| rdfs:comment | - Valentinian was born in 371. His father was emperor Valentinian I. There wasn't much time for bonding with junior as old Val as he was dead four years later, the result of overstressing his ticker after an argument about a seating plan with a delegation of hairy trousered Germans. Valentinian's elder half brother Gratian then became emperor in the Western Roman Empire but barely a few weeks later, he received a vote of no confidence from some of the legions who then dragged young Valentinian out his play pen and proclaimed him co-emperor.

| abstract | - Valentinian was born in 371. His father was emperor Valentinian I. There wasn't much time for bonding with junior as old Val as he was dead four years later, the result of overstressing his ticker after an argument about a seating plan with a delegation of hairy trousered Germans. Valentinian's elder half brother Gratian then became emperor in the Western Roman Empire but barely a few weeks later, he received a vote of no confidence from some of the legions who then dragged young Valentinian out his play pen and proclaimed him co-emperor. This would normally be the cue for some serious blood letting but a peace was brokered and instead the brothers sub divided their half of the Roman empire (an uncle Valens controlled the Eastern half of the empire and had stayed out the struggle). Valentinian II was emperor of Italy, North Africa and boring bit of the Balkans. Since Valentinian was still an irritating child with a runny nose, his mother Justina ruled in his name. Young Valentinian was allowed to play with his three sisters dolls a bit more. To say Valentinian lacked a natural father figure was obvious so what he needed was another man in a dress:St.Ambrose of Milan - aka 'Dug Knuckles' offered his services.
