Mike Duncan did a series for ancient rome, he points out the rumors in the video to be just rumors. Nero never started the fire, he never slept with his mother, and he never played the lyre while the fire was burning down rome. He had his mother executed because she was about to betray him for his step brother, since the previous emperor claudis had a biological son and nero was his stepson. Nero's mother married Claudis and convinced him to have her son be the crown prince instead of his son. She was manipulative and deceiving and when Nero no longer listened to her she plotted to remove him and have his step brother become the new emperor. Roman history is difficult so take it with a grain of salt with some of the material.
Nero also executed his wife (daughter of Cladius) to marry Poppea Sabina. After her death he marry a boy who look like her (idk if that boy getting castratred or not) . Nero also poisoned his step bro in front of everyone at party as warning to his mother and wife.
@@passerby7112 exactly! Even though most of his story was made up by rumors, it is also said that he murdered his stepbrother with poisoned mushrooms. Since the guy probably suffered from epilepsy nobody helped him during the banquet. There is no actual proof of what happened of course, but some time later Nero declered mushrooms food of the gods. A lot of these is probably bs by the way according to modern historians. Since the annals were written by the noble class it was proven that all the emperors who supported the plebe were discredited one way or another in officials documents. Plus , Nero's story was heavily distorted by christian scholars over the centuries.
@josephantonio5564 I know a little of Nero, I had to re learn some things since Mike Duncan pointed it out during his podcast. Making me go on a search to see what he said was true or not and to my surprise he was right. What happened with the fire in Rome is just as a mystery today as it was back then, Nero wasn't in rome at the time before and during the fire so he couldn't have started the fire or play the lyre while the city burned. And once he heard of the fire he gave orders to stop the fire and help the citizens.

