Flavius Iulius Popilius Nepotianus Constantinus was the son of Eutropia, the half-sister of Constantine I.
Nepotianus proclaimed himself emperor in Rome after the revolt of Magnentius, in March 350. Magnentius quickly dealt with the situation by sending his trusted lieutenant Marcellinus to Rome. Nepotian and his mother were both killed in the resulting struggle, in June of the same year.
