<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Marsman, post: 3325549, member: 99177&quot;]Nobody weeped is certainly true for the senate. However, some sources say he was relatively popular amongst some parts of the Roman population. Probably due to the many extravagant games he organised. And of course his father, who was very popular, was certainly not forgotten !</p><p><br /></p><p>Caligula is often portrayed as a cruel, sadistic monster. When you look at Roman history through modern eyes, I often wonder who were the real monsters in those days. For instance, ‘good guys’ like Titus (Judean wars) and Trajanus (Dacian wars) were responsible for the slaughtering and slavery of thousands and thousands of innocent people including women and children.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
