Answer:

throughout history julius caesar has been portrayed both as a "good" and "bad" leader.

Step-by-step explanation:

julius caesar was a renowned general, politician and scholar in ancient rome who conquered the vast region of gaul and helped initiate the end of the roman republic when he became dictator of the roman empire.

julius caesar can be considered both a good and bad leader. caesar's ability to rise through the ranks quickly and to command armies at such a young age are good examples of his natural leadership abilities. while dictator, caesar continued to improve rome by overhauling its tax system and improving the calendar. he can be considered a "bad" leader thanks to shady political alliances.

Caesar himself is pictured by Dante as a virtuous non-Christian. In the 14th century Julius Caesar was considered one of the nine worthies of history along with Alexander, Joshua, etc. ... Shakespeare in the play Julius Caesar in 1599 AD indicated Caesar was great but his tragic flaw was pride
