Augustus was right with the proscritions. Even though maybe some innocents were killed the established elites kept assasinating anyone trying to help the poeple. Cesear was the latest in a long line of populares who were assassinated. Augustus had to clean house and strike fear into the ancestors of these people

As a Romabro, this is the story that makes me angrier than any other. Octavian was a vicious cunt, as was Sulla, and they got away with their crimes which always frustrated me, but it makes me supremely angry that no one ever avenged the Gracchi brothers.

Nah Gracc just got that galaxy brain, the Senate Brainlets just made up the molten metal thing to look less stupid

A little bit over a decade later his younger brother Tiberius Gracchus tried to continue the reforms started by his brother and met the same fate only without the head story.

Imagine the gracchi brothers were within 100 years of the fall of the republic

What did he do to be hated by the senators?

[LordWyatt]

Wish the people of Rome would have avenged his death like they did for Caesar.
