My memory is that 69 was the year of the four emperors who were Galba, Otho, and Vitellius. Then the Flavians?

The year of the 4 emperors was in 69 AD.

The 4 emperors were Galba (who’s reign began in 68 AD), Otho , Vitellius and Vespasian.

You’re right. Nero was born in 37, and ruled from 54-68. Probably the author got confused with “ruled” and “born”.
