DECENTIUS

Caesar

Decency, created Caesar by his brother Magnentius in March 351, remained in Gaul to defend the Rhenish Limes against the Frankish invasion fomented at the instigation of Constance with a view to opening a second front. Beaten, Decency locked himself in Sens where he committed suicide on August 18, 353.
