This ruler successfully defeated Chnodomarius at the Battle of Strasbourg, capping his campaigns against the Alamanni. This man wrote a satire of his own habits directed at the citizens of Antioch in which he ridiculed his beard, the Misopogon. During a rest stop in Paris, his troops mutinied and declared him emperor, which almost prompted a civil war between this man and Constanius II. He was slain shortly after his victory at Ctesiphon, where he defeated the armies of Shapur II's Sassanid Empire. As emperor, he rejected both the tetrarchal system of Diocletian and the religious values of Constantine. For 10 points, name this Roman Emperor from 355 to 363 CE, whose epithet refers to his Christian paganism in favor of the traditional Roman religion.
