Julius Caesar is a roman dictator, a
successful dictator yet was killed by his own members. What he did to the
country, by killing pirates is for their own country sakes. Yes it true that he
is a sadistic men, killing people with no mercy, but you must look at a bright
side, it is all for the Roman Empire. He did many bad things, to others people,
not to roman but did good things to the roman. If you see it in a way, if Caesar
does not killed those pirates, they will harm the people of roman. And for the
true story, it was the ports that first capture Caesar at the first place.
Thus, an eye for an eye they say. Then he attack Gaul, and for what reason? So,
that Gaul won't attack them first. For Caesar, it was a golden opportunity to impress
the senate and People's Assembly. Besides, there were reports about
Germans that were attacking the Aedui, a Gallic tribe in the valley
of the Saone that was allied to Rome. A victory over the Germans would place
him on the same rank as his uncle Marius.
He spent the winter in Cisalpine
Gaul, having an eye on the city of Rome and giving instructions to Piso. And he
wrote the first part of his Commentary on the war in Gaul, which
had two purposes: he could boast about his successes, and he could explain why
he had to attack the rest of Gaul. It was successful: no Roman ever asked if it
was really necessary to conquer these vast territories.
