Claudius Caesar Augustus Germanicus, best known as Nero) - Roman emperor from October 13, 54, the last of the Julio-Claudian dynasty. Also princeps senate, consular tribune. Without exaggeration, we can say that Nero is the most famous of the Roman emperors. But his fame is of a very dubious nature. He is famous, above all, for his cruelty and thirst for power: he killed his mother, on his orders people were thrown to be torn apart by wild animals and the first Christians were burned.
