Nepos fled to Dalmatia, where his uncle had ruled a semi-autonomous state since the 460s.[10] Orestes, however, refused to become emperor, "from some secret motive", said historian Edward Gibbon.[11] Instead, he installed his son on the throne on 31 October 475.[12] Rome had already lost its hegemony over the provinces, Germanic peoples dominated the Roman army, and Germanic generals like Odoacer had long been the real powers behind the throne.[14] Italy would suffer far greater devastation in the next century when Emperor Justinian I reconquered it in the Gothic War.[15] Some historians regard Julius Nepos, who ruled in Dalmatia until he was murdered in 480, as the last lawful Western Roman Emperor.[21] "Romulus Augustulus | Roman emperor".
