 Greetings all,

On this day we commemorate the birth of Emperor Constans II on November 7th in 630 AD:



Constans II was the last Emperor to serve in the office of Consul, although the office continued to exist on record until 886 AD. In 663 he  visited Rome for 12 days and was the first Eastern Emperor to have visited there since 476 AD.

The first Byzantine Themes were created during the rule of Constans II. 

There should be cake!  :)
