What did Brutus accused Cassius of?
He says that Cassius has an "itching palm," and is corrupting their noble cause by resorting to extortion in order to gain wealth for their armies. He also, ironically, is angry because Cassius has not sent him money since Brutus can "raise no money by vile means." He seems most troubled by the fact that the nobility of their assasination seems to be threatened. He is also most likely less composed than he has been throughout the play because he has just received news of the death of his wife, Portia.

Was Julius Caesar the first Roman emperor?
Julius Caesar was not actually an emperor, but a dictator. His career was such, however, that his very name became short-hand for imperial authority, not only in Latin, but in most of the languages of modern Europe. Other men conquered more land than Caesar did--he only made an expedition to Britain and conquered parts of modern day France. Other men enacted more sweeping legal and moral reforms--he allowed the status quo to continue mostly intact, and only innovated by reforming the calendar. Finally, other men ruled their nations for longer periods--Caesar died after only a few years in office following a bitter civil war with the senatorial faction. So, what's so special about Julius Caesar? He was instrumental in the transition from Republican government to Imperial Autocracy in ancient Rome; his family's eventual one hundred year dominance over the Empire ensured that his name would be remembered forever ("Caesar" as a title, and the month of "July" as an honor to his legacy). He was a witty, eloquent writer who justified his campaigns in his own books. He was usually gentlemanly/chivalrous to those he defeated (though not always). Finally, he was a military genius who won great acclaim on the battlefield against both Romans and non-Romans. In short, Julius Caesar is like a personification of the values of pagan Rome--an ambitious politician who dedicated his life to the pursuit of power and the extension of Roman culture. If Caesar was less personally influential than other rulers (even his own great-nephew, Augustus), his world and the success he found in it have ensured that he will be always treasured as the human face of Western Europe's greatest political success story. Another J. C. betrayed by a close friend would be born a hundred years after Caesar and represent a very different side of classical antiquity--one that would ultimately eclipse even Caesar's legacy.
