I picked julian the apostate for the cultural reasons voiced up thread. He aspired to be a true philosopher emperor, even though as Will Durant put it, his treatises do not reward a reader today lol. He was a post diocletian flash back to the antonines.
I suppose you could also make an argument for stilicho if aetius and belisarius are on the list. Perhaps also theodosius, the last ruler of the unified empire.
