    He bailed out a sinking ship. Rome was broken long before him.

    The Preatorian Guard was responsible for nearly all of the assassinations of emporers. One time selling the emporer possition to the highest bidder. They were corrupt and powerful. They needed to be removed, I'm surprised he was able to do it without being assassinated himself. (Reminds me of that time the Ottomans attacked their own Janissary army, just less bloody.)
