The military would win easily.\n\nOrganization and the discipline to stand your ground while being attacked are extremely important in combat.\n\nWhile on his campaign in Gaul, Julius Caesar had built earthworks around a castle and was laying seige to it.  His 30,000 legionaires were attacked by 250,000 peasants.  Caesars response was to throw up earthworks outside the original ones, continue the seige, and fight off the new attackers.\n\nCaesar won because his 30,000 men were an army and the 250,000 peasants did not have organization and discipline.

60 of them! This is what I've found from the site below :"Sixty members of the Senate concluded that the only resolution to the problem was to assassinate Caesar." Location- 3rd paragraph

PA: What were Caesar’s policies? \n\nMP: Caesar is described by all of these historians as driven by ambition and love for power. But he was born of a family that had a reformist genealogy. His father-in-law Cinna was a reformist. His uncle by marriage, the great Marius, was another reformer. When the conservative dictatorship took over in 80 BC, Sulla offered him a place in his government which would have catapulted him up to the top at a young age. Instead, he ran the risk of turning down Sulla, knowing that it meant the end of his patrimony. He lost his wife’s dowry. He almost lost his life. So he already had views that were not just for opportunism and power, he had views about which side he was going to be on in the great class divide. \n\nLater on when he did acquire power, he did things like land redistribution, rent cancellation – he cancelled all rents for low and middle income dwellings for a year. Rents were atrociously high. Families were doubled and tripled up in these big tenement houses in Rome. Debt easement: he must have cancelled about 25 percent of the debt. No interest payments were to be paid that exceeded the amount of the original debt; that excess amount was cancelled. He imposed luxury taxes on the rich. He passed requirements that one-third of the workforce on the plantations had to be free labor, rather than slave labor. In other words, he started limiting slave labor and increased the opportunities for free labor. He started work projects for jobs, what we would call "jobs programs" today. These things are what made the Senate aristocrats hate him. Not his ambition. Not his supposed arrogance. In fact, he wasn’t arrogant. He reached out to these senators. He tried to get them to come in on his side. And as for his ambition and power, they all understood and lived by ambition and power. It was their common currency. It was not Caesar’s power they disliked, it was the way he was using it.

Do your own homework. If you had a question about one quote where I could believe that you read the play but forgot the context of a single line, I would help you. As it is, you need to do your own work. Them's the rules. \n\nFurther, your questions should read: Can I get what these quotes mean and WHO is speaking to WHOM? \n\nClearly, English is not your favorite subject. But suck it up. You deserve no credit for work you ask others to do for you.

"...since ancient times, the Rubicon River had marked the northernmost boundary of Rome proper. Across the boundary a Roman general could not go while at the head of his army. For such a man to lead his troops in battle gear into the heart of Rome was against one of the oldest laws on the Roman law books. It was treason."\n\nThus, Caesar was going south.

Rome, please begin your day with a well balanced breakfast to include an ample portion of fruits and grains. After your morning routines are finished, enjoy a brisk walk around the block.

Begin to collect an archive of various music genres that you can resolve one day to enjoy after you get the rest of your chores done.\nRome, if after following my advice, simply take two aspirin and forget we ever had this little discussion.\nThank you, Rome. Have a great day!\n-dylan

Marcus Brutus and Cassius are the two most prominent.  Their co-conspirators were supporters of the Optimates, a political faction that opposed Caesar's populism in favor of an expansion senatorial power.

Although it would be useful to know whether this is help in History or Literature, the traditional view is that Caesar was a man of particular skills in war, in love and in politics. He expanded the territory of the Roman Republic substantially, including conquering Gaul (pretty much equivalent to modern-day France). He advanced on power in a way that was almost expected of a man of his social standing, taking high office several times. The question is whether he envisaged himself becoming Dictator for Life at any point substantially before he became it. The classic point at which he is deemed to have decided his fate was when he crossed the Rubicon river, and essentially invaded his own city of Rome. This is understandably pegged as a key event in the transformation of a man who sought high office into the man who sought Dictatorship for Life.\n\nMy own view, based on essential first principles, is that any man who would have defined a role for himself in his own mind of Dictator for Life substantially before it became an absolute necessity to become one, would have been able easily to outwit and put down the assassination attempt that so rapidly overtook him.\n\nBefore crossing the Rubicon, he was in Gaul, having - and this is crucial - used most of the territory's wealth NOT to swell the Senate's coffers, but to pay off his own debts and establish his own financial independence. As he anticipated it would, this caused severe consternation among the Senate and particularly among his peers, who felt this was taking his power too far. So, being a bold, acquisitive 'rising star', what was he left to? Accept the potential punishment of the Senate, that could see him fall, and even be instructed to commit suicide? Or make another bold move, and push forward into territory that hadn't been seen in some time? Becoming Dictator would theoretically put him beyond that kind of censure, and having achieved it, enraging more nobles in the process, how do you step down and keep you rlife and fortunes intact? Give up the protection of the Dictatorship and you're as good as dead. So I believe he got there because he had the imagination and the  military success to establish himself, and clung on simply because he had no other realistic choice.

1) He succeeded Augustus Caesar\n2) He refused the title of Augustus on several occasions.\n3) Supposedly he hated Germanicus, a relative who was next in line for the imperial throne.\n4) During his reign, a war was conducted against the Germans that quelled the area, more or less, until the rise of the Alamanni.\n5) Tiberius was alive during the time of Christ and the Bible actually refers to him on numerous occasions.\n6) He personally saw the defeat of Arminius, the leader of the Cherusci Alliance, in Teutoburg Wald in 9 C.E.\n7) He married Vipsania Agrippina but divorced her due to the wishes of Augustus.\n8) He lived from November 16, 42 B.C.E. to March 16, C.E. 37\n9) After his death he was deified.\n10) He never clearly chose a successor.\n\nOne of these facts is 100% B.S. It is up to you to figure out which one. All the rest were taken from Tacitus' "Annals of Imperial Rome"

July 12, 100 BC – March 15, 44 BC\n\nHe was a Roman military and political leader. He played an important part in the transformation of the Roman Republic into the Roman Empire. His conquest of Gaul extended the Roman world all the way to the Atlantic Ocean, with the first Roman invasion of Britannia. He is widely considered to be one of the greatest military geniuses of all time, as well as a brilliant politician and one of the ancient world's strongest leaders. In 42 BC, two years after his death, the Roman Senate officially proclaimed him as one of the Roman deities.\n\nCaesar fought in a civil war which left him undisputed master of the Roman world, and began extensive reforms of Roman society and government. He was proclaimed dictator for life, and he heavily centralized the government of the Republic. Caesar's friend Marcus Brutus conspired with others to assassinate him, to restore the Republic and because they were afraid that Julius might try to make himself a king. This dramatic assassination took place on the Ides of March (March 15th) in 44 BC.

Julius Caesar thinks that the gods are protecting him and that he is above all other people.  He does not listen to the warning from his wife and friends.