There is only one difference between a psycho path and a sociopath in my opinion both r terrifying but one is tragic. A psychopath is born with no emotions it’s physical area of the brain that is dysfunctional; a sociopath is made and 90% of the time it’s Becuase of cruel upbringing, in other words they lose their emotions do to a traumatic childhoods as a defense mechanism to not suffer.
@@idiramara1no he’s right psychopaths are generally thought of as being born while sociopaths are made. Psychopaths tend to lack emotion while sociopaths tend to feel them even more then normal people, but mostly just anger.
@@blissr6277Yes but there are definitely big differences in a sociopath vs psychopath’s personality and I’m not completely sure what the specific differences are but if I’m correct I think sociopaths are paths are more impulsive, less self controlled, and I’m not sure what the word is but Ig less intelligent. Psychopaths are more strategic, less impulsive, and better at manipulation.
@@Relax-vb8in No I'm serious about this. Psychopaths feel no remorse and are born unable to, so they usually only become sadistic people who like to torture and kill people, manipulative but not powerful. Sociopaths become tyrants because they can care, but choose not to. Since they have some ounce of empathy they know they'll need to wait and become powerful. Not a psychologist, just a history nerd and always been obsessed with mental illness.
Nero was 30 miles away from Rome while it burned and as soon as a messenger told him ab it he rushed to Rome and did everything he could to stop the spread of the fire, and even made building codes to prevent future fires on top of generally taking care of the people displaced by it. The fire is the most common myth about his reign
K. But than why didn’t Nero rebuild the people houses instead of building his sinus aurea? Like Nero did nOT cause the fire but he probably took advantage of it.
Nero wasn’t in Rome at the time of the fire, he was in Antium, 35 miles outside of Rome. He reportedly rushed back as soon as he got news of the fire. It was July and it’s usually quite hot and dry, the dry and hot winds wouldn’t have helped once the fire started. The fire is believed to have began in a workshop near the circus Maximus. Whilst Nero did build his golden palace, he also led the reconstruction efforts and a lot of the archaeological sites in Rome today were built during his reign because of the fire. When the fire happened, a lot of buildings were made of wood. That wouldn’t have helped.
@@StarwarsfanArmy not everyone is serious when they are writing or commenting on some random shorts. It's never that serious bfr 💀And yes I have rubbish autocorrect what you gonna do? Buy me new phone? If you had so much problem just scroll and grow up 😭
What people don't understand about Nero is that he is a product his mother that was orchestrating everything for him since he was a child so that is a product of her lust for power and her manipulation which ultimately got her killed by the very weapon she was building.
@ddjj8 there's also the fact that the senate and the rich hated him....and the senate and the rich are responsible for writing history, some people say that the general public probably still liked him
@@ibraheemshuaib8954 I understand where you are coming from but too many text verify his cruelty and twisted ways. The public had no choice but to validate him because even when he would sing, he required the public to treat him like he was the best and most talented. It wasn't that the public loved him, they loved their lives and not being fed to lions or burned alive to light the pathways.
Historian Student here! It is unclear if Nero really was responsible for the fire. It is true that he was accused for it, but we never know if he really was responsible for it, bcs there are also arguments that he wasn't it, like the fact that many buildings in Rom were really close to each other and were build out of materials that can easily catch fire
It happened from time to time because how roman apartement buildings are. They are just fire hazards waiting to happen. Its something that happened when 1,6 million people are crammed in one city with tenements so close to each other.....
Yes in fact it was tjeir 1st Emperor Augustus or formerly k own as Octavios but after being killed by his wife via posioning his son Emperor Tiberius i Think thats his name tookover whom was a bad emperor as well. (The problem with Agustus is that He WAS a GOOD EMPEROR so the Romans though hey maybe having a emperor isint really bad at all) so when they hv a bad one they just murder n replaced him.
Vespasian liked art and literature. He was not born to be a nobleman but was born into the middle/ working class Also Trajan was quite popular. Many buildings were set up during bis reign. (Trajan pillar, Forum Trajani, Trajan Bridge, termal baths..) He was also a soldier and expanded the Roman Empire. Constantin the First the Great. He founded Constantinople alias nowadays Istanbul. His military troops liked him. He became a Cristian and reformed the Roman Empire.
Actually, he never played the lyre while Rome burned, that's just a rumor to make him seem evil during a kind of good thing he did. He wasn't even in Rome when the fire started and returned to Rome as soon as he heard it was burning. If I remember correctly, he actually helped romans with money or housing after the fire, but he did indeed build a bigger palace for himself. He was still a horrible person, but not in reference to the fire.
@@Chadius_Thundercockthen why improved Nero the Roman city design for the next century by ordering more space between buildings, wider roads and less wood to be used? 🤦♂️
A little correction: Nero wasn't in Rome during the fire. He was in his summer residence in Antium and came to Rome days later. Then he watched the fire from a nearby aqueduct, not from a balcony, because the imperial palace on Palatine hill was one of the first buildings to burn down completely.
He's the one who crucified peter upside down, the hippie peace symbol being a representation of this violent act. He was an anti christ with substantial power.
