Caracalla Facts
Emperor Caracalla was born in 18 AD and died on April 8, 217 AD.
He was the Roman Emperor who ruled the country from 211 AD until his death in 217 AD.
He is a Roman ruler with Punic origins. These origins are due to the fact that they are on his father’s side, Mr. Septimius Severus, and at the same time he is not from Syria, but on his mother’s side, the noble Lady Julia Domna..
During that period, his mother was very famous in the Roman Empire in Syria, as she had a lot of influence, strength, and authority in that Roman Empire existing in Syria..
Emperor Caracalla was born in Lugdenum, which is now located in Lyon, France.
During his reign, during which he was still seven years old, his name had already been changed to the name known to him, Marcus Aurelius Antoninus Augustus..
This change process was done to confirm that he belonged entirely to the family called Marcus Aurelius.
He also took the nickname Caracalla, in reference to the distinctive garment of his room, which looked a little like a tapestry, which he had previously worn and which later became fashionable during his rule..
Emperor Caracalla – What were the most important works he performed?
In the year 212 AD, Emperor Caracalla issued an official decree named after the famous Caracalla.
In that circular, Caracalla had granted Roman citizenship to all free people living throughout the Roman Empire..
He granted this right to them in order to be able to increase the tax rate, which was the issue under which he had made all the inhabitants of the empire that he ruled equal, and therefore they were subject to the rule of only one law, whose side guaranteed both freedom and basic rights..
Emperor Caracalla also carried out very large operations until he succeeded in constructing a number of large baths outside Rome. These baths are known until now as the Baths of Caracalla..
The ruins of these baths still exist today, and they can extend over a large area of approximately (11) hectares, as at that time they could accommodate approximately one thousand and six hundred people..
How was his death?
His death was in the year 217 AD, as at that time the strange love of raising spoils had taken over his soldier’s thinking, and thus that thinking had a very large and dangerous takeover of his mind, and for a period of time it became all his concern..
Accordingly, they had already killed him in the Karae region, where he had defeated Crassus’ army and he was at the height of his glory..
