This document is a list of victory titles assumed by Roman Emperors, not including assumption of the title Imperator (is itself a victory title); note that the Roman Emperors were not the only persons to assume victory titles (Maximinus Thrax acquired his victory title during the reign of a previous Emperor). In many ways, the Imperial victory titles give an interesting summary of which wars and which peoples were considered significant by the senior leadership of the Roman Empire. For a more complete list of the Emperors themselves, see List of Roman Emperors.
