Events
By place
Byzantine Empire
- Emperor Heraclius marries his niece Martina, she becomes empress (Augusta) of the Byzantine Empire. This second marriage is considered to fall within the prohibited degree of kinship and is approved by the Catholic Church in Constantinople.
- January 22 – Constantine is crowned co-emperor (Caesar) by his father Heraclius and shortly after betrothed to his cousin, Gregoria, daughter of Nicetas. Only 8 month old, Constantine has no real power and his dynastic title is pure ceremonial.
- Byzantine–Persian War: Heraclius appoints himself commander-in-chief along with his brother Theodore (curopalates) to solidify command of the army.[1] The Persian army under Shahrbaraz capture the cities of Damascus, Apamea and Emesa.
- Battle of Antioch: Heraclius mobilished a Byzantine expeditionary force to Antioch (Syria) but is outside the city completely defeated by the Persians. Shahin Vahmanzadegan makes further inroads into Central and Western Anatolia.[2]
