Julius was a statesman for Rome and a general and an author. He played an important role in the event that led to the demise of the Roman Republic. and the starting of Roman Empire.

While it's been long disputed , it's estimated that Julius Caesar was born on the 13th of July or the 12th of July. Julius’s dad died when he was only 16 and only had his mom after that. The Rome of Caesar's youth was unstable an element of disorder ruled the republic. Julius had a nephew of another famous Roman general, Marius. After the death of Marius and the rise of Sulla, Julius’s life was in jeopardy. In the early 60’s B.C he launched his own successful political and military career. He campaigned successfully for the consulship and struck a deal with two of Rome’s leading figures. All together they controlled rome until the 50 B.C, until Caesar and Pompey (one of Rome’s figure) after Crassus’s death, went to war against one another in 49 B.C.

Alexander the Great, Hero or Villain? Alexander the Great was a major world conquerer, who controlled over 22 million square miles of land by the end of his journey. He was born in Macedonia as Philip II’s son in 356 BC and became king of Macedonia when he turned 20, after his fathers death. When he was king first he ended the Theban revolt and enslaved all the people to set an example for what would happen if you rebelled against Alexander. Then he set out to conquer the rest of the world until his death in 323 BC.
Julius Caesar left an everlasting impact on the world during his short time on earth. Julius Caesar started his reign in Spain when he became governor in 61 BCE, then only one year later he created the first triumvirate with his allies Crassus, and Pompey. As Julius Caesar continued his road to success, he became consul in 59 BCE. After becoming Consul for one year he spread his power to Gaul and became governor there in 58 BCE serving two four year terms. For the eight years Caesar expanded his power by winning every single battle he fought.
Life in Rome during the time of Julius Caesar, who ruled from 49 BC to 44 BC, was marked by political upheaval, military expansion, and cultural changes. Caesar's reign was a pivotal time in Roman history, and the events of his life had a lasting impact on the Empire. Politically, the Roman Republic was in turmoil, with frequent power struggles and uprisings. Caesar's rise to power was met with opposition from the Senate, and his declaration of himself as dictator was seen as a threat to the traditional political system.

First of all, Julius Caesar was an unbelievable military leader and emperor.
He then set off and conquered Egypt, the Persian Empire, and won a hard battle against India before his troops forced him to return home. Alexander then died at the age of 32. Most people see Alexander as Great because he conquered a lot of land, built a massive empire, and was a military genius, but Alexander was not so great. Alexander the Great did not deserve his title as Great because he gained his power by fear, killed innocent
Alexander the Great was one of the most significant figures of its time. He was able not only to expand Greek culture through his empire, but also he overpowered the great Persian Empire. Even though Alexander lived a short life, he made an impact in history that would endure forever. I choose this figure because of his incredible history, intelligence, and military strategy that sets him apart of all other conquerors. Alexander was born in Macedonia, son of Philip II, king of Macedonia.
