 About Caesar 關于愷撒
     Gaius Julius Caesar was a Roman general and statesman. He played a critical role in the gradual transformation of the Roman Republic into the Roman Empire.
     In 60 BC, Caesar entered into a political alliance with Crassus and Pompey that was to dominate Roman politics for several years. Their attempts to amass power through populist tactics were opposed within the Roman Senate by the conservative elite, among them Cato the Younger with the frequent support of Cicero. Caesar's conquest of Gaul extended Rome's territory to the North Sea, and in 55 BC he conducted the first Roman invasion of Britain. These achievements granted him unmatched military power and threatened to eclipse Pompey's standing. The balance of power was further upset by the death of Crassus in 53 BC. Political realignments in Rome finally led to a standoff between Caesar and Pompey, the latter having taken up the cause of the Senate. Ordered by the senate to stand trial in Rome for various charges, Caesar marched from Gaul to Italy with his legions, crossing the Rubicon in 49 BC. This sparked a civil war from which he emerged as the unrivaled leader of the Roman world.
     After assuming control of government, he began extensive reforms of Roman society and government. He centralized the bureaucracy of the Republic and was eventually proclaimed "dictator in perpetuity". A group of senators, led by Marcus Junius Brutus, assassinated the dictator on the Ides of March (15 March) 44 BC, hoping to restore the constitutional government of the Republic. However, the result was a series of civil wars, which ultimately led to the establishment of the permanent Roman Empire by Caesar's adopted heir Octavius (later known as Augustus).
     愷撒大帝是羅馬共和國末期杰出的軍事統(tǒng)帥、政治家。他公元前60年與龐培、克拉蘇秘密結成前三巨頭同盟,隨后出任高盧總督,花了八年時間征服了高盧全境(大約是現(xiàn)在的法國),還襲擊了日耳曼和不列顛。公元前49年,他率軍占領羅馬,打敗龐培,集大權于一身,實行獨裁統(tǒng)治并制定了《儒略歷》。
     愷撒是羅馬帝國的奠基者,故被一些歷史學家視為羅馬帝國的無冕之皇,有愷撒大帝之稱。甚至有歷史學家將其視為羅馬帝國的第一位皇帝,以其就任終身獨裁官的日子為羅馬帝國的誕生日。影響所及,有羅馬君主以其名字"愷撒"作為皇帝稱號﹔其后之德意志帝國及俄羅斯帝國君主亦以"愷撒"作為皇帝稱號。