The peace symbol has got nothing to do with that, what the fuck are you on about? The peace symbol is a mix between the N and the D of the flag semaphore alphabet and it stands for Nuclear Disarmament, which was designed in 1958 for the Aldertin march against nuclear war. Ence why it has evolved into representing peace.
I was reading that even though the account that Peter was crucified upside down is apocryphal (never accepted by the church) it is accepted as fact by christians.
& the peace sign doesn't originate from this, that's a very narrow "Christan/Catholic American view point". The peace symbol came from a man name named Gerald Holtom, to symbolized "nuclear disarmament" it's not a damn upside down/cut in half cross. It's called semaphore signals
Please don't forget that the sources on these emperors are biased and limited. It's well possible that Nero only gets his bad rep because history as we know it was written by his political enemies.
In fact, a lot of the horrific fact that he was accused of were mad up by Tite Live, an Roman historian who didn't like him, and so wrote his now knows book.
Aside from this, was there counter evidence that Nero didn't do these things? I mean he did build a 100' bronze statue of himself as a God along with a massive palace where the fire destroyed the city. And an emperor has the power to punish anyone who says anything to contradict him no matter how true.
@@lperea21Buddy, that was common custom in Roman historiography. Most historians were members of the senate and when an emperor treated the senate without respect they made him look like an evil maniac after his reign. The same happened with Caligula before, who was neither evil nor crazy, he just behaved like an asshat towards the senate.
@@elektrik_exekutioner6822 I get that, but like I said, aside from the theory that everyone hated the emperor (even though most emperors didn't seemed to have this issue), and that some things that were said seemed too extreme, was there any real evidence that it wasn't true? Thousands of years from now will Hitler be made into the victim of misunderstood contemporary historians? And what will they say about Trump? Was he just hated, or was there a legitimate reason for the hatred?
@@lperea21 What do you mean, is there any evidence against it? There's no evidence FOR it. If you voice an accusation you have to prove it, but there is no proof for that accusation.
@@elektrik_exekutioner6822 i actually did say that there was evidence. He built a 100' bronze naked statue of himself as a God and a massive palace in the heart of the city. This goes along with the megalomaniacal emperor and contradicts his benevolent "caring for the victims of the fire" story.
@@BLu3RayDiskRang3Hey, guess what? Before stricter moral conditions being emplaced on cultures, literally fucking everybody was like that. Even in the Bible it tells of how shitty people were without religion being spread and encouraged. God had to destroy his own people in a great flood to make them understand that they can't live like they were. It has nothing to do with race. It's about morality.
Nero was not present during the fires of Rome. Not only was he not present, once he found out about the fire, he quickly organized a relief for the victims, also allowing them to take refuge in his villas. Nero is probably one of the most misunderstood emperors and while not a good man, was definitely not evil and as derange as Caligula who was literally insane. Edit: not to mention that Nero was loved by the common proletarii and just the majority of the people of Rome. Second Edit: Also don’t forget about Emperor Elagabalus who is (arguably) worse than Caligula. Just a total madman and psychopath and sadist.
yeah this vid is very one-sided. they only took from the most popular sources when talking about Nero. and failed to mention that the people absolutley loved Nero, especially the plebes and lower classes.
@@longforgotten4823he also was anti christian which is another reason he is painted in a bad light. Additionally the flavian emperors ultimately succeeding him (after Galba, Otho and Vitellius) had interest in painting Nero and most other Julian emperors (excluding Augustus) in a bad light to present themselves as better.
As a historian this video hurts me. The incest allegations were political propraganda, his supposed burning of Rome has been studied for years and the consensus is that he didn't do it. The persecution of Christians wasn't Nero's thing it had already been happening for some time, and Nero truly believed they were guilty since to this day we don't know who did it or if it was even intentional. But yes he was extremely cruel with Christians. But Nero was considered a good and popular emperor, The Senate hated him and his Mother was in fact plotting behind the scenes in politics, that isn't anything new, relatives of roman emperors always did and kept doing this for centuries to come, and many were executed for it just like Nero's mother. The truth is, Nero wasn't a demon or the worse Emperor in human history, he was just another one among many. The reason people focus on how bad he is, it's simply because Christians hated him and thus created many lies about him that some people wrongfully believe to this day. Stop spreading Misinformation
@@Yopops764 Nero's deed being overblown due to writers that recorded it past his death is literally the most basic fact about someone that studies the julio-claudian roman dynasty. History not being black and white is the most basic thing any historian should know, mister "expert"
Actually Nero isn't responsible for the Fire of Rome. He was accused by the writer and historican Publius Cornelius Tacitus in the Annales 15,38, but in fact this could never have been proven. In fact he wasn't even in Rome during the fire and Nero helped those, who lost their homes by the fire because he paid rebuilding the houses himself.
Nero did not fiddle while Rome burned. He wasn't even in the city, when he heard of the fire, he rushed back with a fire brigade & let the people stay in his palace However he miscalculated by using the damage of the city to build a statue of himself & a few other things. He took advantage of the situation but to the people it looked like he started the fire just to build the statue Which is untrue
