How Did Julius Caesar Break His Rule

In Julius Caesar the rulers break and bend the rules one after another. I don't think the rulers should be able to break there rules and then tell us not to even if it was for the good of the country. “As a rule, men worry more about what they can't see than about what they can” (Caesar). This quote really gets to the reader because all of the other rulers assumed that Julius Caesar was going to change their country into something that wasn’t good for the people. They were so worries about how they thought he was going to ruin their government that they didn’t look at the positive sides to Julius being a ruler. We have been learning about Julius Caesar in class for weeks and by the time you get done reading this essay you might agree with me. After you get done reading this you will gain more knowledge about giving one man so much power for one country can cause so much trouble. Julius Caesar and Brutus did not agree on the future government of Rome so Brutus ultimately killed Caesar. I disagree, Julius Caesar was a powerful man that was seen as a threat, brutus didn’t agree with having Rome as a dictatorship, and in result Brutus kills Caesar in fear of Rome falling apart and only to become a
dictatorship instead of a republic. Julius Caesar was a powerful man that was seen as a threat after defeating Pompey. Brutus planned to kill him because of the fact that he didn't want the government to change from a republic and have only one leader. Julius Caesar was in charge of Rome’s military and their defenses. People were scared that he was going to make Rome a target. They were also scared of Rome becoming a dictatorship. Caesar ended up making an alliance with Pompey and Crassus which enhanced his political power. Then Caesar made himself “dictator for life” and appointed his own senators. This also caused a lot of problems because the people and leaders of Rome didn’t want Rome’s government to change. Another important figure that disagreed with Caesar was Brutus.
Brutus did not agree with having Rome as dictatorship. He wanted to keep Rome as a republic because he thought that Rome should have more than one ruler. He felt as if having more than one ruler gave room for improvment. He also felt that it gave more stability in the people, and Rome’s government. Brutus’ ancestors established the republic so of course he’s going to believe in that since his ancestors started it or founded it. Brutus’ love to the republic was greater than his love for Caesar and you can see this when Brutus says “not that I loved Caesar less, but that I loved Rome more” (Brutus). In the end Brutus believed that it was best that Caesar disappeared and never be able to decide for
Rome. Brutus ends up killing Caesar in fear of Rome falling apart and becoming a dictatorship instead of a republic. Brutus was scared that once Caesar got the crown that he would change the way he behaves and his perspective on things. Brutus and Caesar were friends but Brutus said its not that he doesn't love Caesar but he loved Rome more. Cassius was also persuading Brutus into believing that Caesar had to much power and didn’t need anymore. Conspirators fueled Brutus’ fears of Caesar ending the republic and Brutus made this decision. I disagree, Julius Caesar was a powerful man that was seen as a threat, brutus didn’t agree with having Rome as a dictatorship, and in result Brutus kills Caesar in fear of Rome falling apart and only to become a dictatorship instead of a republic. This is a main event in history has effected Rome in all the years to follow. Without this happening Rome would probably be totally different. Now that you have read this essay you have learned about having so much power that it can turn you against your friends. “I have lived long enough to satisfy both nature and glory” (Julius Caesar).
