How did justinian gain the throne?

his father passed on the throne to him.
his uncle made him co-emperor.
his army took control of constantinople.
his wife was of royal birth.

wealthy plebeians became part of the roman nobility. however, despite changes in the laws, the patricians always held a majority of the wealth and power in ancient rome. a third social class in roman society was the slaves. around one third of the people living in rome were slaves.

hope this
