when brutus kills Caesar he falls at the base of a statue of pompey: the ruler who he just overthrew.
In William Shakespeare's play "Julius Caesar," the irony lies in the fact that Caesar's body is lying at the base of Pompey's statue. This is ironic because Pompey was Caesar's rival and the one whom Caesar defeated in battle.

There are two main ironies in the crowd's reaction to Brutus's speech. First, Brutus explains to the crowd that the only reason he killed Caesar was that Caesar was too ambitious. Brutus says he participated in murdering Caesar in order to keep from getting too much power.
Caesar and Julia were descended from the lines of Marius and Cinna respectively. Possibly Sulla thought that their union represented a "match" of two of his enemies which he may have found to beoffensive or possibly threatened byany offspring of that marriage. R Martius - Pekin IL
