“I’m Commodus (/ˈkɒmədəs/;[4] 31 August 161 – 31 December 192). I was a Roman emperor who I ruled from 177 until my assassination in 192. For the first three years of my reign I was co-emperor with my father Marcus Aurelius. My sole rule, starting with the death of Marcus in 180, is commonly thought to mark the end of a golden age of peace and prosperity in the history of the Roman Empire (the Pax Romana).”
