Trivia: In 238 CE, Gordian III became the youngest ruler of what civilization?

Persian Empire
Roman Empire
Byzantine Empire
Han Dynasty

The correct answer is Roman Empire

So why is this answer correct? : Gordian III isn’t the most well-known Roman emperor, but he has one accolade above all the others — he’s the youngest to ever rule the realm. After some gruesome “Game of Thrones”-esque politics, Gordian III found himself on the throne at the tender age of 13. Unfortunately for Gordian, his time on top didn’t last long, as he was assassinated by his own troops six years later and replaced by the praetorian prefect Philip the Arabian in 244 CE.
