A flawed work by an ignorant youth.
Cherea: No. We've had experience of mad emperors. But this one isn't mad enough.
Caligula was Rome's third emperor.
Neither of his predecessors, Augustus and Tiberius, was mad.
Was Caligula mad?
Was Nero?
I think not.
People just say that about monstrous politicians they way they say terrorists are cowards.
It is interesting how far Caligula had to push to get assassinated.
Julius Caesar did not have to work nearly so hard.
He never ever became emperor.
