From 527, Saint Justinian I, originally Flavius Petrus Sabbatius Justinianus, Byzantine emperor, held the eastern frontier against the Persians; reconquered former Roman territories in Africa, Italy, and Spain; and ruled jointly with Theodora, his wife, to 565.

Belisarius, his general, led campaigns against the Vandals in north and the Ostrogoths.

Saint Theodora, Byzantine empress, ruled jointly with Justinian I, her husband.

Saint Justinian I, traditionally also known as the Great in the Orthodox Church, reigned. During reign, Justinian sought to revive the greatness and the lost historical western half.

Quotes by Justinian I (?)

“Much has been disputed about ‘the ghost of the Roman Empire’ that still lurks far beyond the shores of the Mediterranean. The heritage of Roman law is not a ghost but a living reality. It is present in the court as well as in the market-place. It lives on not only in the institutions but even in the language of all civilized nations.”
― Justinian, The Digest of Roman Law: Theft, Rapine, Damage and Insult

“Marriage or matrimony is the union of male and female, involving shared life together.”
― Justinian, Justinian's "Institutes"