Caligula. But the thing was though Caligula was bat shit crazy. Nero was just a plain narcissistic psychopath. Caligula was Nero's uncle btw so it runs in the family.
There was also no proof for him sleeping with his mom, or doing many of the things he did. He also did a lot for the fire victims such as building temporary shelters and insuring food. He also built a market and a large public bathhouse for the general public.
His history was written by his enemies Church needed a villain as well, the fire started by fanatical christians most likely the considered Rome the city of Satan they were skinning people alive as well or burning them
@@harini218 Ik it is romans, I am a fate fan Nero was the most iconic out of all the roman servants, she (yes he got genderbent) calls her citizens roma (which is also the way japanese call rome)
@@SahihChristian The surviving sources for Nero are mainly Suetonius and Tacitus, who (a) were not contemporary with Nero, (b) were anti-Julio-Claudian, and (c) were both from the senatorial order which Nero antagonized quite thoroughly during his reign. The people loved him, and there are reports of lost histories of Nero which paint him in a positive light which are now sadly lost. Minor surviving sources are Dio Chrysostom: "Indeed the truth about this has not come out even yet; for so far as the rest of his subjects were concerned, there was nothing to prevent his continuing to be Emperor for all time, seeing that even now everybody whishes he were still alive. And the great majority do believe that he still is, although in a certain sense he has died not once but often along with those who had been firmly convinced that he was still alive." And Josephus: "Nor do I wonder at such as have told lies of Nero, since they have not in their writings preserved the truth of history as to those facts that were earlier than his time, even when the actors could have no way incurred their hatred, since those writers lived a long time after them."
All things refuted for decades. Nero was a good emperor and he never burned Rome. Everything you say in the video was the propaganda of his political opponents
Here’s a few more facts, when Nero held parties he used Christians as his “garden lights”, and was rumored to have committed bestiality. Nero wasn’t the worst emperor, but he did many horrific things. He was just the most mentally unstable of the emperors or one of them
There is a theory that 666 for the devil was actually about Nero, as there was a system for letters and numbers and his full name amounts to 666. It was basically a way for them to talk shit about the emperor in code.
The fire of Rome is still desputed to this day ,because of comflicting accounts. A lot of Nero's enemies stated that he did it and laughed watching it burn. However there are a lot of reports that he was not even in Rome when it happend. Supposedly he rushed back and even housed a lot of people who lost everything in his palace
Nero had nothing to do with the fire, he wasn't even in Rome when it began. He spent a lot of his own money trying to help citizens during and after the fire.
Historians in his time compiled Nero’s life and pretty much agreed he orchestrated the fire. Just because he wasn’t there doesn’t mean he didn’t orchestrate the fires. There were also reports that men would supposedly stop the efforts to stamp the fires out. So yeah, it was pretty orchestrated. It also just coincidentally happened that the areas where the fire spread, he built his palace and projects. 2 + 2, doesn’t take a degree in rocket science to deduce who likely was the cause of it.
What my dad did to me in my childhood is nothing compared to *castration*, physically altered to serve someone's delusions because he killed his wife & unborn child
First, his mother was a fierce politician, and she managed to make her son the emperor so she could control him and the empire. That is why it is speculated that the Senate wanted her dead and did not charge Nero with the crime of killing his own mother, which was punishable by death. Secondly, Nero was in a villa away from Rome when the fire was ignited, and when he heard the news, he immediately rushed to Rome's aid. Nero was a person who was generally liked by the masses, but the elites hated him, so they made a lot of propaganda against him. Although he, like many other emperors, was not such a great human being, he was still not as bad as the media wants you to believe he was since the average human being confronted with such great power at such a young age would develop bad personality traits.
Yes because the emperor of Rome didn't have the power or money to hire someone he could of only burned it with his own hands no other explanation at all
historians have been pretty sure for a while now that he didn't burn it down himself, he probably even helped the people during and after the fire. These are just rumours made by Roman historians who didn't like him, cause he caused a massive economic crisis when trying to rebuild the city in a very expensive way (with his golden palace and stuff)
None of that is true! He wasn’t even in Rome when the fire happened! he did however rush back and try and help people of Rome!!! The Roman Catholic Church made all these stories up because he did Persecute Christian’s
If I remember well, the idea that Nero was the responsable of the fire came out from the common people and was supported also by pagan hystorians who hated him, not by catholics.
Although a cruel man Nero didn't burn down Rome that was a rumor created by his competitors to destroy his reputation. Numerous sources indicate that Nero was on holiday when Rome burnt down
Yeah but they seem to say that it was probably propaganda by his opponents because it seems so unbelievable. Then 2016 happened and all that went away.
1. He didn't burn rome he was not even there. 2. His wife died during child birth. 3. He did marry a man but didn't castrate him. 4. He didn't blame the christian for burning rome he blamed the jews like almost everyone did.

