Does Julius Caesar Deserve To Die Essay

Many believe Julius Caesar deserved to live, while others believed that he deserved to die. It has facts to prove either could be correct. In William Shakespeare's The Tragedy of Julius Caesar, we think that Julius Caesar did not deserve to die. JC was a friend to many and had lots of good ideas and political knowledge.
Our first reason in saying that JC didn't deserve to be murdered, was that only a few people thought he should be murdered. First of all, nobody deserves to be murdered.

He obviously did not have the best interest in Rome if he didn't think he could be leader. Third, the people who killed him knew that his death would have a big impact on the people of Rome. They wanted to make a point that they had the best interest in Rome by showing that they would go as far as to kill their friend for their country’s
