Glycerius

Japanese: グリュケリウス(英語表記)Glycerius
Glycerius
Western Emperor of the Roman Empire. Reigned 473-474. He served as commander of the Imperial General Staff (comes domesticus) under Olybrius, and after Olybrius' death, he was elevated to the Western throne by Gundobad, Ricimer's nephew and heir to the throne. Leo, the Eastern Emperor, did not approve this and sent a fleet under the command of Nepos. When Nepos landed near Rome and proclaimed himself Western Emperor, Glycerius surrendered without fighting and was appointed Bishop of Salona. It is said that he was involved in the murder of Nepos in Dalmatia in 480.
