The ending of Rome (video)

We started off by when Tibiris wife, Claudia, had poop thrown at her face because the people were angry at Tibiris because people were saying that he wanted to be king. Even his body gaurd had left him because he thought that Tibiris was trying to be a tyrant. They broke Tibiris fathers face mask. He said that he will run for tribune again and win over their support again. He was being yelled at by his mother saying not even her greatest enemies have given her that much pain. He said that he did not do this for the good of the people, or for the good of himself, but for his mother. The Senate was wanting to interfere, but they can't do anything legally. They misinterrpurted the symbol for being King and the Senate beat Tibiris Braccus to death. He had no funeral or anything just was dumped into the river.
