It use to be that the senate ruled the Roman Empire then Julius said that he was emperor and the senate was subordinate to him. This was a serious demotion to the senators, they didn't appreciate it, so they killed Julius. That didn't put an end to the emperors however. Roman Emperors continued for another thousand years.

∙ 9y agoThe history of Julius Cesar as a politician is in constant debate. Much of this has to do with the complexity of his role. Cesar was at one point both a dictator and an elected official. He did strengthen the senate by establishing close ties with Italy and other provinces. He made them all one collective unit to solidify Roman control.

∙ 13y agoNo, Julius Caesar ran roughshod over the power of the senate. He was a man who liked things done quickly and had no patience for the long-winded speeches and debates in the senate. He pushed through legislation, many times without consulting the senate. That's the reason for so much hatred against him by certain senators.
