Answer:

He led the Roman armies in the Gallic Wars, then defeated his political rival in a civil war to become dictator of Rome in 49 BC. Today Caesar is still considered one of the greatest military commanders to have ever lived. Caesar's political ambitions led him to election for consulship in 60 BC.
