On this date, October 13, in 54 AD, the Roman Emperor Claudius died, and his adopted son Nero ascended to power, marking the beginning of one of the most notorious reigns in Roman history. https://m.primal.net/LUnP.png Nero became emperor at just 16 years old, initially under the guidance of his mother Agrippina and the famed Stoic philosopher Seneca, who served as his advisor. For a few years, Seneca and the Praetorian Prefect Burrus managed to keep Nero's excesses in check, and the empire experienced relative stability. However, as Nero grew older and more independent, his darker tendencies began to surface. https://m.primal.net/LUnT.png Nero's rule became synonymous with cruelty, extravagance, and tyranny. He is often remembered for his lavish lifestyle, throwing opulent parties and spending vast sums on his personal pleasures, including elaborate architectural projects like his Golden House, which was a palace filled with immense luxury. https://m.primal.net/LUnY.png Nero’s thirst for artistic glory led him to perform in public, something considered beneath an emperor, as he fancied himself a great poet, singer, and charioteer. His growing paranoia led to a series of brutal acts, including the execution of his own mother, Agrippina, and the forced suicides of his former advisor Seneca and other prominent figures in Rome. https://m.primal.net/LUnc.png One of the most infamous events of Nero's reign was the Great Fire of Rome in 64 AD, which devastated much of the city. Rumors circulated that Nero himself had started the fire to clear space for his Golden House, and though these claims are debated, his reaction to the disaster only further damaged his reputation. https://m.primal.net/LUnd.png To deflect blame, Nero targeted the Christians, using them as scapegoats for the fire. This led to the first major persecution of Christians in Roman history, during which many were brutally executed, including being burned alive or torn apart by wild animals in public spectacles. Nero's reign ended in chaos and revolt. His cruelty and neglect of the empire’s governance ultimately led to a widespread uprising. Declared a public enemy by the Senate, Nero fled Rome and, facing certain death, took his own life in 68 AD, marking the end of the Julio-Claudian dynasty. https://m.primal.net/LUnj.png Though his reign began with promise under the influence of Seneca, Nero's legacy is forever tainted by his extravagance, cruelty, and persecution, leaving him as one of the most infamous figures in Roman history. https://m.primal.net/LUnu.png The Roman writer, Suetonius, has a interesting read on Nero and all of his antics in The Twelve Caesars.

First thing that popped into my head. He performs great signs, so that he even makes fire come down from heaven on the earth in the sight of men. Probably nothing.

Nice I've been to many of these places already. Italy is really beautiful.
