Tetricus I, also known as Gaius Pius Esuvius Tetricus, was the last emperor of the Gallic Empire, ruling from 271 to 274 AD. He ascended to power following the assassination of Emperor Victorinus, with the support of Victorinus’s mother, Victoria1. Tetricus faced numerous challenges during his reign, including invasions by Germanic tribes and internal strife. In 274 AD, he surrendered to the Roman Emperor Aurelian at the Battle of Châlons2. Remarkably, Aurelian spared Tetricus and appointed him as the governor of Lucania in Italy, where he lived out his days peacefully
