    For those who care
    Hadrian was a Roman emperor when the Romans settled in the UK. His constant wars with the picts (Scots) led to him building a wall to separate the Anglos (English) from them. Hadrian's wall still stands today on the border of England and Scotland.
    Cleopatra is one of the most well-known figures of the ancient world. Born in Egypt during the era where the romans occupied, her relationship with Mark Antony led to an a Roman Civil War with Augustus. This would end with lover and herself ending their own lives, using an Asp (poisonous snake).
    Caligula was one of the shortest reigning Roman at the time. In just four years, he annexed modern day Algeria, and attempted to invade the British Isles. His constructions within the empire included a statue of himself in Jerusalem. He worked to make the lives of ordinary people within the empire better.
    You'll see Levy make a comment about the Romans not showering, but they actually created bath houses. In fact, they were so well made that a city in modern England is still named after one of the largest they created (the city of... Bath, not exactly a creative name)
    Julius Caesar himself is one of the most renowned war generals of all time. His conquests into Gaul (modern day france) saw him envelope the land into the roman empire, completely subduing the tribes in the area. He was the first Roman to cross the Rhine river into the lands of the Germanic tribes (Germany) and he was given his legendary status for his crossing of the English channel, becoming the first to explore the previously thought mythical lands of Britannia. His assassination in the Roman Senate in the middle of the month gave birth to an iconic phrase - Beware the Ides of March.
    Augustus was the creator of the Roman Empire, moving out of the era of the Republic. Since Julius technically wasn't an emperor, Augustus' text calling himself the "best" is justified. He expanded the Roman territories in Africa to claim all of egypt, Tunisia, Algeria, up to the borders of Morocco. He also completed the Roman conquest of Spain. His attempted ventures into Germanic lands were rebutted, but he lived up to the name of his great uncle for who he was named, Julius Caesar.

    Cleopatra was the lover to both Julius Caesar and Marc Anthony, before ultimately being dethroned by Augustus following his war with Anthony. Famously, she took her own life via poison when she realized she was going to be taken to Rome as part of Augustus' Triumph. So I guess she's with these bots because she's more iconic than Anthony and played an important role in the history of the end of the Republic and beginning of the Empire.

    Bachelor of Arts in History here, cleopatra is included in the bot due to her having a child with Caesar. Hadrian is most famous for building Hadrian's wall on the current border of England and Scotland to mark the end of Roman territory and provide a small barrier for incoming armies. Despite some rumors, the wall was never intended to be large or taller than even hip height, and is designed more so as an annoyance to allow to for rotational guards to alert larger armies of the troops coming over the hedge sized wall in much slower fashion than a direct march. Stones from Hadrians wall were taken and utilized in many different buildings in the area surrounding it, and today not much is left.

    Levy I would be super happy if you see my comment and advise if that makes sense...
    I've got an idea adding a complexity or difficulty measure to chess engine evaluations. Traditional chess engines focus primarily on the objective evaluation of a position. This evaluation is based on the assumption that both sides play optimally. However, not all positions are equally challenging to play, even if the theoretical evaluation is the same.
    Potential Components of a "Difficulty Score":
    Move Complexity: Number of Critical Moves: In some positions, maintaining equality or an advantage may require very precise moves. A higher number of such critical moves would indicate a more complex position.; Variance in Evaluation: Positions where a slight inaccuracy leads to a large shift in evaluation (from equal to losing, for instance) could be considered more difficult.
    Depth of Calculation Required: Positions where critical moves or threats are several moves deep would generally be more challenging to navigate.
    Counterplay and Resources: The presence of counterplay or resources for the opponent could affect the difficulty. A position with dynamic imbalances might be harder to handle than a static one.

    The reason Augustus is higher rated than Ceasar is that Augustus was straight up smarter. The short story is that Ceasar openly tried to put himself as the leader of Rome, getting him assasinated before he managed to pass on his power making him technically not an emperor. Augustus kept the senate in charge while everyone accepted him as the puppeteer. This made him able to pass on the leadership to a succesor, making him the first real emperor of Rome in a LONG time

    Cleopatra is there because she was the queen of Egypt and Egypt was a imperial province (Rome conquered Egypt in 30 BC).

