Difficult...

America would not have been discovered if there was not a ship finding out about it. It has to be a sea-worthy emperor with naval experience. There are 3 emperors specifically known.

I guess Carausias, because he was made emperor by legions of Brittanica, and apart from the position of governor he was also an naval officer. And wasn't there a while that Jamestown was situated in New Brittannica?

I'm not going to give hints yet, but there is no connection between the Roman emperors and the Jamestown settlement.

Everyone will get a 2nd guess in 12 more hours. If you didn't post your first guess yet, you can post it now and in 12 hours you will have a second chance.

Good luck to all.
