What did the julio claudian rulers include?

The Julio-Claudians were a line of ancient Roman emperors. The Julians descended from Augustus Caesar (and in effect, his uncle and adoptive father, Julius Caesar, hence the name Julian) and the Claudians from his wife Livia (thru her first marriage to Tiberius Claudius Nero, father of the second emperor, Tiberius).

The Julio-Claudians were:

-Julius Caesar: Dictator of Rome

1. Augustus Caesar (27 BCE - 14 CE): 1st Emperor

2. Tiberius (14 - 37)

3. Caligula (37 - 41)

4. Claudius (41 - 54)

5. Nero (54 - 68)

As you already know Julius Ceasar got stabbed by a "friend" since he became such a Great Reformer but for others an Ambitious Dictator.
