Marcus Annius Florianus (died 276), also known as Florian, was briefly Roman emperor in the year 276.

AI overview

Marcus Annius Florianus, known as Florian, was a Roman emperor who ruled for only 88 days in 276 after inheriting the throne following his half-brother Tacitus's murder. He matters historically as a figure in Rome's volatile third-century period of rapid imperial turnover, as he was killed by his own soldiers while fighting the rival emperor Probus, who then consolidated power over the Eastern provinces.
