Mark Antony was roman general serving under Julius Caesar at the time. Julius fell in love with Cleopatra before being murdered and betrayed by Brutus. However Mark Antony continued to serve in Egypt (which was under roman rule) he too fell in love with Cleopatra and was then killed during an Egyptian uprising.
He went to the senate and got killed by his friends. That's how he was assassinated. People thought he was a terrible ruler and chose to rebel. Part of the first answer is true, there is, however, more to the story of Caesar's assassination then that. Here are some additional pieces of information, some of which contradicts the first answer: * The Roman Senate awarded Caesar the title of dictator. The inital title was to be a term of ten years, later they extended Caesar's dictatorship for life; * Caesar was popular with two important segments of ancient Rome, the military and the common people of Rome; * Caesar's legion veterans respected him for the conquests he led them in along with the booty he shared with them as well. He also tried to find land and colonies for retired military veterans; * Caesar began certain land reforms which helped the common Roman; * Caesar's public works projects also helped ease Roman unemployment; To the extent of what information is added, it would seem that Caesar was not a candidate for assassination. However, there remained problems that caused a conspiracy to form against him. Here is why: * Caesar had granted forgiveness and pardons to many of his former enemies in the Civil War he won against the Senate and their general Pompeius; * Many of these senators took advantage of their pardons to plot Caesar's death; * Caesar's relationship with Cleopatra did not serve him well. Cleopatra was not Roman but a Greek who ruled Egypt. This gave his enemies more of an incentive to kill him; * Some of the Senators, 17 or so, were in the conspiracy to slay Caesar because they believed he wanted the title of king, which was a hated title based on Rome's past; * The idea that he wanted to be king combined with the fear some senators had about Caesar's absolute power gave them concern; and * The assassins believed that with Caesar out of the way, the former Roman Republic could be restored. This meant the republic dominated by the Senate.
Caesar's assassination led to civil wars between the Second Triumvirate, an alliance between Octavian (later he was called Augustus) Mark Antony and Lepidus (who had been supporters of Caesar) and the opponents of Caesar, starting from his murderers (Brutus and Cassius). After these wars, there was the Final Civil War of the Roman Republic. This was a fight for power between Octavian and Mark Antony and his ally, Cleopatra VII of Egypt. Octavian wan and became the first Roman emperor under the name of Augustus.
In Shakespeare's "Julius Caesar," when Marc Antony refers to Caesar as a "bleeding piece of earth," he is expressing deep sorrow and anger over Caesar's assassination. This phrase highlights Caesar's vulnerability and humanity, as he was once a powerful leader but is now a lifeless body on the ground. Antony's words serve to evoke sympathy for Caesar and to rally the crowd against the conspirators who killed him, framing the act as a betrayal of a beloved leader.

The first consul to serve seven terms in ancient Rome was Gaius Julius Caesar. He was appointed consul multiple times during his political career, with his final term occurring in 44 BCE, shortly before his assassination. Caesar's repeated consulships were a reflection of his significant power and influence in Roman politics during the late Republic.
Caesar exposed the weakness of the Roman Republic through his extremely developed military and organisational skills. He proved that the Roman republican senate was not capable of handling the empire's affairs through his demonstration of what Rome required to be a successful republican empire. According to Örjan Wikander[1], Caesar's short reign ended the republic.---- [1] Örjan Wikander is a modern historian who published a brief landmark study in 1984, covering areas of Caesars reign.
In "The Tragedy of Julius Caesar," Julius Caesar didn't take the soothsayer, Artemidorus seriously, and saw his insistence that he look at the letter immediately a sign of the man's insanity. As a result, he didn't look at the letter that could have saved his life.

A Cesarean section, also called a C-section, is often believed to have come from the fact that Julius Caesar had to be cut from his mother's womb. This is not really likely, even though the operation was performed in Roman times, usually to save the infant of a mother who had died during labor. Historians don't give much credit to this story because Julius Caesar's mother bore six children after Julius and lived into Julius' adulthood, to serve as one of his advisers. Another theory of the origin of this term is that a man called Pliney the Elder, a Roman author and naturalist, wrote of an ancestor of Julius Caesar (who happened to have the same name) having been ab utero caeso" (cut from the womb), a sign of greatness from the gods.It's easy to see how over time the words 'caeso' and Caesar became merged and the circumstance of birth attributed to the emperor instead of his ancestor, or at least why this story is thought to be the origin of the term. There are a number of other languages that have similar derivites from which the use of the word could have originated.
