Description

:mwahaha: Caligula's awesome. The quote's from the great tv series I, Claudius that we watched in Latin. It's Caligula talking with Claudius. The joke and irony is that, when you have an insane emperor, no one's going to say that he's insane unless they wish to be punished by said insane emperor.

But he wanted his horse, Incitatus, as a Senator, led the Roman army in a war against Poseidon and had them attack the sea (the spoils of the war were seashells :D), thought he was a god and above Zeus/Jupiter, did a magnificent dance for Claudius and co, and other things.

He probably wasn't crazy in real life, but he wasn't a good leader, so most of the sources we have about Caligula may be untrue because when you have a bad leader, OF COURSE he's nuts. Possibly he did have epilepsy or had a near death illness that he didn't quite recover from which resulted in his insanity. Or many other possibilites (I've done my research). But still Caly-kun or Calikins is awesome (and a great rolemodel for when me and Sabet rule the world! :mwahaha:)

I have a comic that I'll put up soon with the same quote, but with detail on his insane antics.

I don't own the original picture, I just edited it to make this.

Brilliant artwork :) (Smile) Caligula is somehow loveable! He was too mentally ill to be deemed morally responsible for his actions and he's to hilarious to be taken seriously as a tyrant :D (Big Grin) 
Zeusilla forever! (Caligula and Drusilla ship) ''DRUSILAAA!!!'' Heart
