'' Julius Caesar
Julius Caesar the second born 13 July 100 BC 3 15 March 44 BC)[4]. Caesar was a Roman general and statesman. He played a critical role in the transformation of the Roman Republic into the Roman Empire.
Born into a patrician family, Caesar's youth was a tumultuous time in the Roman Republic. His uncle Gaius Marius was an influential populares politician and commander. In 88 BC, Rome was engulfed by a civil war between his uncle and a powerful optimates general, Sulla. Both men took control of Rome in rapid succession, proscribing eachothers supporters in the process. During the turmoil, Caesar barely escaped with his life. Caesar returned to Rome after Sulla's death in 78 BC, allowing him to pursue a career as an advocate. He fought in Asia and Cilicia with distinction, earning the corona civica. As a politician, Caesar made use of popularist tactics. He formed political alliances that led to the so-called First Triumvirate, an extra-legal arrangement with Marcus Licinius Crassus and Gnaeus Pompeius Magnus (Pompey the Great) that was to dominate Roman politics for several years.

"My favorite Greek thinker"
My favorite greek is Herodotus. He was a great traveller and visited many lands around the Mediterranean. On his journeys he collected many stories about the events and people of the past. He also recorded information about the events of the Persian War . He has become known as 'the father of history'. He collected all these stories and information together in a work called The Histories and that is why he is one of the most important greek thinkers.

''Hector''
Hector a god to the trojan war. Hector the one who lost against Achilles. If I was Hector I would not accepted the challenge and kill Achilles because I would rather kill Achilles than die cold hearted. It's better than dying from Achilles. I think that Hector wanted to prove that he can kill Achilles.
