<p></p> <p><b>New page</b></p><div>Deaths of Julio-Claudian Emperors<br /> <br /> Omens figured big in the deaths. And deification was a big part of the aftermath.<br /> <br /> ==Julius Caesar==<br /> First emperor, breaking up the breaking democracy<br /> <br /> Assassinated<br /> *Seutonius is the source<br /> <br /> ===Digression===<br /> *Bush was speaking a few years ago and a bird shat on him<br /> **&quot;Birds give thheir opion on Bush&quot;<br /> *Historically an auspicious sign from the Gods. Sneezing too. <br /> **Because it can't be controlled<br /> <br /> ===Back to assassination===<br /> *Ideal way to die<br /> **in Battle<br /> **queitly after long reign<br /> <br /> *The way he died: dignified<br /> **They all crowded around him<br /> <br /> ==Augustus Caesar==<br /> ===Politics===<br /> *He was v. popular with the people<br /> *probably died old<br /> <br /> ==Death==<br /> *Foreseen by a bird landing on a letter 'A'<br /> *Lightning struck it and prophets gave him 100 days<br /> *Basically everything he said after that was seen in retrospect as prophetic of the specific circumstances of his death.<br /> <br /> <br /> ==Tiberius==<br /> *way bad. Lots of controlled starvation and manipulation of markets<br /> *Everyone wanted him dead, no one did it. He lived until 80<br /> *Terrified of Rome, stayed on the coast, convinced that it would be his death.<br /> <br /> ===Dying===<br /> *Twisted his side, played healthy by overdoing it.<br /> **&quot;Basically, this guy refused to die&quot;<br /> *Many think he was given a slow wasting poison, possibly by Caligula<br /> *Others think old age.<br /> *Took of ring of power, put it back on, and died.<br /> <br /> ==Caligula (Gaius)==<br /> *After Tiberius, everyone wspsyched<br /> *He was horrible, dumb and decadent<br /> *Assassinated:<br /> **People rushed in with knives<br /> **He died cowardlyly<br /> <br /> ==Claudius==<br /> *Has his first wife killed<br /> *Second, Agrippana, poisoned him with mushrooms to get Nero on the throne<br /> <br /> ==Nero==<br /> *End of Julio Claudian dynasty<br /> *Worst death of all, no honor at all.<br /> *Dancing while rome burned didn't go too well<br /> *Instead of honorably killing himself, fled and hid in a closet<br /> **Had to be assisted in stabbing himself to death.<br /> <br /> ==Others==<br /> *Lots of less dramatic deaths, small pox etc,</div>
