The Battle of Tricameron, 533 A.D. Belisarius Unites East and West under Roman Rule for Justinian

The triumph in North Africa restored Byzantine dominance over the region, bringing it back into the fold of the Eastern Roman Empire. From this strategic foothold, the Byzantines launched their bold invasion of Italy, momentarily reuniting the sundered Eastern and Western Roman Empires under a single imperial banner—if only for a fleeting chapter in history.

Tricameron. December, 533 A.D.
Byzantine Forces: 10,000 Infantry, 5,000 Cavalry.
