Many refer to me as the wife of Justinian the First, Emperor of the Byzantine Empire, I prefer to be called Empress Theodora as my husband and I were co-rulers, after all. If you had lived during our reign, you would have known that I was the force behind the throne. A feat accomplished by few women 1500 years ago.
During our reign, my husband and I aggregated the Roman Empire. We celebrated by building Hagia Sophia, which is right behind me.
After our reign, we lost Syria, Palestine, Cyrenaica, Africa and Egypt in a terrible war against the Islāmic Arabs. At the same time, we lost parts of Italy to the Lombards. After that, during the same year again, Bulgarian people settled in the south part of Danube, and that was just the first period
