Episode 3 – The Isaurian Emperor

The Emperor Zeno is now back in charge and has to deal with the members of the conspiracy that ousted him. In the first half of the episode we see how he handled his enemies close to him and in the second we look at his relationship with the Goths. At the very end we take a look at the final outposts of Roman rule in the West.
