Believed to belong to a family who originated from the eastern provinces of the Roman Empire, Hannibalianus was a military commander who served under the emperor Probus (r. 276–282).
[2] He was elevated to the rank of Praetorian prefect of the west in AD 286 under Maximian, and had led the imperial armies to victory over the Germanic tribes along the Rhine in that year.
[3] Hannibalianus held this rank until probably AD 292, when he was appointed consul prior alongside Julius Asclepiodotus.
[5] It has been speculated that Hannibalianus’ acceptance of his wife's new marriage as well as his position as step-father to the Caesar Constantius accounted for his rapid rise through the administrative offices of the empire.
