During Caesar's funeral, Antony made accusations against the conspirators who were behind Caesar's murder and named and shamed them. He also read Caesar's will which left most of his property to the people. The people became enraged and rioted. Caesar had been very popular with the middle and lower classes. He was seen as the champion of the people.

How was Caesar's murder avenged?

Caesar's murder was avenged primarily through the actions of his supporters, notably Mark Antony and Octavian (later Augustus). Following the assassination on March 15, 44 BCE, they rallied forces against the conspirators, leading to a civil war. This culminated in the defeat of the conspirators at the Battle of Philippi in 42 BCE, where Brutus and Cassius were killed. Ultimately, this set the stage for the rise of Octavian and the end of the Roman Republic.