    Because of my man love for you Levy,
    Augustus, originally named Gaius Octavius and later adopted by Julius Caesar, was the first Roman Emperor and the founder of the Roman Empire. While Julius Caesar is one of the most recognized figures in history, known for his military conquests and pivotal role in the fall of the Roman Republic, Augustus' contributions were arguably more significant in the long term. Augustus reformed the administrative and financial systems, secured Rome's borders, and established a long period of peace known as the Pax Romana. His reign marked the transition from Republic to Empire, laying the foundation for centuries of Roman stability and expansion. Unlike Caesar, whose assassination led to civil war, Augustus' rule brought enduring structure and prosperity, solidifying his legacy as one of history's most effective rulers. Given his accomplishments in both immediate and extended strategic planning, Augustus' chess rating might be even higher to reflect his comprehensive strategic prowess.
    *Hadrian* 720 _(Italy, 76-138 AD)_ - Hadrian was a Roman Emperor known for his significant building projects, including Hadrian's Wall in Britain and the Temple of Zeus in Athens.
    *Rating Assessment:* This rating seems appropriate given Hadrian's focus on defense and infrastructure rather than aggressive expansion, akin to a defensive chess player.
    *Proposed Rating:* 800 - Slightly higher to reflect his strategic defensive mindset.
    *Type of Trash Talk:* "If only I built some type of defensive fortification. A wall, perhaps."
    *Explanation:* This sounds accurate because Hadrian is famous for constructing Hadrian's Wall as a defensive measure, reflecting his focus on fortifications.
    *Cleopatra* 1350 _(Egypt, 69-30 BC)_ - Cleopatra VII was the last active ruler of the Ptolemaic Kingdom of Egypt, known for her intelligence, political acumen, and romantic liaisons with Roman leaders Julius Caesar and Mark Antony.
    *Rating Assessment:* This seems a bit low given Cleopatra's reputation for cunning and strategic alliances, indicative of a sharp and strategic chess player.
    *Proposed Rating:* 1600 - More fitting to her known strategic thinking and political acumen.
    *Type of Trash Talk:* "The greatest battles are not won with swords, but queens."
    *Explanation:* This sounds accurate because Cleopatra was known for her strategic thinking and influential power, fitting her historical reputation.
    *Caligula* 1415 _(Italy, 12-41 AD)_ - Caligula was a Roman Emperor known for his erratic behavior, cruelty, and extravagant claims of divinity.
    *Rating Assessment:* This rating seems reasonable, reflecting Caligula's aggressive and unpredictable nature, which can sometimes be advantageous in chess but also risky.
    *Proposed Rating:* 1415 - Remains appropriate due to his volatile and aggressive nature.
    *Type of Trash Talk:* "Beat me, and you will be feared more than one thousand Caesars!"
    *Explanation:* This sounds accurate because Caligula's reign was marked by his ruthless and terrifying reputation, making this bold and intimidating statement fitting.
    *Caesar* 1795 _(Italy, 100-44 BC)_ - Julius Caesar was a military general, statesman, and pivotal figure in the end of the Roman Republic and the rise of the Roman Empire.
    Rating Assessment: This high rating is appropriate as Caesar's strategic and tactical skills in military and political spheres suggest he would excel at chess if he were a player, showcasing deep strategic thinking and planning.
    *Proposed Rating:* 1900 - Slightly higher to reflect his exceptional strategic and tactical prowess.
    *Type of Trash Talk:* "Tread carefully with your threat. You have crossed the Rubicon."
    *Explanation:* This sounds accurate because Caesar was known for making bold, decisive moves; crossing the Rubicon was a significant and irreversible act of defiance leading to his rise to power.
    *Augustus* _1865 (Italy, 63 BC-14 AD)_ - Augustus, born Gaius Octavius, was the first Roman Emperor and the adopted son of Julius Caesar. He established the Roman Empire and ushered in the Pax Romana, a period of relative peace and stability across the empire.
    *Rating Assessment:* This rating is accurate and could be even higher given Augustus' exceptional ability to handle both immediate and long-term strategic planning, indicating he would be an excellent chess player with a strong grasp of both tactics and strategy.
    *Proposed Rating:* 2000+ - Higher to reflect his comprehensive strategic prowess and transformative leadership.
    *Type of Trash Talk*: "I found Rome a city of brick and left it a city of marble."
    *Explanation:* This sounds accurate because Augustus is known for his transformative leadership and extensive building projects that significantly improved Rome.
    Another fun fact(s), the time between us and Cleopatra shorter of the time between Cleopatra and when the pyramids first started being built. Put simply, the Great Pyramids were ancient history by the time Cleopatra was born... that's how old they are.

