I've been trying to redpill myself on the Julio-Claudians, /his/, and this is what I've concluded thus far...
>Augustus
A hardworking guy that lucked out and ultimately won it all, but gets too much credit for bringing peace when he was only delaying the inevitable confrontation that would end the principate.
>Tiberius
Stannis-tier autism, probably wanted to bring the Republic back as Sulla did but was so bad at interactign with people and found himself dealing with such a spineless bunch of senators that he ultimately tapped out of the game and left them to their own devices.
>Caligula
A traumatized kid who wanted to live up to his papa and found himself fucked over by everyone from his uncle to his allies and, ultimately, his own family. Found himself so disgusted by the treatment he received that he ended up treating everyone with a high-handed cynicism that made him despised beyond measure.
>Cladius
An absolute cuck that never stood up for himself, and though he'd somehow end up living the high life if he treated the Senate better, only to find himself removed like the beta that he was.
>Nero
A visionary and quite possibly the greatest emperor of all time. Under his guidance, Rome could've become the unparalleled zenith of civilization. Like Caligula, everyone tried to undermine him, especially the bitch mother that was jealous of his genius and his cock. Quite possibly the most unjustly treated and misunderstood person in all of history.
