Years: 534 - 534
April

The old Roman provincial division along with the full apparatus of Roman administration is restored by April 534, under a praetorian prefect rather than under a diocesal vicarius, since the original parent prefecture of Africa, Italy, is still under Ostrogoth rule.

The emperor is determined to restore the African province to its former extent and prosperity.

To this end, the Vandals are barred from holding office or even property, which is returned to its former owners; most Vandal men are enslaved, while the victorious Roman soldiers take their wives; and the Chalcedonian Church is restored to its former position while the Arian Church is dispossessed and persecuted.

As a result of these measures, the Vandal population is diminished and emasculated, and will gradually disappear entirely, absorbed into the provincial population.
