We continued to watch the video and finished it.
- Caligula became Emperor
- He goes to the North sea with a huge army
- Right before they invade he makes him stop and collect seashells
- He may have been ill
- He was supposed to kill an animal but he kills a high priest instead
- He was a disaster
- Main religion was belief of Greek gods but there were some other religions like Jewish
- Augustus was good, fair, had religious tolerance
- Caligula didn't have religion tolerance
- He had a statue made of himself as a Greek god and put in the Jews most holiest place
- Caligula was later murdered
- He allowed people to bully Jews
- Many people freed slaves (called freed men)
- Some freed men became wealthy
- Claudius became heir of Caligula
- His weak spot was his wife
- She was only interested in money
- She had affairs
- She was later killed
- He was good at the beginning but he started to lose his control
- All heirs after Augustus were weird
After the video we looked up Caligula and Claudius. I only got Claudius.
Here are the notes about him:- First emperor to be born outside Italy.
- Had a limp and slight deafness.
- His family ostracized him and excluded him from public office.
- Died when he was 54.
- Grand-nephew took over