@josephantonio5564 I know a little of Nero, I had to re learn some things since Mike Duncan pointed it out during his podcast. Making me go on a search to see what he said was true or not and to my surprise he was right. What happened with the fire in Rome is just as a mystery today as it was back then, Nero wasn't in rome at the time before and during the fire so he couldn't have started the fire or play the lyre while the city burned. And once he heard of the fire he gave orders to stop the fire and help the citizens.
So that's why Vergil won't pay his child support

This is why you never should give someone too much power
Im convinced Nero was born in the right era, had he born now he wouldn't have hesitated on starting nuclear WW3
Wouldnt have rose to power. He is a dumb guy who got lucky, he didnt have to use his brain to rise to politics it was given to him. Even for faulty country systems like Russia and China the leaders have had to be somewhat capable and intelligent to rise, their political power wasnt hand to them for them to destroy humanity.

"he regretted that later" I'm telling you, psychopaths only ever get to the serial killer level. Sociopaths get all the way to the tyrant level.
There is only one difference between a psycho path and a sociopath in my opinion both r terrifying but one is tragic. A psychopath is born with no emotions it’s physical area of the brain that is dysfunctional; a sociopath is made and 90% of the time it’s Becuase of cruel upbringing, in other words they lose their emotions do to a traumatic childhoods as a defense mechanism to not suffer.
@@blissr6277 Are you sure its not the other way around ?
@@idiramara1no he’s right psychopaths are generally thought of as being born while sociopaths are made. Psychopaths tend to lack emotion while sociopaths tend to feel them even more then normal people, but mostly just anger.
@@blissr6277Yes but there are definitely big differences in a sociopath vs psychopath’s personality and I’m not completely sure what the specific differences are but if I’m correct I think sociopaths are paths are more impulsive, less self controlled, and I’m not sure what the word is but Ig less intelligent. Psychopaths are more strategic, less impulsive, and better at manipulation.
@@Relax-vb8in No I'm serious about this. Psychopaths feel no remorse and are born unable to, so they usually only become sadistic people who like to torture and kill people, manipulative but not powerful. Sociopaths become tyrants because they can care, but choose not to. Since they have some ounce of empathy they know they'll need to wait and become powerful. Not a psychologist, just a history nerd and always been obsessed with mental illness.
Nero was 30 miles away from Rome while it burned and as soon as a messenger told him ab it he rushed to Rome and did everything he could to stop the spread of the fire, and even made building codes to prevent future fires on top of generally taking care of the people displaced by it. The fire is the most common myth about his reign
Thank you was wondering were this comment would be.
I was just about to comment that. Roman politics. Somebody's gotta take the fall.

Nero wasn’t in Rome at the time of the fire, he was in Antium, 35 miles outside of Rome. He reportedly rushed back as soon as he got news of the fire. It was July and it’s usually quite hot and dry, the dry and hot winds wouldn’t have helped once the fire started. The fire is believed to have began in a workshop near the circus Maximus. Whilst Nero did build his golden palace, he also led the reconstruction efforts and a lot of the archaeological sites in Rome today were built during his reign because of the fire. When the fire happened, a lot of buildings were made of wood. That wouldn’t have helped.

What people don't understand about Nero is that he is a product his mother that was orchestrating everything for him since he was a child so that is a product of her lust for power and her manipulation which ultimately got her killed by the very weapon she was building.
And people also need to realise that not all that is said bout Nero is true. He was more or less an average emperor in terms of cruelty
@@ibraheemshuaib8954 I don't know about average but he was definitely getting a run for his money when you look at Elegalbas and Caligula.

Historian Student here! It is unclear if Nero really was responsible for the fire. It is true that he was accused for it, but we never know if he really was responsible for it, bcs there are also arguments that he wasn't it, like the fact that many buildings in Rom were really close to each other and were build out of materials that can easily catch fire
It happened from time to time because how roman apartement buildings are. They are just fire hazards waiting to happen. Its something that happened when 1,6 million people are crammed in one city with tenements so close to each other.....

Yes in fact it was tjeir 1st Emperor Augustus or formerly k own as Octavios but after being killed by his wife via posioning his son Emperor Tiberius i Think thats his name tookover whom was a bad emperor as well. (The problem with Agustus is that He WAS a GOOD EMPEROR so the Romans though hey maybe having a emperor isint really bad at all) so when they hv a bad one they just murder n replaced him.
Octavian the 🐐
Vespasian liked art and literature. He was not born to be a nobleman but was born into the middle/ working class Also Trajan was quite popular. Many buildings were set up during bis reign.

A little correction: Nero wasn't in Rome during the fire. He was in his summer residence in Antium and came to Rome days later.
Then he watched the fire from a nearby aqueduct, not from a balcony, because the imperial palace on Palatine hill was one of the first buildings to burn down completely.

He's the one who crucified peter upside down, the hippie peace symbol being a representation of this violent act. He was an anti christ with substantial power.
Yet he wasn't actually in Rome when Rome burned, he was in the countryside at a private estate. Nero only fiddled over the Roman candles.
The peace symbol has got nothing to do with that, what the fuck are you on about? The peace symbol is a mix between the N and the D of the flag semaphore alphabet and it stands for Nuclear Disarmament, which was designed in 1958 for the Aldertin march against nuclear war. Ence why it has evolved into representing peace.
I was reading that even though the account that Peter was crucified upside down is apocryphal (never accepted by the church) it is accepted as fact by christians.
& the peace sign doesn't originate from this, that's a very narrow "Christan/Catholic American view point". The peace symbol came from a man name named Gerald Holtom, to symbolized "nuclear disarmament" it's not a damn upside down/cut in half cross. It's called semaphore signals

And an emperor has the power to punish anyone who says anything to contradict him no matter how true.
@@lperea21Buddy, that was common custom in Roman historiography.

