[00:00:00]23 senators, hidden daggers under their togas. Caesar has no idea. He's walking in right now.

[00:00:08]That note in his hand contains every conspirator's name.

[00:00:12]He will never read it. He walked right past salvation. 23 men, 23 daggers, all at once. The entire Senate watching. It lasted less than a minute. Every senator ran. The conspirators accidentally stabbed each other. Caesar fell alone at the base of Pompey's statue.

[00:00:32]They killed [music] Caesar to save the Republic. Instead, they ended it.

[00:00:37]Rome was never a republic again.

[00:00:40]Antony just showed them the toga. 23 holes. The crowd just turned. The conspirators are already fleeing Rome.

[00:00:48]17 years of civil war follow this morning.
