Julius Caesar should not and could not be a king because of Roman tradition. It is said that when the last king was overthrown and the republic formed, that all the Roman citizens were required to take a vow that there would never be another king over them. The ancestor conscious Romans held to this mindset, even though it may have been only a myth. In addition, in Caesar's case, he already had all the powers of a king so the title "king" would have no meaning for him.
Caesar was never emperor; he was a dictator. Also, even if he had been an emperor, the age of the monarchy would have been over in Rome.
Julius Caesar did not want to be a "king" in the strict sense of the word. King was a nasty word to the Romans. But Caesar did want all the power, so he was satisfied with the title and powers of a dictator. The reasons for his power-grab were because of his impatience with the slow moving senate, the resistance to some of his reforms and his own ego.
1. Julius Caesar is dead, and has been for over 2000 years.2. During his lifetime he never held the title of king (rex) or emperor (imperator). Consul or dictator, yes, but not king or emperor.3. Caesar's military commands took him to a number of places, most notably Gaul (modern France) but he was not the ruler of those places like a king would be. Caesar was a citizen of Rome, if that helps.

Julius Caesar was NOT a king, Rome had been a republic for several hundred years. Before that, it had been ruled by kings, and after Caesar's murder it soon switched to emperors (for the first decades there were 2 then 3 rulers at the same time, but then they decided 1 emperor was enough!).

Julius Caesar was murdered because certain members of the Roman Senate were sure that Caesar wanted all the powers and prestige of a king.

This power and honor was denied Caesar by a relatively small group of senators that murdered him.
