			Lucius Aelius Sejanus was born in Volsinii, Etruria, Roman Empire on 3 June 20 BC, and he came from the Roman<br>
			equestrian class. The son of Lucius Seius Strabo, he was born into the Seii family but he was later adopted by<br>
			the Aelii by Gaius Aelius Gallus. In 2 BC, Strabo was appointed Prefect of the Praetorian Guard under<br>
			Emperor Augustus, and Sejanus served under Gaius Caesar during his campaigns in Armenia in 1 BC. In 14 AD,<br>
			following the death of Emperor Augustus, Empress Livia appointed Sejanus to serve as the new Prefect of the<br>
			Praetorian Guard, and she sent him to assassinate Agrippa Postumus and Paullus Fabius Maximus, two threats to<br>
			her son Tiberius' accession to the throne.<br>

			Sejanus quickly became Tiberius' trusted advisor, and Tiberius had him elevated to the rank of Praetor. The Roman Senate<br>
			and the imperial family (especially Tiberius' own son Drusus Julius Caesar) came to dislike Sejanus due to his brutality<br>
			against political opponents, his cronyism, and his violent rise to power as Tiberius' right-hand man. In 19 AD, he was one<br>
			of the men behind the poisoning of Tiberius' adoptive son Germanicus in Syria, and Germanicus' widow Agrippina the Elder<br>
			became involved with a group of senators who were opposed to Sejanus' growing power. In 23 AD, Drusus Julius Caesar struck<br>
			Sejanus during an argument, feeling jealous that Sejanus had more power than him; Sejanus seduced Drusus' wife Livilla and<br>
			had Drusus slowly poisoned to death. Tiberius was now forced to leave more administrative matters to Sejanus, but he refused<br>
			to allow for Sejanus to marry Livilla in 25 AD. Sejanus responded by forcing the emperor into isolation in Campania in 26 AD<br>
			and then to the island of Capri (where he stayed until his death 11 years later), fueling his paranoia against Agrippina and<br>
			the Senate. Empress Livia's death in 29 AD left Sejanus with unchecked power, and he purged several senators and wealthy<br>
			equestrians in Rome, forcing many to commit suicide after show trials. In 30 AD, Sejanus had Agrippina and her sons<br>
			Nero Julius Caesar and Drusus Caesar starved to death; however, Caligula escaped to Capri in 31 AD.<br>

			In 31 AD, Sejanus became a Consul of the Roman Empire alongside Tiberius, and he finally became betrothed to Livilla. Senators<br>
			and equestrians courted Sejanus' favor as if he was emperor, and statues were erected in his honor. However, Antonia Minor<br>
			discovered letters between Sejanus and Livilla which implicated them in several murders, and Claudius gave Tiberius a letter<br>
			from Livilla to Sejanus which suggested that he murder Tiberius. At Caligula's suggestion, Tiberius had Naevius Sutorius Macro<br>
			execute Sejanus, his followers, and his family.<br>

	Sejanus was related through his mother to the distinguished senatorial family Cornelii Lentuli. In 14 ce, upon the accession of Tiberius, he joined his father, Seius Strabo, as prefect of the emperor’s household troops, the Praetorian Guard, and became sole prefect a year or two later. As prefect he gained the complete confidence of the emperor.

	After the death of Drusus (23 ce), he began to systematically attack the position of Drusus’s mother, Vipsania Agrippina, whose sons were Tiberius’s probable heirs. In 25 Sejanus was refused Tiberius’s permission to marry Drusus’s widow, Livilla, who may have been Sejanus’s accomplice in the poisoning of her husband. In 27, however, Sejanus persuaded the emperor to take up residence on Capreae (modern Capri) and in 29 succeeded in having Agrippina and her son Nero exiled.

	As consul (31), with the prospect of attaining the great administrative prerogatives of tribunician power, Sejanus fell under the suspicion of the emperor. Tiberius, repeatedly warned by his sister-in-law Antonia of Sejanus’s designs, had him arrested and executed. The Senate and the populace rejoiced as his body was dragged through the streets, and a long reign of terror ensued against his adherents.
