15 December 37 – 9 June 68
Nero was the 5th and last Roman Emperor of the Julio-Claudian dynasty. He was loved by the common masses in Rome. They loved his entertaining antics. In 64 A.D., a fire started in Rome near the Circus where it joined the Palatine and Caelian hills. The fire quickly spread and devastated most of the city. Nero climbed to the top of a tower to get the best view of the devastation and sang of the destruction of Troy while accompanying himself on the lyre. The story that Nero fiddled while Rome burned is false, since the fiddle had not been invented yet.

A series of treason laws in A.D. 62 and the fire in Rome of A.D. 64 sealed Nero\'s reputation. Nero used the treason laws to kill anyone he considered a threat. The fire opened an opportunity for Nero to build his golden palace. In the year 65, Nero appeared in public as an entertainer. The next year, a conspiracy was hatched to replace him with Calpurnius Piso. The conspiracy uncovered, Seneca, Nero\'s former teacher, and Lucan were among those forced to commit suicide. Unrest throughout the Roman Empire turned the tables on the emperor: Nero was obliged to commit suicide on June 9 A.D. 68 in Rome.
