Balbinus, 22 April - 29 July 238 A.D.
|Balbinus|, |Balbinus,| |22| |April| |-| |29| |July| |238| |A.D.|, Balbinus was elected along with Pupienus to end the reign of the brutal Maximinus. A military stalemate ensued, until Maximinus was murdered by his own troops. The population and the Praetorian guard held little respect for the two ex-senators, however, and they were murdered after a reign of only 99 days.
