None of the emperors were responsible for burning down Rome. The misconception is about the emperor Nero who, being helpless in the face of the disaster, spent his time doing trivial things while waiting for reports. In other words, he "fiddled around" while Rome burnt. Besides, Nero's could not possibly have fiddled, because the violin hadn't been invented in his time.
If you are referring to the great fire in Nero's reign, no one actually burnt the city. The fire started by accident in one of the shops that lined the Circus Maximus. It was a hot dry summer and the winds caused the fire to spread out of control. Poor old Nero got blamed for it because it was a known fact that he wanted to rebuild the slums of the city. The Christians , who were a disliked religious group due to their clannishness and aggressiveness, were hindering the firefighters and some ancient sources say that they even were seen carrying torches to spread the fire. This was due to the Christian belief at the time that Rome would be destroyed by fire before the Second Coming of Christ, which they thought was to happen immediately. So we have the blame game. Nero (who wasn't even in the city at the time) wanted cleared space for his building projects and the Christians who thought they were helping their God. So an accidental fire has become a two thousand year old controversy.

There was no Roman emperor who fiddled while Rome burned. This was a misinterpretation of the term "fiddling around". It was applied to Nero by a historian of later ages who used the term to connote that Nero, out of frustration, began doing trivial things just to keep occupied , while waiting for the reports of the fire to come in. Besides, the violin had not been invented in Nero's time.

some blamed go for it. While others blamed jews for it.
It is a comment made about the emperor Nero during the great fire of Rome. Nero, in his frustration at not being able to have the fire stopped, did trivial and frivolous things while waiting for the gloomy reports. A historian used the term "fiddled while Rome burnt", not in the sense that Nero played the violin (which was unknown at the time), but in the sense that he did meaningless things while waiting--he fiddled around. It is reported that he strummed his lyre and composed a poem about the burning of Troy for want of anything practical to do.
The emperor Nero who legend has it played his fiddle while Rome burned.Nero used to also light his garden parties by burning Christians on stakes around the grounds.
