Maximian's appointment is unusual in that it was impossible for Diocletian to have been present to witness the event.

In 293, feeling more focus was needed on both civic and military problems, Diocletian, with Maximian's consent, expanded the imperial college by appointing two Caesars ( one responsible to each Augustus ) — Galerius and Constantius Chlorus.

Theodora, the wife of Constantius Chlorus, is often called Maximian's stepdaughter by ancient sources, leading to claims by Otto Seeck and Ernest Stein that she was born from an earlier marriage between Eutropia and Afranius Hannibalianus .< ref > Aurelius Victor, de Caesaribus 39. 25 ; Eutropius, Breviaria 9. 22 ; Jerome, Chronicle 225 < sup > g </ sup >; Epitome de Caesaribus 39. 2, 40. 12, quoted in Barnes, New Empire, 33 ; Barnes, New Empire, 33 .</ ref > Barnes challenges this view, saying that all " stepdaughter " sources derive their information from the partially unreliable work of history Kaisergeschichte, while other, more reliable sources, refer to her as Maximian's natural daughter .< ref > Origo Constantini 2 ; Philostorgius, Historia Ecclesiastica 2. 16 < sup > a </ sup >, quoted in Barnes, New Empire, 33.

This division would have been later reorganised by splitting Britannia Caesariensis into north and south regions named after Constantius and the western Augustus, Marcus Aurelius Valerius Maximianus This would require the split to have taken place prior to Maximian's abdication in 305.

Maximian's consistent loyalty to Diocletian proved an important component of the Tetrarchy's early successes.

Galerius and Constantius would become Augusti after Diocletian and Maximian's departure.

There are suggestions in the Panegyrici Latini and Lactantius ' account that Diocletian arranged plans for his and Maximian's future retirement of power in Rome.

He shared the latter title with his co-emperor and superior, Diocletian, whose political brain complemented Maximian's military brawn.

This would require the split to have taken place prior to Maximian's abdication in 305.

Maximian's campaigns were not proceeding as smoothly.

In the West, the capitals were Maximian's Mediolanum ( now Milan ) and Constantius ' Trier.

Maximian's subordinate, Constantius, campaigned against Carausius ' successor, Allectus, while Maximian held the Rhine frontier.

Carausius was of humble origin, a Menapian who distinguished himself during Maximian's campaign against the Bagaudae rebels in northern Gaul in 286.

He was Maximian's praetorian prefect in Gaul, and the husband to Maximian's daughter, Theodora.

Maximian's son Maxentius, and Constantius ' son Constantine would then become Caesars.

He heard of Maximian's third claim to the throne, his forced suicide, his damnatio memoriae.

Constantine forced Maximian's suicide in 310.

* Constantius Chlorus divorces his wife ( or concubine ) Helena, mother of Constantine I, and marries emperor Maximian's stepdaughter, Theodora.

He married Theodora, Maximian's daughter.

In April 307, he attempted to depose his son, but failed and fled to the court of Constantius ' successor, Constantine ( who was both Maximian's step-grandson and also his son-in-law ), in Trier.

During Constantine's war with Maxentius, Maximian's image was purged from all public places.

However, after Constantine ousted and killed Maxentius, Maximian's image was rehabilitated, and he was deified.

Maximian's earnest appeal for reunion continued.

As well, even though in many cases the popular change from one to the next can be swift and sudden, the beginning and end of movements are somewhat subjective, as the movements did not spring fresh into existence out of the blue and did not come to an abrupt end and lose total support, as would be suggested by a date range.

It is characteristic of early literature that the evolution of the thought, or the grammatical form of the sentence, is guided by the structure of the verse ; and the correspondence which consequently obtains between the rhythm and the syntax — the thought being given out in lengths, as it were, and these again divided by tolerably uniform pauses — produces a swift flowing movement such as is rarely found when periods are constructed without direct reference to the metre.
