>
> Third Emperor of Rome and ruler of one of the most
> powerful empires of all time, your common name means
> "little boots". Although you only reigned for four
> years, brief even by Roman standards, you still
> managed to garner a reputation as a cruel, extravagant
> and downright insane despot. Your father died in
> suspicious circumstances, you were not the intended
> heir, and one of your first acts as Emperor was to
> force the suicide of your father-in-law. Your sister
> Drusilla died that same year; faced with allegations
> that your relationship with her had been incestuous,
> you responded, bafflingly, by declaring her a god.
>
> You revived a number of unpopular traditions,
> including auctions of properties left over from public
> shows. When a senator fell asleep at one such auction,
> you took each of his nods as bids, selling him 13
> gladiators for a vast sum. You attempted to have your
> horse, Incitatus, made into a consul and hence one of
> the most powerful figures in Rome. It was granted a
> marble stable with jewels and a staff of servants. At
> one point you forced your comrade Macro to kill
> himself - in much the same vein as your father-in-law
> - accusing him of being his wife's pimp. You, of
> course, were having an affair with said wife at the
> time.
>
> Things went from bad to worse. When supplies of
> condemned men ran short in the circus, you had
> innocent spectators dragged into the arena with the
> lions to fill their place. You claimed mastery of the
> sea by walking across a three-mile bridge of boats in
> the Bay of Naples; kissed the necks of your lovers,
> whispering sweet nothings like "This lovely neck will
> be chopped as soon as I say so,"; dallied with your
> sister's lover and made her pull her unborn child out
> of her womb prematurely. Towards the end of your
> reign, you had a golden statue of yourself made and
> dressed each day in the same clothes you yourself
> wore. When you eventually died, the terrified people
> of Rome refused to believe that such a cruel reign
> could ever end, and believed you to be alive for years
> afterwards.
