This week the son of mighty Maximian is under the microscope. Does Maxentius live up to his father? or even go beyond? He is not invited to the Tetrachic Party and he is not happy. Find out how the simple garden pea can masterfully be deployed as a metaphor for the pursuit for power. Also: We say goodbye to the Praetorian Guard, so we look back and decide on the best Praetorian Prefect.
