The Paradox of Nero: A Legacy of Infamy and Popularity

In the first century, Rome underwent a major political transition when the Emperor Nero died after being declared an enemy of Rome by the senate. 

With his death, the Julio-Claudian dynasty came to an end, ushering in a period known as the Year of the Four Emperors.

For the common people, many of them simply didn’t believe that Nero was dead. In fact, many thought that he would one day return. 

Learn more about the Nero redivivus phenomenon, Pseudo-Neros, and how the death of Nero was felt for centuries on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.
