Under some of the later Pagan emperors foundling hospitals and schools were established in separate provinces for orphans and poor children. Under the just and wise rule of Theodoric the province flourished; but the people always regarded the Goths as barbarians, and when the Byzantines attacked Istria in 539-544 and 552 the troops of Vitalius, Belisarius, and Narses were welcomed.
In 552 he was driven out by a Chinese army led by one of the princes and was killed. The new emperor had been a prince in the upper Yangtze region, and his closest associates were engaged there.

Prisoners of War his Garrison and he; about 9,000 of them still on their feet; their entire loss had been 3,552 killed and wounded; that of the Prussians 3,033. Poor Guasco died, in Konigsberg, still prisoner, before the Peace came. Of Austrian fighting in Silesia, this proved to be the last, in the present Controversy which has endured so long. No thought of fighting is in Daun; far the reverse.
