events
- Titus Manlius Valens and Gaius Antistius Vetus are Roman consuls .
- September 18: A group of conspirators murder the Roman Emperor Domitian , who has drawn enmity from the Senate through his autocratic rule . The main perpetrator, Flavius Stephanus, is a freedman and procurator of Flavia Domitilla , the wife of the consul Titus Flavius Clemens , who was executed last year on the orders of Domitian . The Flavian dynasty is extinguished . The conspirators are found on site by the emperor's guard and killed.
- The Council of Elders elects Senator Marcus Cocceius Nerva as the new Princeps . This first imposed the damnatio memoriae on Domitian . He then releases those imprisoned for treason, forbids further charges of treason and lawsuits, and returns much of Domitian's property confiscated. Senators are withdrawn from the imperial jurisdiction and are only subject to that of the Senate. Secret voting is introduced in the Senate. Through great thrift he succeeds in restoring the broken state finances, for which he also sacrifices his own fortune. He sets up state alimony funds that enable children in need to be supported and educated. Land is distributed to needy Roman citizens.
