Tommy I (Tiberius)

Caesar Thomas Tiberius "Timtom" Cantabrigianus (AKA Tommy I) was the first Emperor of Rome 2.0 from 2017-2019.

Born in 2001, Timtom was fifteen when he entered the class of the Great Giacchine, who unwittingly inspired the creation of Rome 2.0.

Unlike other revival organizations, Rome 2.0 acknowledged the flaws of classical Roman culture, and took steps to eliminate them. While Nova Roma continued such esoteric customs as vestal virginity, Timtom and the all-female Senate forbade such antiquated practices.

A ruler-in-exile, Emperor Timtom maintained a lively and energetic court in Cantabrigia (Cambridge), and though his claim was largely unnoticed by sane and stable people, Timtom did his best to transform the memory of Rome into something more than elitist or nationalistic fodder, and into an at least somewhat positive force in the community.

In 2019, at the age of 18, after long meditation deep in the woods, Timtom decided that Rome 2.0 would be better served by a younger leader, and formally announced his decision to abdicate, passing on the Imperium to Thomas Thiiudoricus, Tommy II of Rome 2.0.
