Roman emperor from 96-8 CE; his political prominence originally sprang from his close friendship with Nero; that alliance with Nero paved the way for his consulships held in 71 with Vespasian and 90 with Domitian, the man he suceeded as emperor; after gaining imperial power, he revoked a number of Domitian’s more unpopular actions; he attempted to establish himself as a generous and just leader; however, despite Nerva’s efforts, an undercurrent of tension and political intrigue undercut his rule; he died in 98 CE and his death marked the end of the purely Italian emperors.
