After his victories, Julius Caesar goes to Rome with an army: a civil war erupts

• Caesar wins and becomes a dictator: an absolute ruler (who does not need approval of the senate)
• He is killed in 44 B.C. by 23 stabs of daggers

Roman Empire

In 27 B.C. Augustus, the adopted son of Caesar, manages to grab power after a new civil war: he is now the emperor
