Caesar is an interesting person of character during the Roman era between 100 BC – 44 BC. Much like Sun Tzu, this general was also a critical statesman during the events leading to the rise of the Roman Empire (Taking over a large part of the world). He was not a bad person although he wasn’t a saint either. Regardless, for his time period/history, there is some value in his legacy worth researching for yourself.

Today he can associate with dictatorship and ridiculed in various comedy. Maybe the winners rewrite the past and he was just a good guy getting the difficult stuff done? My Roman history is a bit less than desired compared to others; knowing more I could develop an option distinction. For now, I can identify quality individual/leader elements, his integral story seems intriguing from paraphrased references I have heard or come across before.
