Even though Nero sounded like a good emperor he wasn’t. He set fire on buildings which were prone to collapse. That was considered Nero’s work. Nero was married several times and killed most of his wives. As times went on he was having a power struggle with his mom. He rigged a boat which was sent out to sea to sink. People believed he was very selfish. =====

Nero will be remembered for a legendary figure. When he died many christens believed he was Stan Incarnate or the devil. It was said that he passed away from natural causes but people believed that he never died or was killed. Even though he was known as a good lyre player soon people believed he wasn’t which made him very furious. The senate then proclaimed him as a public enemy. Nero now will be remembered for his good things and his bad things that he did in his life.
