<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Sallent, post: 2676801, member: 76194&quot;]Blasphemy! Nero was a good Emperor and the proof is that decades after his death, people were still pretending to be Nero and using his image to lead rebellions. Even 200 years after his death there was a thriving cult that believed Nero would come back from the dead (like a Roman messiah of sorts). It is also recorded that even a hundred years after Nero&#039;s death, many thousands of people were flocking to his tomb to lay flowers.</p><p><br /></p><p>Maybe Nero wasn&#039;t popular with the rich and wealthy senators, and they arranged to overthrow him, and tarnished his reputation by paying writers to write nasty gossip about him, but the average Romans (ie. the great majority of Romans) absolutely loved Nero.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