@@elektrik_exekutioner6822 I get that, but like I said, aside from the theory that everyone hated the emperor (even though most emperors didn't seemed to have this issue), and that some things that were said seemed too extreme, was there any real evidence that it wasn't true?

Nero was not present during the fires of Rome. Not only was he not present, once he found out about the fire, he quickly organized a relief for the victims, also allowing them to take refuge in his villas. Nero is probably one of the most misunderstood emperors and while not a good man, was definitely not evil and as derange as Caligula who was literally insane.
Edit: not to mention that Nero was loved by the common proletarii and just the majority of the people of Rome.
Second Edit: Also don’t forget about Emperor Elagabalus who is (arguably) worse than Caligula. Just a total madman and psychopath and sadist.
Agreed this video is very misleading with the great fire during Nero’s reign
yeah this vid is very one-sided. they only took from the most popular sources when talking about Nero. and failed to mention that the people absolutley loved Nero, especially the plebes and lower classes.
Caligula was funny
Nero was good
The people liked him in the aristocracy did not, which is why we still have these myths today. Pretty standard for a Roman emperor, if you ask me.
@@longforgotten4823he also was anti christian which is another reason he is painted in a bad light.

As a historian this video hurts me. The incest allegations were political propraganda, his supposed burning of Rome has been studied for years and the consensus is that he didn't do it.
The persecution of Christians wasn't Nero's thing it had already been happening for some time, and Nero truly believed they were guilty since to this day we don't know who did it or if it was even intentional. But yes he was extremely cruel with Christians.
But Nero was considered a good and popular emperor, The Senate hated him and his Mother was in fact plotting behind the scenes in politics, that isn't anything new, relatives of roman emperors always did and kept doing this for centuries to come, and many were executed for it just like Nero's mother.
The truth is, Nero wasn't a demon or the worse Emperor in human history, he was just another one among many. The reason people focus on how bad he is, it's simply because Christians hated him and thus created many lies about him that some people wrongfully believe to this day.

There was no proof for his responsibility in the greatfire of Rome. U can't accuse him just because he was a bad guy.
There was also no proof for him sleeping with his mom, or doing many of the things he did. He also did a lot for the fire victims such as building temporary shelters and insuring food. He also built a market and a large public bathhouse for the general public.

@@SahihChristian The surviving sources for Nero are mainly Suetonius and Tacitus, who (a) were not contemporary with Nero, (b) were anti-Julio-Claudian, and (c) were both from the senatorial order which Nero antagonized quite thoroughly during his reign. The people loved him, and there are reports of lost histories of Nero which paint him in a positive light which are now sadly lost.
Minor surviving sources are Dio Chrysostom:
"Indeed the truth about this has not come out even yet; for so far as the rest of his subjects were concerned, there was nothing to prevent his continuing to be Emperor for all time, seeing that even now everybody whishes he were still alive. And the great majority do believe that he still is, although in a certain sense he has died not once but often along with those who had been firmly convinced that he was still alive."
And Josephus:
"Nor do I wonder at such as have told lies of Nero, since they have not in their writings preserved the truth of history as to those facts that were earlier than his time, even when the actors could have no way incurred their hatred, since those writers lived a long time after them."

There were also reports that men would supposedly stop the efforts to stamp the fires out. So yeah, it was pretty orchestrated. It also just coincidentally happened that the areas where the fire spread, he built his palace and projects. 2 + 2, doesn’t take a degree in rocket science to deduce who likely was the cause of it.

Longest way of say someone shouldn’t have been born
First, his mother was a fierce politician, and she managed to make her son the emperor so she could control him and the empire. That is why it is speculated that the Senate wanted her dead and did not charge Nero with the crime of killing his own mother, which was punishable by death. Secondly, Nero was in a villa away from Rome when the fire was ignited, and when he heard the news, he immediately rushed to Rome's aid. Nero was a person who was generally liked by the masses, but the elites hated him, so they made a lot of propaganda against him. Although he, like many other emperors, was not such a great human being, he was still not as bad as the media wants you to believe he was since the average human being confronted with such great power at such a young age would develop bad personality traits.
