Lastly and most importantly, the conspirators were wrong to murder Julius Caesar because they placed their interests before those of Rome.

The assassination of Julius Caesar in 44BC by conspiring members of the Roman senate was an effort to remove a dictator whose power had grown to extraordinary levels and to revive the Republic government. Caesar’s power span throughout the entire Roman Empire, which during his reign extended from present day Syria, down into parts of Africa, over to Spain, most of France and all of Italy. He had the favor of the people, military and most of the Roman government. Caesar’s death at the hand of conspirators did remove him from power; however, it did not restore the Republic government as the Senate had anticipated, on-the-other hand it gave rise to yet a more powerful dictator that was beyond what Caesar

Rome was the most powerful empire that ruled the world, from Europe to Africa, and Syria to Spain. During the first century AD, the Roman Empire ruled with superiority and ruthlessness. The powerful Roman empire became a mirror of civilization of authority, strength to fear, dictatorship, and voraciousness. These powerful aristocrats were emperors, sat on the top of Rome’s social order, but many of these emperors abused their status and ability.

This assassination was widely discussed by the prominent authors of his time. While they do not all agree, the general consensus is that jealousy (both from his supporters and his detractors), Caesar's pride, and a cultural resistance to the idea of the kingship all contributed to Caesar's gruesome death at the hands of his friends and peers.

He had a short one year of serving as the dictator before his assassination.

The conspirators intentions were based on logic and emotion. They were able to see that Julius was changing in his ways after Antony had offered him the crown several times.
