What helped Ceasar to become the most powerful dictator in Rome?

Historians have recently made a comment about the motive of the Roman dictator Gaius Julius Caesar's pursuit of all power.

According to Express, Gaius Julius Caesar was a dictator, politician, and military general who played an important role in the period of decline of the Roman Republic and transformed into the Roman empire.

Caesar was a brilliant general, equal to Genghis Khan or Alexander the Great.

In the military career, Caesar was on par with Alexander the Great, Hannibal, Genghis Khan or Napoleon. Caesar is known as one of the 10 greatest generals in the world.

In 60 BC, Caesar, along with Marcus Licinius Crassus and Gnaeus Pompey Magnus, formed a political union that dominated Roman politics for many years.

Caesar became one of the most powerful politicians in the Roman Republic through a number of achievements, notably victories in the Gallic War , in 51 BC.

In 50 BC, the Senate Institute, headed by Pompey, who had been his ally, ordered Caesar to disband the army and return to Rome. The Senate Institute also banned Caesar from running for office. In this situation, Caesar thought he would be isolated from political life if he returned to Rome. Pompey also accused Caesar of "disobedience" and "conspiracy to create treason".

Date 10.1. 49 BC, Caesar crossed the Rubicone River (near the Italian border) with only one army of Roman legionnaires (Legio XIII) and launched a civil war. Caesar pursues Pompey to the end, hoping to restore allies, but Pompey continues to flee.

Caesar was an important player when the Roman Republic gradually fell, replaced by the Roman Empire.

In the end, Caesar destroyed Pompey's main army in Hispania. Later, Caesar advanced, attacking Pompey in Greece. Caesar cleverly won the victory, although Pompey's force was much stronger (3 times more than infantry and significantly more infantry).

Returning to Rome after a resounding victory, Caesar became the holder of absolute power and influence in Rome.

After taking control of the government, Caesar continued to seize power, eventually becoming 'a lifetime dictator'.

In the Amazon documentary, historians reveal Caesar's power ambition from a childhood . 'At the age of 15, Caesar got into the political arena, wearing a toga - a special costume of a Roman citizen. He followed his father around Rome. '

'Under the Republic, Rome had taken over the Mediterranean, its wealth was immense, people's lives were improved. But political uncertainties have never ended , ' the documentary said.

Caesar's father is a congressman, working in the government of Rome. Caesar's life changes when his father dies.

Keith Hopkins, former professor at Cambrigde University, UK, revealed about Rome politics. ' Rome is a system of nobles, in which the nobility competes with each other to vote for political offices. But the people who vote are the people. '

The painting depicts the moment Caesar was assassinated.

'The aristocrats are constantly competing for power, pulling the army in to resolve the conflict , ' Hopkins said. 'As a result, there have been countless civil wars between political parties.'

Professor Averil Cameron from Oxford University, explains Caesar's thirst for victory, thirst for power.'Caesar was born into a high-class family, but they are gradually losing power. That is probably the motivation for Caesar to try to restore the image of the family '.

'Caesar's father soon died, leaving him to build a career alone. He has tried his best in his political career and I am sure there is a great impetus for his ambition, ' Cameron said.

Professor Andrew Wallace-Hadrill from the University of Cambridge, said: 'Caesar growing up in a family needs the power to survive the civil wars in the political arena. Caesar has pressure, effort, desire to succeed. '

In 44 BC, Caesar was assassinated by political opponents, led by Gaius Cassius Longinus, Marcus Junius Brutus and Decimus Junius Brutus. He was stabbed a total of 23 times. Brave to the last moment, Caesar said : 'It is better to die once than to live continuously in fear of death'.

Caesar's death ushered in a new civil war, causing the Roman Republic to collapse. Caesar's nephew, Octavian, who was designated to inherit the estate, assumed full power after wiping out his opponents. Octavian also seized power, starting the era of the Roman Empire.
