Wants to switch directly from governorship to consulship: pompey avoids the matter, then disagrees. 50-49: more search for compromises: senate (cato): senatus consultum ultimum, tribunes (cassius + mark anthony) have to flee from rome. 44: perpetual dictatorship: command against parthia. March 15, 44: last meeting of the senate before caesar"s departure for syria: stabbed by a group of conspirators. Has set up the foundations of the imperial regime victory of the populares over the optimates monarchy without the name.
