Aanvullende informatie

Gnaeus Julius Agricola served as governor of Roman Britain from 77 to 84 AD, pushing Roman control further north than any predecessor. His campaigns into Caledonia culminated at the Battle of Mons Graupius — a Roman victory that was effectively abandoned when Domitian recalled Agricola and redirected legions to the Danube frontier. Hadrian's Wall, begun around 122 AD under a different emperor entirely, owes its existence partly to the strategic vacuum left by that withdrawal.

Guernsey has no direct Roman administrative history, which makes this an issuer of convenience rather than historical connection.
