Was Emperor Nero Antichrist?

No he was not. It was said that he persecuted the Christians to use them as a scapegoat because there were accusations that he deliberately started the fire of 64 AD. Historians doubt that because in such an early days, it is unlikely that the Christians were already distinguished from the Jews in Rome. It is also doubtful that Nero started the fire. It is likely that these were allegations made by later ancient historians who were hostile to him.


Which ruthless emperor blamed Christians for setting fire to Rome?

Yes, the Christians were blamed for setting fire to Rome; the emperor Nero was afraid of the growing populations that were turning to Christians, and so he thought he would scare them by torturing them in the gladitorial arenas, where they were ripped to shreds by lions. The fire, would give him an excuse to kill thousands of them. Strangely enough, the torturings in the arenas made people feel sympathetic towards Christians, and no one could stop the movements growth.


Why the domus aurea was built?

The Domus Aurea or Golden House, was built by the emperor Nero after the great fire of Rome. It was built for a dual purpose. The first was as a official residence for Nero. The second was for the enjoyment of the Roman people. It was huge and was a masterpiece of innovation. What many historians gloss over is that much of the area covered by the Domus Aurea was open to the public. Its landscaped gardens and lakes brought the country to the city.
