This. based Caesar. fuck the Roman backstabbers.

>As Caesar’s army entered Rome, Pompey and the Roman Senate fled for their lives. Caesar declared himself Emperor and pursued Pompey all the way to Egypt. Once there, he committed a rare tactical blunder and found himself besieged in Alexandria by Pompey’s army and its allies. Sorely in need of friends, he looked for any help that would extricate him from his dangerous situation.

>Until that time, Hyrcanus had been an official ally of Pompey. However, he shrewdly switched sides and declared his allegiance to Caesar. He then committed over 3,000 Jewish soldiers to an expeditionary force that invaded Egypt and helped raise the siege of Alexandria.

>Thus, when the Roman civil war ended in Julius Caesar’s complete victory Hyrcanus was in a fortuitous position. Indeed, Caesar showed the Jews his gratitude for their help. He revoked the harsh decrees and burdensome taxation imposed by Pompey. He also allowed the walls and fortifications of Jerusalem to be rebuilt and restored Jaffa as well as a number of other coastal cities to Jewish rule.

Caligula didn't do anything wrong.
>>
>>76293359
He was purging Roma of all the senators that succesfully wiped out his family. Including his based father Germanicus who everybody mourned, even the Germans and Parthians, and all the plebs, and yet Tiberias wouldn't even mourn as the story goes, and tiberias raised Caligula as seutonius records and made his life a living hell. and Caligula acted like a perfect child. And when he finally became imperator he killed all those bastards. Making his horse consul and making roman soldiers collect seashells were insults/punishments

Caligula didn't do anything wrong.

>>76293594
The written records record rumors of the wives of the Claudian family such as Augustus wife as to blame, even their own full blooded heirs. But the sentators had much more to gain, so rumors were spread. They had every reason to wipe out all the Octavians, Caesars, and Claudians so they could secretly rule Rome with a puppet imperator.

Although Nero and Tiberias very well may have been puppets to the senate, it's safer to just kill off their progeny.
