Quote:Generally, do we even know that the third-century crisis was directly related to military expenditures?

I don't believe so. There was a gradual debasing of the coinage, but it was mainly due to economic disruption (iirc). One good Parthian War would've set the finances straight again! (Unfortunately, along came the Sasanians ...)
