How did theocracy evolve in the roman empire?

While the Roman Empire was never a theocracy as we know it - it was not ruled by a priesthood in the name of any deity - it is also true that Roman emperors did often declare themselves to be gods, and erected shrines to themselves. That was a quasi-theocracy - much like the current government of North Korea, which has deified the current dictator, Kim Jong Il.


Who are three demigods?

A demigod is a deified mortal, a mythological being who is half god and half mortal. Due to their divine parentage, demigods are able to accomplish super-human feats of strength and valor. Three Greek demigods would be Heracles (father Zeus, mother Alcmene), Theseus (father Poseidon, mother Aethra) and Perseus (father Zeus, mother Danae).
