Nepos was the husband of the niece of the Eastern Roman emperor LeoRef needed !, hence his nepos — "nephew" — agnomen, and was named as emperor in the West by Leo in 47. As emperor, Nepos tried to consolidate the empire's remaining Western holdings, which consisted of Italy, part of the Balkans and footholds in northern and southern Gaul. He was able to renegotiate a recently concluded peace settlement with the Visigoths and their king Euric, which restored the Provence region of Gaul to imperial control in exchange for some other, minor territories where Nepos was unable to maintain firm control.
