Julius Caesar - part 1

Caesar's life (July 12/13, 100 BC - March 15, 44 BC)



Guys Julius Caesar (July 13, 100 BC - March 15, 44 BC) was a Roman military and political leader. He played an important role in the process of transforming the Roman Republic into a Roman Empire.

A politician of the popular tradition, he formed an unofficial triumvirate and ruled the Roman political arena for several years. He formed his tri-dominant relationship with Marcus Licinius Cruzus and Nius Pompius Magnus. However, his rule was opposed by Roman senators of the Opti Met tradition, such as Marcus Posius Cato and Marcus Calparnius Bybulus. With Caesar's conquest of Gaul, Roman rule extended as far as the Atlantic Ocean, and it was under Caesar 's leadership that Britain first invaded Britain. This invasion took place in the 6th century BC. It happened at 55. However, with the collapse of the three-person domination, there were clashes with Pompey and the Senate. BC In 49, he led his army across the Rubicon River and launched a civil war, making him the undisputed leader of the Roman Empire.

With the seizure of state power, Caesar called for drastic reforms to Roman society and its system of government. He was named Roman Emperor for the rest of his life, and the regime of the Republic was strongly centered around him. However, under the guidance of Marcus Junius Brutus, an early friend of Caesar's, a group of senators ruled in favor of Caesar. 44 Caesar was assassinated on March 15. The purpose of the assassination was to restore the Roman Republic to its original state. The result, however, was the start of another Roman civil war. It eventually adopted Rome under Caesar Octavianus, his son, who was adopted by Caesar. BC In 42, two years after Caesar's assassination, the Senate officially named Caesar a Roman god.

Much of Caesar's life is revealed in Caesar's own account of his military campaigns and other contemporary sources. These other contemporary sources include letters written by Caesar's political opponent Cicero and his lectures, ancient writings by Salast, and poems by Catalus. More detailed accounts of Caesar's life have been documented by later historians such as Appian, Sutonius, Plutarch, Cassius Dio, and Strabo.
