Why did Julius Caesar start the civil war and not end it?
Julius Caesar started the civil war for self-preservation. The Senate had ordered him to disband his army and come to Rome to face charges of illegal actions during his counsulship. There was no way that a man of Caesar's pride and temperament would do this. However he did end the civil war by beating Pompey and then Pompey's son.

Julius Caesar returned to Gallia Cisalpina, a province in the north of Italy, after his wars in Gallia Translapina. The senate ordered him to disband his legions and return to Rome. Instead, Caesar crossed the River Rubicon, the boundary of this province, and marched on Rome with some of his troops. This was an act of declaration of war on the senate.

How did the first triumvirate start?
As you know, the first triumvirate was a "backroom" political alliance between Crassus, Pompey and Caesar. It had no legal or senatorial sanction as did the second triumvirate. It probably began as an idea of Caesar's. He was the one who brought about the reconciliation of Pompey and Crassus and as they became consuls, saw to it that Caesar kept his command in Gaul. This seemed to work out to each man's advantage as Caesar owed Crassus money and by his victories in Gaul got the loot to repay him, and Pompey, as Caesar's son-in-law was bound by honor to back him.

What caused the collapse of roman republic?
Here's what happened:Caesar WA getting to popular and the people absolutley loved him. Crassus and Pompey started to notice this, so they thought that if Caesar wanted, he could take over the leadership and become king of Rome. So Crassus and Pompey sent Caesar away into Gaul; there he was supposed to be put in shame. BUT..... he wasn't put into shame at Gaul, instead he gained glory there. Crassus who was old died and so Pompey was left alone in Rome, however, he still needed Caesar out of the picture. So, Pompey sent a letter to Caesar saying, "Congratulation on you Glory in Gaul, Please return to Rome so that we may 'Congratulate' you even more!" Not being stupid, Caesar knew that Pompey was preparing to kill him at night, while he was sleeping. This WA true! Pompey was preparing to kill him. He wanted to stab him multiple times at night (accidentally) so that no one could find out. However, Caesar took his men and started a Civil War against Pompey. Pompey ost the civil war and fled to Egypt and was later killed by Cleopatra. She presented Pompey's head on a plate and gave it to Caesar in order to be on his "good side". After that Caesar stayed at Egypt for a while "looking for Pompey's men". During that time Cleopatra gave birth to a baby named Caesarion, who she insisted was Caesar's child. Caesar however was like "that ain't my child" and left him. (lol the first abondenship from a father) Anyway no one knows if Caesarion is actually Caesar's kid (because we have no DNA test back then). However Caesarion literally means "little Caesar". Anyway, after Caesar left, Caesarion started a pizza buisness and named it 'Little Caesars" (jk :D) UGH! we got off topic; it collapse after Pompey and Crassus died, and Caesar took control of Rome. If you want to know more you have to ask about how did the 2nd Triumvirate start. Hope this helped alot of you people out there. CYA!MIKE2896 :P

Did Julius Caesar start a revolt against the senate?
The senate was angry with Caesar. He was hugely popular with the plebians, and he had overstayed his term as proconsul of Gaul, so they feared he might be planning an attack on Rome to take control of the Republic. So, they called for Caesar to lay down his arms and return to Rome for punishment. Caesar didn't accept their proposal, refusing to return for punishment for something he hadn't even done. The Senate then convinced Pompey (One of the two Consuls of Rome, the other one being Caesar himself) to mark Caesar as a traitor, and declare him an enemy of Rome. Caesar was displeased when he heard this, and decided to cross the Rubicon river and march on Rome. After defeating the armies of Pompey and the Senate at multiple battles, Caesar became Dictator of the Roman Republic.

What was Cleopatra's relationship with Julius Caesar was like?
The relatioship between Cleopatra and Caesar was one of mutual benefit, as was Cleopatra's relationship later with Marc Antony. One of the reasons that Caesar came to Egypt in the first place, was to see about payment of the massive debt that Egypt owed him. Cleo's father had borrowed heavily from the Roman money lenders in order to get his throne back, and Caesar and Pompey had bought up the debt. Pompey, being dead, Caesar could claim all the cash. However at that time Egypt was in financial trouble. So, Cleopatra was established on the throne, (Caesar had the authority to do this) along with her brother, and in return Caesar was to start getting payments. Forget about the big romance fable, knowing the character of Julius Caesar, the "romance" could not have been more than a one night stand. At any rate, Caesar, who was a good judge of character, never trusted Cleopatra. Proof of this is in the words of the officer who wrote the history of the Alexandrian War. He says that Caesar left four legions in Egypt for a double purpose. One was to safeguard Cleopatra and her brother, if they remained loyal, (they lacked popular support in Alexandria,) and the second was to coerce their loyalty if they were ungrateful.Caesar and Cleopatra's relationship was nothing like the romantics would have you believe. As Caesar was a known womanizer, he probably had a one night stand or two, with Cleo and then went on to other "conquests". Yes, there was a child, but his paternity is seriously disputed. At any rate, the relationship between Caesar and Cleopatra was for their mutual benefit. Cleopatra's father, Ptolemy XII, had been ousted from his throne and he wanted it back. He went to Rome and took out massive loans in order to pay armies to get his throne back. He died before he could repay. The money lenders in Rome, anxious for a return on their investment, sold the loan to the two wealthiest men in Rome, Caesar and Pompey. Caesar came to Egypt, not only chasing after Pompey, but chasing after his money too. In the settlement after the Alexandrian War, Caesar established Cleo on the throne, with the understanding that Cleopatra would pay him what he was owed. He left troops with her when he returned to Rome, both to see that she remained on the throne (the Alexandrians did not want her as queen and were notorious for overthrowing their rulers) and to made sure that she held up her end of the bargain, as, according to the writer of the Alexandrian war, Caesar did not entirely trust Cleopatra.
