Commodus - The Worst Roman Emperor?

Commodus was the last of the Five Good Emperors of Rome, and his reign is considered one of the darkest periods in the empire's history. He was a cruel, deranged, and incompetent ruler who brought the empire to the brink of collapse. #shorts

It’s crazy how society say that women don’t know how to control their emotions when in world history it’s shown that men do not know how to manage their emotions either, especially when they have so much power.

This is the reason for a government from the people, where the people have fundamental rights and liberties. When those at the top have absolute power, they ALWAYS ABUSE IT.

They were always killing their fathers and siblings trying to gain heir to the throne. They were ruthless.

It was a really crazy period to be a roman emperor. He had so much power in the world, so his status was very much desirable. There were many plots against emperors and many of them were murdered. So it makes sense I think how most of them got insane. It must have been really weird to be so powerful and so insecure for your life at the same time.

Why Roman emperors seems like they’re always madly insane?

[Chandra-twrk]

Oh lord, I really thought my life and my generation time is bad, long time ago it was fucked up beyond fucked up.
Sorry lord for complaining.

[hazelanglin]

You must be mad to burn someone alive just because your bath water wasn't hot enough

[g.michellek]

They didn’t have God in their hearts. That is why every single empire has fallen.
