Why did Caracalla move his army back to Hadrian's wall?

During Septimius Severus's campaign to conquer Caledonia (Scotland), his son Caracalla was the second in command of the army and his other son, Geta, had administrative duties. Septimius Severus had taken the Southern Uplands and the Central Lowlands and was preparing to conquer the Highlands and wanted to exterminate the Caledonians. However, he fell ill and died. The troops proclaimed both Caracalla and Geta emperors. Caracalla abandoned the military campaign and both brothers returned to Rome. This was because both brothers wanted to be sole emperor and both wanted to concentrate on this power struggle in Rome. Caracalla tried to murder Geta at a festival of the Saturnalia (17 December) and later in that month he got the imperial guard to kill him.


What do you notice about the Roman empire around 200 CE?

In this period there was the end of what historians have called the Pax Romana, which was a period of relative political stability in the Roman Empire which followed the creation of rule by emperors by Augustus. After the death of Marcus Aurelius his son Commodus became the emperor. He was the worse one the Romans ever had. He was unjust and cruel. He was murdered in 192. This was followed by what historians called The Year of the Five Emperors (193) which started a period of conflict. The successor of Commodus, Pertinax, was also assassinated. The imperial title was bought by Didus Julianus. Septimius Severus deposed Pertinax. Two other men, besides Severus, claimed the imperial title, Pescennius Niger, Clodius Albinus. Septimius Severus fought civil wars against Pescennius Niger and Clodius Albinus and emerged victorious. These civil wars continued until 197.
