Maurice and his family were murdered
Time: Saturday Nov 27, 602
Place: Constantinople, Byzantine Empire
Details: Maurice's refusal to ransom several thousand captives taken by the Avars, and his order to the troops to winter in the Danube, caused his popularity to plummet. A revolt broke out under an officer named Phocas, who marched the troops back to Constantinople; Maurice and his family were murdered while trying to escape.
Best-effort ordering. Some events may appear out of order since many are only known to the year, but they are usually around the same period.
