The Jews were never able to regain control over their Roman rulers because they never had the control in the first place. Judaea was an allied kingdom of Rome during the time of Herod the Great and his successors. This meant that Rome called the shots such as approving the High Priests and rulers, even though the kingdom was nominally independent. When the Jews were foolish enough to try to revolt, Rome came down hard on them.
They didn't. For the most part. There was a time called "Gizeiros HaShmad" meaning: decrees of destruction-because there were laws forbidding Jews to obey their religion-thereby destroying their spiritual growth. There were however certain times during certain rulers when the Jews were allowed to practice their beliefs.

Nobody in particular. The rulers of Pressburg/Pozsony/Bratislava continuously granted permission for the Jews to settle in the city throughout its history from the Roman Period to the Holocaust.
The Jews did not hate the Romans. It was the other way around. Answer 2 During the roman empire one of the many things that set the Jews apart from the Romans and other nations was monotheism, the belief in ONE god. becuase of this, the Romans eventually singled out the Jews to destroy them.
Jews were generally used as money-lenders in the Middle Ages because Christians were not allowed to lend money. In spite of this, there was still a lot of persecution. This varied by area. Roman rulers, for example, tended to be more lenient than others.
No the Romans did. The Jews did not directly crucify Jesus , but they demanded that the Romans who were their rulers and Pilate the Governer gave the order to crucify Jesus.
The Maccabee victory affected the government of Judah because in 63 B.C, after the Maccabees had won ,Rome conquered Judah and called it Judea. Roman rulers kept strict control over Judea. The Jews were allowed to have Jewish Kings and religious leaders, but these kings and leaders were appointed by Rome.
They didn't. Caesar, like most Roman rulers, was fairly apathetic regarding the Jews as a specific group. They were tolerated like any other religion or ethnicity, provided they didn't cause trouble (basically, this meant incite rebellion or do weird things in public).
