Did Augustus Caesar get stabed to death?
No one killed Augustus. He died of old age while visiting Nola, the town where his father died. Tacitus and Cassius Dio wrote that Livia had been rumored to have poisoned Augustus with figs. However, such rumours were common when an emperor died. Historians then to see as view it as a fabrication made by those who had favoured Postumus as heir, instead of the one Augustus chose: Tiberius. Livia had the subject of l rumors of poisoning on the behalf of her son for quite a while. Augustus was 77 when he died.
How big was Julius Caesar's empire?
It's impossible to give an accurate head count of Caesar's army. It would all depend on how many legions he had with him in his various wars. Now a legion, at least on paper, consisted of 5,000 men, but most of the time they were greatly undermanned. So if Caesar had, for example, five legions, he would technically have 25,000 men. But the reality of the situation could very well be half that number.
How did Julius Caesar become bad?
Julius Caesar
Do you really think that a person that takes over and controls your life is a hero? Julius Caesar is evil! He killed, enslaved, and robbed the Gauls. Took over Rome, became dictator by force! He's a villain!
Yeah he gave land, reduced taxes, and gave citizenship; but he only did those acts to become more reliable! The only reason that his army honored and respected him is because he bribed them with the money that he stole from the Gauls. I see Julius Caesar as a stubborn, stuck up, disrespected, person that only cares about himself. Not to mention that he's an outlaw.
How did Julius Caesar becaome a leading public figure?
Julius Caesar became a leading public figure due to his personality and the fact that he was elected to all the public offices necessary for him to become consul and then a governor.
Why is the title of Julius Caesar ironic?
Caesar was supposed to have died at the foot of the statue of Pompey, the man he defeated in the civil war. Whether this is true is an open question. However he did die in the meeting hall of the theater of Pompey where the senate convened. Pompey built it.
Who produced the Julian calender?
The Julian calendar is a calendar that was invented by Julius Caesar, the leader of Ancient Rome. It is a reform of the Roman calendar. It was first used in the year 709 Ab urbe condita, or 45 BC. Caesar consulted the astronomer Sosigenes of Alexandria. Very probably it was made to approximate the tropical year, which was known at least since Hipparchus.
The calendar has a regular year of 365 days divided into 12 months, and a leap day is added every four years to the month of February, making the average Julian year 365.25 days.
In the 16th century, the Gregorian calendar was introduced in Europe because it was more accurate with regard to the length of the year, and it also moved the date for the vernal equinox, the first day of spring (or of fall in the Southern Hemisphere) to where it belonged again, on March 21. The Gregorian calendar has 97 leap days every 400 years, while the Julian had exactly 100.
Some countries used this calendar to the 20th century. Mount Athos, and many national Eastern Orthodox churches still use the Julian calendar, or a revised form, introduced in 1923.
The main problem with the Julian Calendar is that it makes too many leap days, which means that it gains a day about every 128 years.
People sometimes use the term Old Style or O.S. to refer to the Julian calendar, with N.S. or New Style referring to the Gregorian calendar.

What reforms were enacted by Augustus Caesar?
Augustus enacted so many reforms that its hard to list them all, but here are some. He changed the government by appointing competent men to the senate and other positions of responsibility. He reformed the army by having the soldiers swear their oaths to him as commander in chief instead of to their generals. This safeguarded against the possibility of an ambitious general starting another civil war. He secured the borders and devoted most of his military attention to solving unrest in the provinces Rome already held. He rebuilt the city of Rome both in buildings and infrastructure. He divided Rome into wards with their own limited form of control, such as minor arrests and fire fighting. He built aqueducts and roads in the provinces.

Why is the play called The Tragedy of Julius Caesar instead of The Tragedy of Marcus Brutus?
Julius Caesar is a much more famous historical figure than Brutus. And, although Brutus is the play's main character, it centres around the murder of Caesar, both the planning of it and the consequences of it.
