Emperor Claudius

Tiberius Claudius Caesar Augustus Germanicus holds a special place in Roman history, being the first emperor of the Roman Empire to be born outside Italy. Claudius had a some sickness while he was a child which left him with a limb and deaf. Maybe this situation saved him since Tiberius and Caligula mostly slaughtered any worth competition against themselves. They didn’t touch Claudius since they didn’t think he could possess any danger to them.

He ruled the Roman Empire between 41 and 54. He conquered lands like Thrace, Lycia, and Judea and annexed them.
