178- Not With A Bang But A Whimper

Emperors rise and fall in the Western Empire leading to the exile of Romulus Augustulus in 476. Leo's deal with Nepos, Goth invasions, and the distinction between Visigoths and Ostrogoths pose threats to the throne. Zeno assumes power after Leo II's death, leading to the surrender of Glycarius. Orestes undermines Nepos' rule, prompting his escape and the rise of Romulus Augustulus as emperor.
