🔪 Why Was Julius Caesar Murdered? Who Was Behind the Conspiracy? And What Really Happened on the Ides of March in 44 BCE?

In this video, we take you step by step through one of the most famous political conspiracies in human history—the assassination of Gaius Julius Caesar, an event that changed the course of Ancient Rome and the world forever.

📜 You will learn:

Who organized the conspiracy against Caesar and why: Marcus Junius Brutus, Gaius Cassius Longinus, Decimus Junius Brutus, Publius Servilius Casca, and others.
What their motives were: ideology, personal grievances, ambition, and fear of dictatorship.
How the conspirators planned Caesar's murder: from the initial idea of killing him at the Forum to the final decision to strike during a Senate meeting at the Theatre of Pompey.
How the conspirators neutralized Mark Antony, who could have thwarted the assassination.
The events of the day of the murder: omens, portents, Calpurnia’s dream, the prophetic words "Beware the Ides of March," Caesar’s refusal of protection, and Decimus Brutus’s betrayal.
The details of Caesar’s assassination: the first strike, the screams, the tragedy, 23 stab wounds, his final gestures, and the truth behind the famous words "Et tu, Brute?"
The reaction of Rome: shock, grief, and hatred toward the conspirators.
Mark Antony’s powerful funeral speech: how it changed public opinion.
Caesar’s will, which became a political bombshell—and an unexpected gift to the people.
Why Caesar’s body wasn’t buried in a tomb but was burned on the Roman Forum.
What happened to the conspirators after the murder: exile, flight, defeat, and suicides.

⚔️ This video is not just about the death of a dictator. It's a story of betrayal and loyalty, fear and hope, personal ambitions and societal illusions. A tale of how one day can destroy a Republic and pave the way for an Empire.
