Julius Caesar: The Making of a Dictator

Caesar enters into dangerous alliances and bends the rules of the Republic in his bid to become Consul.

As Caesar takes control of Rome and consolidates his grip over the republic, he awards himself ever-greater powers; appointed dictator for one year to restore peace, Caesar soon extends this until he is declared dictator for life.

Events out of Caesar's control threaten to unravel his plans and leave him isolated; pushed into a corner, he makes a decision that will change the course of the Republic forever.
