Question

Who was Phocas the Tyrant?

Answer 1

Phocas (r. 602-610 CE) was a Byzantine emperor who came to power after leading a rebellion against his predecessor, Maurice. After declaring himself emperor, he began a brutal purge of the Byzantine elite, whom he deeply mistrusted. His constant paranoia and willingness to use violence without hesitation against his own people earned him the moniker of 'Tyrant'. After eight years he was deposed for his feckless and disastrous rule.
