By the time that Rome had the emperors, the senate was nothing more than a rubber stamp for the emperor's wishes. Debate was allowed but the outcome was never in doubt. Many of the emperors used the senate as a tool for justifying their own plans. Caligula had so little respect for the senate that he claimed his horse could do a better job than the consuls.

During the Roman Empire, the Senate was largely a tool of the Emperor, whoever it may have been at the time. The Emperor sat in on Senate proceedings, could speak at any time, and basically told them what to do if he had an opinion. One might say that they were for show. When Octavian/Gaius Julius Caesar Augustus became the first Emperor in 27 BCE, he maintained the Senate rather than dissolving them so that the Patrician class wouldn't fly into an outrage. It gave them a sense that they still had some power, though in actuality the Emperor had first and final say on anything. The Senate saw such issues as criminal trials (which the Emperor and the Emperor only could change the outcome of, at his whim)and passed down laws (usually that was the Emperor using the Senate as a vehicle to make a law, rather than the Senate actually contributing to it). After Diocletian resolved his power throughout the Empire and tightened the reins in the early 300's CE, the Senate lost its' last vestige of power---they no longer had any say in an Emperor taking power. So, really, they were more like a Presidential Cabinet than a true Senate.
Caligula, or Gaius as was his proper name, was the third Roman emperor. Immature and totally untrained for the job of emperor, some say he went mad, although his sanity situation is being reevaluated today. At any rate he was known for his immaturity and his excesses. He was the first Roman emperor to be assassinated.Caligula, or Gaius as was his proper name, was the third Roman emperor.

The two groups that ruled in Rome in place of a king were the Senate and the Roman People. (SPQR). The senate was the debating and consulting body, the 'Roman people" were the voting assemblies.
Nero was only sixteen years old when he became emperor. However, due to the Roman way of denoting age, some writers say he was seventeen although this is false. According to the Roman count, Nero was in his seventeenth year which means that he had not yet reached his seventeenth birthday.
There is no way you can prove he did or he didn't have a cat, but I would say he probably didn't since I have never heard anyone say anything about Julius Caesar having a cat.

This is a matter of personal opinion. Many people would say Julius Caesar, but he was never an emperor. (He might qualify for the most famous Roman, though) As far as the genuine emperors go, some would say Augustus, some Hadrian and others Tiberius or Constantine.
Roman should always be capitalized because it is a proper noun.
IXL sounds like I excel!
It seems likely that Decius (249-251) was the first Roman emperor to officially persecute Christians.AnswerYou could loosely say it was Nero, although he did not persecute them for their faith, but for the crime of arson. Some authorities say there was a persecution under the emperor Domitian, other doubt this. The major persecutions came under the emperors Decius, Valerian and Diocletian.
Diocletian was a Roman emperor who ruled from 284 to 305 AD. He is known for his administrative reforms, including the division of the Roman Empire into eastern and western halves, each with its own ruler. Diocletian also implemented price controls and persecuted Christians during his reign.
In the Roman Government the Senate was made up of 'Patricians' who are men from wealthy families. The 'Plebeians' were the poor people and they had no say in how their country was run.

If you mean a Roman senator, any freeborn male who met the personal and financial requirements. To apply for entry into the senate a man had to be of good character and to have the minimum of one million sesterces in assets. (Some sources say that this was later increased to two million) It also helped to have influential friends to help with the confirmation to the senate. Another way to become a senator was to be elected to an office that had automatic entry into the senate. A man could also be appointed to the senate by an emperor.If you mean a Roman senator, any freeborn male who met the personal and financial requirements.
