Answer

Marcus Aurelius, the renowned Roman emperor and Stoic philosopher, ruled alongside his son, Commodus, from 177 to 180 AD. While Marcus Aurelius is widely revered as one of the "Five Good Emperors" for his wisdom, justice, and philosophical pursuits, his co-emperorship with Commodus was marked by a stark contrast in their characters and approaches to leadership.
