The heart is what some determine to be the most important organ in our bodies and one of the biggest contributors. It is one of the major organs that if we did not have, it would not be possible for us to live. The heart is about the size of a fist and is broken down into four chambers, the aorta, superior vena cava, pulmonary artery, and the coronary artery. The four chambers include the right and left atrium and the right and left ventricle. The heart is responsible for supplying oxygen and blood to the entire body. Blood passes through these four chambers and then exits and pumps into the rest of the body. The heart also has three layers of walls…

The Roman government was in ruin when Julius Caesar came to power in 49 BC. Rome was too large to control itself, and the only seat with effective power was the dictator. Caesar was the first emperor of Rome, and the Senate hated that he called himself king. The members of senate deemed him a tyrant, as seen in Plutarch: “Therefore the plots which had previously been formed separately, often by groups of two or three, were united in a general conspiracy, since even the populace no longer were pleased with present conditions, but both secretly and openly rebelled at his tyranny and cried out for defenders of their liberty.” (Plutarch LXXX) The Senate also wanted Caesar out of power because each of them wanted to become the dictator themselves, which would have resulted in further conflict and a bloodier war than the final Roman war.…

A dictionary definition of a leader is a guiding hand in a movement or group. My definition of a leader is someone who stands out amongst the rest and steps up to the task and helps the “followers” advance and strive to become a leader as well. The only way a leader can be effective is by leading by example. A prime example of this is Malala Yousafzai. She was shot in the face for trying to go to school. If she hadn’t gone to school she wouldn’t have been shot, but she also wouldn’t have a Nobel Peace prize. She is now using her story to speak for access to education for everyone. A leader is someone who leads by example and uses their skills to help others succeed.…

Also, Caesar reformed the Roman calendar and greatly increased the size of the Roman Senate (Biography.com Editors 14). However, everything Caesar did was only to increase his influence with the people of Rome so that he could become more powerful. For instance, the only reason Caesar expanded the Roman Senate, was so that he could fill it with allies who would later advocate for him.

Julius’ full name and official title was “General Gaius Julius Caesar” and remained so throughout his entire life (“Julius”). When Julius Caesar was born is not agreed upon between most historians. But the closest approximation is around 100 B.C.E. Julius Caesar’s family was apart of the Roman aristocracy. He died around 44 B.C.E. He was murdered by a group of “60 influential Romans” and was stabbed “23 times” with a dagger when he entered a “senate chamber” (Knight). His assassination was planned by his “friends” “Brutus and Cassius” and the famous line “Et tu? Brutus” comes from his death…
