Julius Caesar was a well-known Roman dictator whose name is still popular today. As a matter of fact, Shakespeare wrote a play about his life and it is still produced and shown today. A group of conspirators conjured up a theory about Caesar and an idea to kill him. However, these conspirators who were planning on killing their Roman leader were also friends and workers of Caesar. He trusted these people and worked with them every day.
So, it didn’t seem unusual that this group of senators came up to him. However, Tillius Cimber, Casca, and Brutus were among the sixty people who would assassinate their leader. Brutus was Caesar’s best friend. Also, these people were leader in Rome so that was unusual too.
Cassius and Brutus were the perpetrators of the plot to assassinate Julius Caesar. Decimus was another friend who betrayed Caesar by persuading him to come to the Senate, leading him there where the senators had daggers ready, hidden in a chest. Presumably all the senators present were complicit.
None of them wanted a man who was demanding absolute and complete power for himself. The death can be regarded as a senatorial decision. Given that there were 23 stab wounds, it is clear that it had taken more then one or two men to murder Caesar and that the senators were making very sure Caesar could not survive so very many wounds.
