History is something that often needs to be taken with a pinch a salt. There is rather a lot of hagiography and outright lies that sneak into historical texts especially in regard to Christianity whose medieval writings are all a tissue of stupid lies mixed with extreme violence.

And much of what was written about Roman emperors were written by the equivalent of fox news trying to shock.
And the Roman pope told the masses that he scared off Attila the Hun with miracles. A Hun source says he paid Attilla.
However unlike the bible, some of history does contain a kernel of truth so is worth prising out from the lies boasts and speculation.
