Who again was Galba?
As the successor of Nero Galba only ruled a few month. He was the first emperor of the so called Year of the Four Emperors, which already says everything.
Under the ruling of Nero he always was considered as loyal and was send to Spain by Nero as a governor, which was a great honour. This loyalty however didn’t do much for him at the end of his short ruling, because after only 8 month he was murdered by his political enemies.
