  1. no one will ever know .....


  2. Caesar was known for very successful battle tactics. But there was a reason why someone wanted to assassinate him. Maybe if he was still alive and not dead in 44 BC, he would have still been dead over the reforms of farmers.

  3. You'd have to define the problems, he did put into place various measures to improve the lot of the populace and the soldiers, but ultimately he was a dictator in a city state that, historically, abhorred any political system that resulted rule by one man.

  4. nobody will ever you

  5. I don't think so because obviously some people believed that he was a tyrant so if he continued in power people wouldn't be united under him.If he tried to force his laws and reforms on this opposition then that will just continue to add onto Rome's problems thus leading them to the same fate.

  6. Much as I admire Julius, for his courage, idealism, and sense of humor - I don't think he could have solved Rome's problems if he lived, because Augustus Ceasar essentially ended up doing what his uncle, Julius, would have done.  He enjoyed all the powers Julius had (just chose to use different titles, eg., First Citizen or Princeps instead of 'dictator for life'), and did not represent any change in policy.

  7. He WAS Rome's problem.
