Roman Empire
Florian died
Tarsus, Cilicia
Florian led his troops to Cilicia and billeted his forces in Tarsus. However many of his troops, who were unaccustomed to the hot climate of the area, fell ill due to a summer heatwave. Upon learning of this, Probus launched raids around the city, in order to weaken the morale of Florian's forces. This strategy was successful, and Florian lost control of his army, which in September rose up against him and killed him. In total, Florian's reign lasted less than three months.
