The revolt is repressed, and the rebels are crucified, but it results in the birth of the [[Zealot]] movement, the members of which regard God as their only master. * Due to a food shortage in [[Rome]], [[Augustus]] doubles the corn rations distributed to the people. * Due to a catastrophic fire in Rome, the barracks system is created to allow quicker response in the case of emergencies. * [[Augustus]] banishes [[Agrippa Postumus]], one of his adopted sons, to the island of Planasia. * [[Marcus Aemilius Lepidus]] and [[Lucius Arruntius]] become Roman consuls. * Theophilus becomes [[Archon of Athens]]. There are no further records of Archons until after [[23]]. ====Africa==== * [[Juba II]] of Maurentia and Numidia marries [[Glaphyra]], a princess from [[Cappadocia]]. The marriage is brief as Glaphyra falls for Herod Archelaus and moves to Judea (This union is partially responsible for Herod's ouster from Judea). * Following the ousting of [[Orodes III]], Vorones I is appointed by Rome as King of Parthia. Parthian grandees refuse to accept him as king and invite [[Artabanus II]], another member of the Arsacid house, to the throne, precipitating civil war. ====China==== * January &mdash; Some Chinese fear for the life of the young, ailing Emperor [[Emperor Ping of Han|Ping Di]] as the planet Mars disappears behind the moon this month.<ref name=wak1>Klingaman, William K., ''The First Century: Emperors, Gods and Everyman'', 1990, p 66</ref> * [[February 3]] &mdash; the boy emperor, [[Emperor Ping of Han|Ping Di]] dies of unexpected causes at age 14; [[Wang Mang]] alone selects the new emperor, the [[Ruzi Ying]], age 2,<ref name=wak1/> starting the ''Jushe'' era of the [[Han Dynasty]]. * Candidates for government office must take civil-service examinations. * The imperial Liu clan suspect the intentions of [[Wang Mang]] and foment agrarian rebellions during the course of Ruzi Ying's reign.
