Abstract
This working paper provides a comparative constitutional analysis of sovereignty within the Byzantine Empire and Roman Tetrarchy. Through comparing the structures of government and transitions of power within these regimes, this working paper concludes that sovereignty vested in the dominant tetrarch’s auctoritas within the Roman tetrarchy, with the other tetrarchs exercising a greatly lessened degree of influence. Whereas, in the Byzantine Empire, the transitions of power and focus on popular sovereignty ultimately resulted in sovereignty vesting in the res publica.
