[QUOTE="Alegandron, post: 4557147, member: 51347"]This guy kinda started it all on a grand scale. I do not care for 90% of the Emperors, due to the institution created by destroying populations through genocide. I am more interested in the Republic up to the Gracchi... Today, many governments espouse the Ideals of the Republic, and eschew the Empire’s ways. I posted this before. [B][I]This guy killed off a lot of my Ancestors... millions according to his commentaries... Celts and Germans.[/I][/B] We make him a historical hero... Curious how we abhor political leaders who practiced human genocide in the 20th Century, but we enjoy the History of this man, who self-admittedly killed off HUGE percentages of ethnic populations? Then set the example for future leaders of that Empire... interesting perspectives... and somewhat hypocritical. I captured this one because of it was minted during the last 2 weeks prior to Caesar's assassination. [B][I]The symbol below the scepter is a STAR[/I][/B]. Cool premonition prior to his death!
