He was a dictator in Rome. He started the great fire in Rome, and blamed it on Christians. Later, members of Senate and the army rebelled, and he came down from his reign. Him starting the fire was actually just a rumor. He tryed to get everyone out of the fire in time, and luckly (or so he thought at the time) he survived. People did rebel--so you got that part right--but it was false accusation. He didn't much like being harrased, and made a fool of, so he tryed to stop the rumors. No one would listen. And not much later he was assanated. xD
There were five good emperors (a term which was coined by Machiavelli and is still used). They were: Nerva, Trajan, Hadrian, Antoninus Pius and Marcus Aurelius. Although Commodus was Marcus Aurelius' son and chosen heir, he is not considered one of the good emperors. He had little interest in state administration and delegated the running of the state to his favourites. He preferred to live outside Rome, spending his time hunting. His bad rule led to several conspiracies, his assassination and the so-called Year of the Five Emperors. In this year five men fought each other to become emperors. Four of them were deposed soon after usurping the tile. The last one, Septimius Severus, managed to hold on to power. Commodus' rule was described by an ancient historian as the descent "from a kingdom of gold to one of rust and iron."
There was no period of bad emperors as such. The term "five good emperors" is a historical tag given to the five emperors from Nerva to Marcus Aurelius because there was no great political crises during their reigns and the empire ran smoothly. A far as "bad emperors" went, you could say that every emperor had his negative points even Augustus -- some more than others.
The Romans believed that either damnation or deification came after death for their emperors. The bad ones, they "dammed their memory" and erased their names from the rolls of emperors. The good ones were deified and were considered gods.The Romans believed that either damnation or deification came after death for their emperors.
