Video

We had finished the video about Tiberius and the Roman's. The ending was brutal and it showed how the senate worked sometimes. They would sneak in people to throw off the vote so that new laws that went against the senate could be turned down. The movie at the end showed that Tiberius wanted to give the land back to the poor from the rich. The senate didn't like that Tiberius would be taking the land they used to get rich and for hunting and give it back to the poor farm owners. The senate at the end took the problem into there own hands and beat down Tiberius with sticks and chairs. There were people that had told the senate that Tiberius was calling him self king and that when they went to vote the signal for his body guard was interpreted the wrong way and they thought that he was telling his servants to bring him the crown. In Rome that was the most heinous crime you could committed was wanting to be king.
