- Was he gay, bi or just willing to do whatever it took for a goal?
- Why was he a political maverick when he was born into the nobility?
- Did he want to rule the world or Roman world?
- Was the fall of the Republic his fault?
- Why did Emperors after him take the name Caesar?
- “Et tu, Brute?” – his real last words?
- The origin of “crossing the Rubicon”.
