I'm teaching "Julius Caesar" right now to my 10th graders.\n\nCaesar--Killed Pompey and his sons.  He is loved by commoners.  He was offered the crown three times and refused three times (as a show of humility). He is superstitious and consults with augurers.  He is a fatalist (believes that he cannot fight fate).  He demonstrates hubris (excessive pride) frequently; "Danger knows full well that Caesar is more dangerous than he".  His dying words "Et tu Brute? Then fall Caesar" are famous and show his shock at Brutus's betrayal.  He also created the "spirit of Caesar" (the commoners' preference for an emporer rather than a republic).\n\nBrutus--the tragic hero of the play.  His tragic flaw is his tendency to trust people too much.  He is noble and patriotic and kills Caesar for the right reason.  Makes several errors throughout the play.   \n\nMark Antony--Caesar's nephew.  Crafty and manipulative.  A tyrant after Caesar's death.  Able to sway the crowds at Caesar's funeral.  \n\nCassius--provides the catalyst for Caesar's assassination.  He is hot-tempered, quick to anger, but also quick to cool down.  He is the voice of reason among the conspirators.  \n\nCasca--easily led.  Not too clever.  The first to stab Caesar.  \n\nPortia--Brutus's wife.  Considers herself Brutus's equal.  Stabs herself in the thigh to show Brutus that she can endure pain.  Kills herself by swallowing hot coals because she wants Brutus to come home.  \n\nCalpurnia--superstitious (she interprets her dream as a bad omen).  \n\nCicero--senator of Rome.  He is wise and well-spoken.  He is killed by the new triumvirate (Octavius, Antony, and Lepidus) after Caesar's death.  \n\nFavius/Marullus--supporters of Pompey.  They make the commoners feel guilty when they are awaiting Caesar's return after killing Pompey.  Remove the scarves and decorations from Caesar's statues and are killed because of doing so.

Caligula, that guy had style.  Apointed his horse to snate.  Decided he needed more money for his government so he conscripted all the senators wives and put them in a state run brothel.  During the gladiatorial games he use to have fans thrown into the arena to fight to the death.\n\nThat is just a few of the things he did.  He definately put the rant in tyrant.

That depends on the question. If it refers to the united provincies then it would be Qin Zi Ying from the Qin dynasty. He became emperor 207 BCE. Although this was also during the 3 states period. Priot to this there were the waring states, where each province had their own Emperor

The answer is kind of convoluted, so I have provided the link to snopes.com article on the urban myth that they are supposed to be Charlemagne, David, Caesar, & Alexander.

You must be studying in class 10 in India (CBSE) Am I right. well, I scored 94.4% in 2006 Board Exams.\nSo was Caesar an honourable man? I think he was. \nBecause:\n1)He, in his will to the romans, said that he was leaving each of them 75 Dracmas(Silver coins), his orchards etc.\n2)He stood firm in his decision to banish Metillus Cimber.\n3)He was committed to the people of rome.