      Also for additional context about Caesar's quote regarding the Rubicon:
      The Rubicon is a river in northern Italy. In 49 BC, Julius Caesar crossed the Rubicon with his army, defying the Roman Senate's orders and effectively declaring war on the Roman Republic. The phrase "crossing the Rubicon" signifies making an irreversible decision with significant consequences, highlighting Caesar's bold and decisive nature.

      @roderickmain9697 While that is true, Jericho's walls were still built to restrict the movement of people. They were built to restrict people who didn't live in Jericho from entering Jericho.
      Hadrian's wall, as well as other walls such as the Great Wall of China, simply apply the same principle on a larger scale.

    For those who did not know. Hadrian was known for being away alot on campaign alot like my Roman leaders and is mainly known for accomplishments in battle and building Hadrians Wall which lies between Scotland and England nearly the entire way across as the Romans did not feel awesome about fighting the scotish clans. He was also known to Machiveilli and now what we consider today as one of the 5 good Emporers of Rome who served diligently in battle and served the people well within the Roman borders

    Cleopatra was the last queen of the Ptolemic Empire in Egypt. She was a descendant of Ptolemy-I, a Macedonian-Greek General and companion of Alexandar, the Great. She was an ally to the Roman Empire well known for her relationship with Mark Antony, a Roman general and relative to Julius Caesar.

    In the UK everyone knows of Hadrian's wall. A barrier to keep out the Scots. It was a wall with a fort every mile across England from Newcastle in the East to Carlisle in the West. A series of forts extended southwards along the coast to protect against incursions by sea. Hadrian seems to be the emperor that declared a limit to empire. " We will stop here and protect what we have" could be an interpretation of Hadrian's wall. It is still an important tourist attraction and a source of continuing archaeological information about the Roman Empire. Does his chess persona reflect that attitude?

    Hadrian is most famously known for the Hadrian wall in England to keep out the barbarians (well warn of their attacks and slow them down, not really meant to actually stop them)
    Cleopatra was Queen of Egypt but from the Greek Ptolemaic dynasty, she had a thing going with Ceasar and made a child with him, Ceasarion (little ceasar)

    Hadrian was the Emperor that ordered the construction of Hadrian's wall. As in the wall that seperated Britannia from Scotland
    Cleopatra was Egyptian (of Greek descent), but she married both Caesar and Anthony and played a big role in Egypt becoming part of the Roman Empire
    Caesar was not an emperor on paper, although he was the one to overthrow the republic together with Crassus and Pompey. But after they died, Caesar grabbed power and proclaimed himself dictator for life. Then he got assasinated, but shit had already hit the fan for the Republic and Caesars adopted son Octavian crowned himself the first emperor of Rome and then took the name/title Augustus, which roughly translates to 'elevated'

    Hadrian was a Roman emperor who ordered a wall to be built across britain, to separate Roman-occupied parts from the Celts
    Cleopatra's connection to Rome is that she was a mistress of both Julius Cesar (who was never an emperor, technically his reign was still Roman Republic, he wanted to officialy make himself an emperor, but was killed before he could acheive this) and Mark Anthony (who was one of the pretendents to rule Rome after Ceasar's death along with Octavian Augustus, who won that race and became the first emperor). Fun fact - Cleopatra's first meeting with Julius Ceasar was when she smuggled herself inside bedsheets or something into his room when he stationed in Egypt.
