    Gaius Julius Caesar
    Marcus Tullius Cicero
    Publius Cornelius Scipio Africanus
    Emperor Augustus
    Emperor Trajan
    Emperor Hadrian

    I'm gonna have to go with a 3-way tie between Gaius Julius Caesar, Emperor Augustus, and Cicero.

    Augustus was pretty cool, so were Traianus and Hardianus. Vergilius is pretty awesome as well. Julius Caesar is another obvious choice. Oh, and Nero, Otho and Caligula, because they were terrible yet amusing emperors.

    1. Caligula (because fuck the ocean with all their shells!)
    2. Ovidius (the first rock star really)
    3. Livius (because a sentence is the same thing as half a paragraph)
    4. Numa pompIlius, for bossing it out in peace
    5. Servius Tullius, for constructing census taxation.
