In the tragedy Julius Caesar conspirators plan to stop Caesar from becoming ruler of Rome. Brutus has not yet decided whether he wants to join the conspiracy or stay loyal to his friend Caesar. Along the course of the tragedy readers will find themselves like Brutus, contemplating what side to support. The fall or the revival of Rome depends on whether the people choose to support or condemn the conspiracy. Supporting the conspiracy would be the wiser decision. Since the rebellion of the Brutus family on Rome’s monarchy, Rome became a republic. If Caesar is given the crown it is certainly possible that he will turn Rome back into a monarchy. During a race, Caesar says to Marc Antony “Forget not in your speed, Antonius, To touch Calphurnia”
