Violent Rise and Violent Fall
« on: November 29, 2008, 11:53:05 PM »
Ever wonder how political leaders such as the Emperors of Rome utilized violent means to claim the Caesarian Crown?

Men such as Caligula, Nero, Commodus, Diocletian and Nerva used rather conniving methods to rid their competition. And when in power, ruled as if they were a Living Physical God. Spent frivorously the tax money of the citizenry, abused the military and the personal guard. Till they themselves, the self acclaimed God-Emperor, fell victim to their own doctrines. The doctrine of Rule by Force and Power.

Many of such Emperors such as Caligula, Commodus and Nero were murdered by their own trusted protectors, the Praetorian Guard, or by their own lovers.

Many of whom, such as Caligula, was murdered while sitting on the Imperial Throne. Vested in the Imperial Robe.


Not just in Rome, but in many other kingdoms and states throughout history.

Agree or disagree?

An Example of Corrupt Power.




The picture is of the aged Emperor Tiberius Augustus, a great politician and Father-figure of the Roman Empire. The direct heir of Caesar Augustus. In this picture, the aged Tiberius, wearing the Imperial Robe, being murdered and killed by his own Nephew, Caligula.

Caligula, would share his own Uncle's fate. As he murdered his uncle, he, too, would be silenced by his own Praetorian Guard.

To comment on the picture above,

It is rather astonishing to see something like this, which is rather historically accurate. The Emperor Tiberius Augustus, who orated greatly as his uncle before him, Augustus. Tiberius, who worked tirelessly to increase the roads of Rome, increasing the ports, furthering the borders of the Empire, beautified the cities. Thousands upon Thousands of Rome's sons were sent abroad, in the name of Tiberius to silence dissidents, and to conquer the barbarians.

In his life, Tiberius was honored with Divine Praises, as it was common to worship the spirit of the Emperor of Rome.

Yet, despite his adjusted divinity and his power, as Lord of Life in his Roman Empire, could not even save his own life from his own nephew, Caligula.

Isn't it ironic? If you ponder such iniquity. A man who the masses of Rome worshiped as the Living Divine, would be silenced by his own kin? The man whose word, if ushered, could annihilate an entire people and kingdom by his Armies, was murdered in his own Imperial Palace? Sitting in the Imperial Throne, and enrobed with the Imperial vestment?

Divine they say, nay, I say not.

A God does not Die.
