Geta (189-211 d.C.) era il figlio minore dell'imperatore Settimio Severo, nato a Roma durante il regno dell'imperatore Commodus. Geta combatté spesso con il fratello maggiore Caracalla, e richiederebbe la mediazione della madre Julia Domna. Settimio Severo chiamò Geta 'Augusto' nel 209, facendogli un co-imperatore accanto a Caracalla, che era stato nominato co-imperatore oltre 10 anni fa, nel 198 d.C. Settimio Severo morì all'inizio del 211 d.C., con Geta e Caracalla proclamarono imperatori congiunti e riordinarono a Roma.

Geta (189-211 CE) was the younger son of Emperor Septimius Severus, born in Rome during the reign of Emperor Commodus. Geta fought often with his older brother Caracalla, and would require the mediation of their mother Julia Domna. Septimius Severus named Geta 'Augustus' in 209, making him a co-emperor alongside Caracalla, who had been named co-emperor over 10 years ago, in 198 CE. Septimius Severus died in early 211 CE, with Geta and Caracalla declared joint emperors and ordered back to Rome. Their hatred and rivalry of one another did not abate though, and there were even talks about splitting the empire in two halves so that they could rule peacefully, before their mother talked them out of it. The situation became so hostile that Carcalla tried to unsuccessfully murder Geta once, before finally succeeding a second time when he had his mother arrange a peace meeting and having his centurions murder Geta in his mother's arms. After Geta's death, Caracalla had him declared 'damnatio memoriae', with every statue, portrait or painting of him destroyed, and his very name was banned from being spoken or written. Over 20, 000 people were killed on Caracalla's orders after he attempted to remove any political enemies and those he considered allies of Geta.
