Ah, perfect. I would agree with those rankings. I always wonder what the world would look like if Julian had ruled longer. Would he have been able to return Rome to a pre-Christian era? Or would all of his changes be undone anyway after his death regardless of how long he could stay in power.

And apologies for missing them, the image was hard to read on my phone.

No worries! As someone else pointed out, the names are a bit blurry on a lot of them.

I think that he wouldn't have been able to permanently reverse the Christianization of the Empire, but if he ruled longer, we'd probably have more surviving pagan texts and artifacts, and that would be pretty cool.