It is not as bizarrely misnamed as The Merchant of Venice, which one imagines ought to be either The Moneylender of Venice or The Heiress of Belmont.
It depends on how you define 'good'.
He was a soldier for the majority of his life and led armed forces into battle, so he must certainly have done a fair ammount of killing. Did he commit war-time attrocities, like kill women and children, or execute enemy soldiers after they had surrendered? The answers to those questions are lost forever, but chances are that he probably did both at some time or another. There were rules regarding conduct then, just as there are now, but war is ugly business.
In his later years, he was a cunning and ambitous politician. It is well known that when he made himself emperor, he did so in blatant defiance of long standing laws designed to prevent any one individual from wielding absolute power. Did he break laws and abuse public trust? Did he threaten the members of Rome's social and political elite with war and/or assasination if they tried to oppose him? Again, probably. They didn't assasinate him for no reason. Politics is ugly business.
Julius Caesar ushered in a long period of relative peace and prosperity for Rome, but in those days, as in these days, peace is only held through the threat or application of force...peace and prosperity for one nation often means hardship and oppression for others. Also, Rome during the period of peace was no shining example of goodwill towards men...there just wasn't anyone with the power and the will to attack Rome then: they had become a formidable force, not to be attacked or challenged lightly.
All in all, Julius Caesar was most likely not an EVIL man, nor a GOOD man...but rather somewhere in between, just like about 99% of humanity.
it depends on your own personal point of view. some see him as a visionary leader who was supposed to lead his people out of a rut and others saw him as a power hungry tyrant. this is a question that is subjective to opinion. Julius Caesar was a good man and was a role model to children he loved the Romans and respected them.
What Egyptian queen did Julius Caesar date?
It was Cleopatra. In actual fact, this was a power play on Cleopatra's part. She became the lover of the most powerful man in Rome to avert the possibility of a Roman invasion of Egypt. The affair was also an alliance between Egypt and the man who dominated Roman politics. Had the Romans decided to invade, Egypt would not have been able to stand up to Roman military might.
Who was the queen that had an affair with Caesar and Antony?
Queen Cleopatra had affairs with Ceaser and Anthony.
What line from Brutus's speech in The Tragedy of Julius Caesar most clearly show pathos?
As Caesar loved me, I weep for him; / as he was fortunate, I rejoice at it
Did Julius Caesar love his sister?
Brutus' conflict over love is a theme throughout the play. Many characters throughout the play seem to contest for his love. Upset by Brutus' distracted manner as he ponders his role in the conspiracy, Portia cries out "Dwell I but in the suburbs of your good pleasure? If it be no mor Portia is Brutus' harlot, not his wife." Near the end of the play, Cassius, who seems to truly love Brutus, cries out "When thou didst hate him [Caesar] worst, thou lovedst him better than ever thou lovedst Cassius." And finally, Brutus remarks "Not that I loved Caesar less, but that I loved Rome more." So, possible choices include Caesar, Portia, Cassius, and Rome (or its people.) He is willing to Kill Caesar for the good of Rome, He leaves Portia in Rome where she commits suicide out of loneliness and despair, and He drives Cassius to ask Brutus to kill him because he feels he is "hated by one he loves." Perhaps, then, Brutus loves the people of Rome, since he appears to be willing to betray everyone else close to him for the republican cause. The problem with this, however, is that the people loved Caesar. What is Rome if not its people? Who was he killing Caesar for? The possibility that I personally feel is the most likely is that the only thing that he truly loves is his own honor. Near the beginning of the play, he utters the famous words "I love the name of honor more than I fear death," and from this point on he never once seems willing to forsake his nobility for love or any other pragmatic reality. The better question, then, seems to be "what" not "who" did brutus love.
Why does portia kill herself in Julius Caesar?
Portia kills herself because of the stress that Brutus, her husband, puts on her after the death of Caesar. She cannot accept his involvement and change of mood.
What does Decius Brutus convince Caesar that the blood in Porias dream represents?
Brutus wish the conspirators could do to Caesar
