Emperor Caligula was one of the most notorious and eccentric emperors in Roman history. He was known for his cruelty, his lavish spending, and his bizarre behavior. But perhaps the most megalomaniacal thing about Caligula was that he declared himself a god.
Caligula demanded to be worshipped by his subjects, and he built temples to himself all over the Roman Empire. He also had statues of himself erected in public places, and he required people to bow down to him as they passed by.
Caligula's declaration of godhood was met with outrage by the Roman people. They saw it as a sign of his madness and his disregard for Roman tradition. Caligula's own advisors were also concerned about his behavior, and they feared that he was leading the empire to ruin.
In 41 AD, Caligula was assassinated by a group of his own guards. His assassination was a relief to the Roman people, and it marked the end of one of the most bizarre and turbulent reigns in Roman history.
