Bad. For roman patircians and for Senate he was bad ruler cause he hated nobility and having bad reputation he did resort all kind of cruelity to ensure his authority and power. He also persecuted Jews and Christians (one theory says that it was Domitian who is actual anichrist mentioned in Book of Revelations).

He did start unsucceful campaign in Dacia and caused financial disaster.

Is Akbar a good ruler or a bad ruler?

Akbar is actually a Mughal Emperor who was The ruler in India during the early 1700s. Before Akbar's rule Mughal era was not well known. Akbar was very good with keeping perfect political relations. This ruler singlehandedly almost unfied India in all its multi-ethinicity. However he was still an invader from the west. Hence it is quite ambiguious where he lies on terms of being a good or bad ruler. But in comparison to his grandson aurangazeb who desecrated andd destroyed temples, Akbar was a very good ruler. So yea make your choice.
