Justinian

    Justinian I was a Byzantine emperor who sought to revive the empire's former greatness and reconquer the lost western half of the historical Roman Empire. His reign marks a significant epoch, characterized by the ambitious, though only partly realized, "restoration of the Empire." This ambition was expressed through the recovery of territories from the defunct western Roman Empire and the re-establishment of Roman control over the western Mediterranean. A more resonant legacy of his rule includes the comprehensive rewriting of Roman law, which remains the foundation of civil law in many modern states, and a blossoming of Byzantine culture that yielded architectural masterpieces.
