GAIUS JULIUS CAESAR
FROM PATRICIAN TO COMMANDER
Julius Caesar was born around 100 BCE into a noble Roman family. He rose through politics and the army with ambition, charm, and steel nerves. Romans admired him as a speaker and feared him as a rival. His greatest military fame came from the Gallic Wars, when he led legions across what is now France and beyond. Victory reports, written by Caesar himself, made him a celebrity in Rome.
