Leadership and Dido
Dido a Better Leader
Caesar as a leader was a very harsh and a very unmanly man. Caesar was a man who made them fight for his own wars. He had many men battle for. Caesar is also a very non believer. Caesar was part of a very bloody war. He went into battle with his men who he sent their first and they fought in a blood bath. Caesar said he had to do this because there was no other route when really there was. Caesar was not a good man because with this that he did it was bloody and it was not a very good battle for him because many live where lost. This makes me believe that Caesar is a poor leader not caring about his men or caring about the fact if he win or loses. Caesar also didn't care about the fact of the land. If he messed it up so be it. Caesar a poor leader in my eyes.
Dido I'm my part was the better leader of the two men. Dido cared about his men he lead them across the ground and didn't get many killed him didn't let many people die. Dido was a good man. Dido was a strong leader leading his men across the land not letting many men die but most importantly he did it on good terms and did it with only good intent. Dido was an honest individual who would protect his men in anyway. Dido would show that his men and he will survive no matter what and they will also us Dido’s leadership to propel to the top.
Both Dido and Caesar are world renowned leaders but both had opposite views. Caesar was a bad leader in my eyes who made his men goes through a blood bath for him. Where Dido went and protected his men and respects his people for the better of them not just for himself. Dido is a better and more powerful leader who protects his people and also gets his job done. Both where great leaders but Dido was more about his people in my eyes giving him the edge.

    Cicero, Roman Senator and Philosopher, set up specific qualities of an ideal Roman ruler. A clear role in what it takes to effectively lead. A leader must first lead a dignified life for them to lead a successful empire. Leaders must demonstrate a work ethic and ability to gain respect. With that respect, leaders must love and care for their subordinates to show their compassionate towards the Roman people. Leaders must then demonstrate ethics to provide plans that must be followed in order to bring success to their empire. Politically, Cicero’s ideals reflected on both Marcus Aurelius and Commodus in various distinct ways. Marcus Aurelius and Commodus were men that ruled the empire of Rome and their governance had a profound impact in the Roman history. However while Marcus Aurelius was a grown just, benevolent man who fought for the power of Rome and successfully won the battle, Commodus was young, ignorant, cruel ruler, who demanded respect soon after he took position as emperor, and seriously weakened Roman Empire.…

    There is a large amount of differences between the play interpretation of Julius Caesar and what really happened. For instance, Brutus in the play was extremely different than real life Brutus. In the play, he was best friends with Caesar-well, until he killed him. However, in real life, Brutus hated Caesar. He was never supportive of Caesar, and truthfully never loved him.(Musaj and Prezi Inc.) In Julius Caesar by William Shakespeare, he uses Brutus’s strong love of Rome, his honor, and his willing to do anything for the good of Rome to show that Brutus is the tragic hero.…

    In the time of the ruling of Julius Caesar, all of the Romans loved most of Caesar's qualities. He was a good and popular leader and did a lot for the people. But some Romans had a problem with Caesar and plotted to kill him. These people were Brutus and Cassius. This started a civil war between the Romans. This war may have been prevented if Brutus and Cassius had done things a little differently. Cassius would have made a better leader rather than Brutus. Cassius also had more of a passion to kill Caesar. Brutus did not have the morals of a killer like Caesar did.…

    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…

    Augustus Caesar was a highly respected ruler of the Roman Empire. Augustus rose to his power after his uncle, Julius Caesar, was killed. He was forced to clean up the mess Julius had left after his assassination. The Roman Republic was shattered after all the fighting that took place to decipher the future leader of Rome. The problems that occurred were not from outside threats, it was inside the city where the disruption began and tore the city apart. Augustus Caesar believed that only a strong monarchy could bring the city back up on its feet. He ruled with republican views because he knew the ruling class would support him, and that was what he needed. Later on once he became a legitimate ruler of Rome he took the name princeps, which meant first citizen, rather than dictator or king. This made him seem as if he was not as powerful and overbearing as past rulers of the Roman Empire. Augustus Caesar had a very positive historical legacy. He did many things for the public to keep them safe and also helped the impoverished people while rewarding those who were successful. Caesar improved every aspect of Rome from the law, to the people, to taxes. He was an all-around gratuitous ruler. Augustus Caesar was a strong ruler from the beginning of his reign to the end, his techniques for ruling were highly successful, and he left behind a very positive legacy.…

    Today, rulers of other countries still bear the title Caesar. This name has achieved an unprecedented amount of respect. Julius Caesar is one of Rome's most famous leaders, and he has come to deserve that fame. Julius has many of the discrete characteristics of a leader. He was egotistic (some may say an egomaniac), he had a controlling power, he was intelligent, and he was ambitious. Although his reign did not prove as beneficial to Rome as it did for him, he is still considered a great leader.…

    Julius Caesar loved the people as indicated by his humility, his denial of the crown and by putting his own desires behind those of the people. After he died he left the people land and money. If he was trying to get ahead for himself only, then he certainly wouldn't have been saving money and land to give to the people. President Kennedy, like Julius Caesar, gave to the people and not to himself. Julius Caesar was assassinated out of greed and envy by Brutus and Cassius, who though they seemed honorable, were in fact out to get their own ways and desires without any concern for anyone else.…
