[QUOTE="Gentlemaninpa, post: 2999882, member: 93355"]He really was a horrible person. Anyone who would be so vicious enough to have Christians be set on fire while alive just to light his palace at night is pure evil in my book. And about the fiddling - whats the ironic part is this never happened.I have been doing alot of research on the subject First off, the fiddle had not been invented for 1500 years later.( he did play the harp- not the big one- one of those little ones) Second, he wasnt even in Rome at the time of the fire. Third , although he wasnt playing while it was burning, It is believed- or at least speculated by some information found before and during the fire that Nero might have actually ordered some people to set the fire-or started the [I]fire[/I] himself in order to clear land for his palace. [I]Nero [/I]needed to find someone else to blame, fast! [I]Nero[/I] thought of the Christians. That last part is speculation but i wouldnt put anything past that awful man[/QUOTE]
