テオドラ

テオドラ、Theodora(?-548)

ビザンティン帝国皇帝ユスティアヌス一世の妻

In 523 Theodora married Justinian, the magister militum praesentalis in Constantinople. On his accession to the throne of Byzantium in 527 as Justinian I, he made her joint ruler of the empire, and appears to have regarded her as a full partner in their rulership. This proved to be a wise decision. A strong-willed woman, she showed a notable talent for governance. In the Nika riots of 532, her advice and leadership for a strong (and militant) response caused the riot to be quelled and probably saved the empire.-wikipedia.en
