Italy: Icon of Nero Caesar (37-68 CE),5th Roman Emperor, from the book Icones imperatorvm romanorvm< / i> (Icons of Roman Emperors), Antwerp, c. 1645

Born Lucius Domitius Ahenobarbus (37-68 CE), Nero was the only son of Agrippina the Younger, who would later marry his great-uncle Emperor Claudius. Claudius adopted Nero, who was made heir and successor alongside Claudius' own son Brittanicus. Nero acceded to the throne after Claudius' death in 54 CE, possibly poisoned at the hands of Nero's mother.<br/><br/>. Nero's reign is infamous for his corruption, tyranny and extravagance, as well as his many executions, including that of his mother and the poisoning of his stepbrother Britannicus soon after the start of his rule. His most infamous mark on history however, is his presumed starting of the Great Fire of Rome in 64 CE, which caused widespread destruction and was intentionally done to clear space for Nero's planned palatial complex, the Domus Aurea.<br/><br/>. In 68 CE, Nero was driven from the throne by rebellion, and he committed suicide that same year. With his death came the end of the Julio-Claudian dynasty, leading to the tumultuous period known as the Year of the Four Emperors.
