The political role of the Pretoria Guard in Rome in the era of the Ulyuklodic family

Abstract

The issue of public security and the personal security of the rulers has received great attention from countries throughout the ages. This issue has been placed at the forefront of the priorities of these countries because of the importance it attaches to the stability of affairs in the country. Therefore, the states were meant to mobilize soldiers to protect their borders and provide them with external dangers. At the same time, the finest soldiers were recruited by youth, skill and loyalty, and formed units to protect the ruler of that country. I made this research to shed light on one of the important forces influencing the policy of the Roman Empire, the role played by the Pretoria Guard in that policy and the rapid development of the Guards force from a special guard to a regular army-independent military institution with its own functions.

This research attempts to shed light on one of the important forces influencing the policy of the Roman Empire, the role played by the Pretoria Guard in that policy, and the rapid development of the guard force from a special guard to a regular military institution independent of the army and with its own functions. The search included the meaning of the Breton language and terminology, the founding of the Pretoria Guard and the tasks assigned to it, the ranks of the Guardians, the number of the Guardian Guard battalions, the headquarters of the Guard Corps and their commanders, as well as the most prominent Guardians in the era of the Julio-Claudius family such as Lucius Alejos Saganos, Naveus Sertorius and Macrow, Poros, and then Jayyus Ofonius Tigellinos.
