], [[Scipio|Scipio Africanus]], and [[Cicero]] probably belong on it as well. Washington certainly looks out of place here.
