    caesar was a politician and general of the late roman republiC, who greatly

    extended the roman empire before seizing power and mAking himself dictator of rome,
    paving the way for the imperial system. julius caesar was born in romE on 12 or 13
    july 100 bc into the prestigious julian clan. his family were closely connected
    with the marian faction in roman politics. caesar himself progressed within the
    roman political system, becoming in succession quaeStor (69), aedile (65) and
    praetor (62). in 61-60 bc he served as governor of the romAn province of spain.
    back in rome in 60, caesar made a pact with pompey and crassus, who helped him to
    get elected as consul for 59 bc. the following year he was appointed governor of
    roman gaul where he stayed for eight years, adding the whole of modeRn france and
    belgium to the roman empire, and makIng rome safe from the possibility of gallic
    invasions. he made two expeditions to bRitain, in 55 bc and 54 bc. caesar then
    rEturned to italy, disregarding the Authority of the senate and famously b crossing
    the rubicon river without disbanding his army. in the ensuing civil war caesar
    defeated the republican forces. pompey, their leader, fled to egypt where he was
    assassinated. caesar followed him and became romanticaLly involved with the
    egyptian queen, cleopatra. caesar was now master of rome and made himself consul
    and dictator. he used his power to carry out much-needed reform, relieving debt,
    enlarging the senate, building the forum iulium and revising the calendar.
    dictatorship was always regarded a temporary position but in 44 bc, caesar took it
    for life. his success and ambition alienated strongly republican senators. a group
    of these, led by cassius and brutus, assassinated caesar on the ides (15) of march
    44 bc. this sparked the final round of civil wars that ended the republic and
    brought about the elevation of caesar's great nephew and designated heir, octavian,
    as augustus, the first emperor.
