Such a move was unpopular, and hence, in order to implement it, Caesar planned for a protest and employed the accompanying melee to implement his wishes. Gaul accorded Julius some power base to conscript troops as well as carry out military drives that were meant to build his name as well as earn himself a fortune Berlin Employing his military skills further during his course of living would have meant a more revamped military energy for his troop hence greater levels of safety for his country from external attacks.
For instance, Julius Caesar employed his skills in military tactics as well as the discipline and military training of the Roman army to subdue and conquer the other part of Gaul all the way to the Rhine River. This expanded the Roman Empire into the North Sea. During 55 BC, Caesar carried out the initial roman attack of Britain as well. Such accomplishments granted Caesar unrivaled military, threatening to obscure the power wielded by Pompey.
The future of his military success required such skills, which were well-endowed in his capacity. With his ideal capacity of statesmanship and writing he could have hallmarked the history of his leadership yet to greater heights by speaking for his people and writing important and persuading commentaries on his leadership.
Caesar was among the most famous generals and statesmen history has ever known. His abilities as a speaker were exceptional. Caesar was a talented writer as well. His character as a ruthless leader was perhaps the most admissible one that would have waged his nation on bounds of political and resource equality as well as fighting for the rights of the weak. For example, when fighting with overseas foes, Julius Caesar exhibited ruthlessness, i.
This was a good example of what he could have done for his people even in the future. With his insight for his country, he could have brought widely expanded horizons of changes through growth and development of his country. For instance, Julius Caesar diverted his concentration back home. The triumvirate was under extreme pressure.
Pompey became increasingly envious of the success of Caesar whereas Pompey was still hated by Crassus. Following the death of Crassus at war, Caesar and Pompey drifted apart, finally finding themselves on opposite sides.
This was facilitated by political reorganizations within Rome because Pompey had sided with the Senate. However, Caesar was by this time very successful. On the other hand, Caesar had numerous foes, and hence, his life and his position were threatened. However, his love for Rome ignited him with the reservation of working even harder toward its success. Julius recorded some initial victories; in 46 BC, he was Rome's dictator for 10 years, an unmatched leader in the Roman world. Caeser was accorded imperium over the empire.
He was therefore essentially above the constitution and the law. After one year spent in getting rid of his foes, Caesar went back home. Bighearted in victory, Caesar exhibited kindness toward his beaten foes, according all of them amnesties and also inviting a number of them to his government. He started extensive transformations in the Roman society. Caesar greatly decentralized the red tape of the nation and was therefore declared dictator in perpetuity.

While he emerged the victor, his time as dictator perpetuo, dictator for life, was brief.
A conspiracy formed to overthrow Caesar and restore the power of the republic. Read more about the death of Julius Caesar. But if Caesar acted on the warnings or had not insisted on being seen without bodyguards, he may have discovered the conspiracy before it took place. He had already implemented a number of populist reforms — including land redistribution from the elite to the poor and soldiers, and increased citizen enfranchisement — and was likely to have continued a reorganisation of the republic.
He had arranged to depart just a few days after the Ides of March, first for Greece to meet the huge force already in training. With an estimated 16 legions and cavalry, Caesar had reason to be confident of pacifying Dacia, led by King Burebista, and annexing the land like he did in Gaul, but Strauss stresses it would have been far from an easy victory.
