Class Friday!

We learned about Tiberias who was a bad ruler. He had Coligulas two older brothers killed and killed other political rivals. He got sick of Rome and went away to a little island to hide away. Once his rule ended Caligula took over. He was a bipolar ruler who made bad decisions and even killed a priest by stabbing him in the head. He also stopped in the middle of a war to pick up seashells. He did not like Jews. Which does not explain why he made a statue of himself in a Jewish church. Finally Claudius was a not very graceful person. Eventually he was the empire of Rome and was nice to the people.
