Julius Caesar and Marcus Brutus

  • Julius Caesar was smart and strong military generel and leader.
  • Knew what the people wanted to hear and would put himself out there. (one of my favorite sayings is, you got to risk it to get the biscuit)
  • Made friends with powerful, rich and upper class people.
  • Had good intentions to do good things for Rome and the people.
  • Loved the city of Rome so much and he was a perfect fit for the leader of Rome. 
  • Wanted more and more power. He got greedy
  • Decided to go to the capital becuase he was promised the crown instead of staying home like his wife told him
  • Became a little cocky. thought everyone liked him and nothing bad will happen


  • Marcus Brutus wanted to help Rome and he did not want a dictator like Julius Caesar ruling it.
  • Brutus was very social and had many friends, like Julius Caesar, bot rich and powerful, all of which he had good relationships with. 
  • Brutus was not afraid to stand up or speak out for the good of Rome and it's citizens if something was wrong or needed to be done. 
  • Brutus was willing to work hard to make his way up to being leader because he wanted to make new changes for the better of Rome.
  • Brutus was a nobleman who was respected and was always thinking about others instead of himself, a very heroic trait.
  •  
  • Didn't think of the possible outcomes of his plan.
  • Valued Rome more than his friendships
  •  Devotion to the conspiracy caused him to lose his wife
  • Blind to other peoples motives.
