As @lexocoornfell says, he may have had illegitimate children but there's oddly no record of that. There's some suggestion his affairs were mostly homosexual.

    Welp, while I'm firmly in the camp saying Caligula was largely demonized by his contemporary historiographers (though he indeed had some episodes near the end of his life), this was incredibly entertaining, loved all the little details and a whole thing as large. Just as unhinged as Communopoly was and a great contender for comrade Stalin, "Monopoly, But ..." is an amazing addition to the channel.

    Imagine, Dom-poleon. renenacting the napoleonic wars with RISK would be fun. managing supply lines, morale, having special event cards that can screw with everyone and each nation having a special ability. Who knows what can happen with Dom-poleon at the helm.

      Domitian? The guy who invited his colleagues to frightening dark gatherings where only he knew what was going on, just to display his powers?
      Nah, can't see the paralels.

    • @scottishjedi1522
      @scottishjedi1522 3 місяці тому +2

      Ah yes, Domitian. The guy who once threw a banquet for some Senators where he draped the entire dining hall in black and had a gravestone with each guests name written on sat next to each guest. Domitian then spent the entire meal talking about how much he would love to slaughter the entire Senate to the quaking, terrified guests before saying goodnight, sending them home, and sending the tombstone to them as a ‘gift’.
      No wonder he was condemned to oblivion for eternity after he was murdered.

    There were roughly 70 roman emperors.
    An estimated 37 of them were murdered.
    OVER HALF OF ALL PEOPLE WHO WORE THE LAUREL WERE MURDERED.

    Also if no one references "Romanes Eunt Domus" I will be throroghly disappointed

    I have never watched you guys before, but the title of this video intrigued me enough that i HAD to check it out. The guy who played Calligula's acting in the first part snagged me in to continue, and the overall vibe of this video gave me a lot of enjoyment! Very Smosh Board AF vibes (this is a compliment) where people are just, enjoying playing a board game together. Poor rosie burning to death while being the strongest member on the board is hilarious. Consider me subscribed, and checking out your guys' other content!
