Almost all of thempersecuted the noble families of Rome of whom they were afraid, and itis the writers of these families that have made their reputation. Butit is quite possible that in the provinces their government was mildand just, superior to that of the senators of the republic. THE CENTURY OF THE ANTONINES =The Antonines. =--The five emperors succeeding the twelve Cæsars, Nerva, Trajan, Hadrian, Antoninus, and Marcus Aurelius (96-180), haveleft a reputation for justice and wisdom. They we...re called theAntonines, though this name properly belongs only to the last two. They were not descended from the old families of Rome; Trajan andHadrian were Spaniards, Antoninus was born at Nîmes in Gaul. They werenot princes of imperial family, destined from their birth to rule. Four emperors came to the throne without sons and so the empire couldnot be transmitted by inheritance. On each occasion the prince choseamong his generals and his governors the man most capable ofsucceeding him; he adopted him as his son and sought his confirmationby the Senate.
