I fear that in these words The Roman historian Tacitus wrote that the people were not satisfied with this match as they were with the betrothal of Claudius Drusus's cousin, Nero Caesar, son of the popular general Germanicus Julius Caesar. Probably it was felt the nobility of the family (nobilitas familiae) was to be polluted; Sejanus was not of senatorial rank and his appointment as a praetor in 20 AD was an unprecedented novelty
Tacitus has been misinterpreted. Nero, who was Germanicus's grandson not son, wasn't born for another fifteen years or so after Claudius Drusus was betrothed to Sejanus's daughter Aelia Junilla. This definitely needs correcting, but at this moment i cannot; happy days,
