Answer 1

d. was assassinated by leading senators convinced his death would restore the republic.

Step-by-step explanation:

Julius Caesar had the title of "dictator for life" by the time he was assassinated by three senators: Marcus Junius Brutus, Cassius Longinus and Decimus Junius Brutus in 44 BC. He was stabbed to death in a theater, and several other senators were conspirators.

The goal of the senators was to re-establish the republic, however, they were ineffective in achieving this goal, and what broke out next was a civil war that ended when Augustus finally took power and became the first Roman Emperor.
