'''Marcus Aurelius Commodus Antoninus Augustus''' (A.D. 161 – A.D. 192) - known as '''Commodus''' - was the Roman Emperor who ruled from 180 to 192 AD. Son of Roman Emperor [[Marcus Aurelius]] and chosen to be his successor, he brought to an end the line of the [[Five Good Emperors]] after 84 years of generally enlightened rule. Considered to be a murderous nightmare comparable to [[Nero]] and [[Caligula]], Commodus was finally assassinated in a plot in 192 AD. His death brought a new struggle for the Throne.
