I was just wondering which modern actor would make a good Julius Caesar; we had a thread on that a while ago. It suddenly occurred to me who in the modern world not only looks like him but acts like him:

Some Russians are even calling him tsar, which as I understand is the Russian for Caesar..another coincidence.....or not.

D Very good point!!Couldnt have found a more accurate historical comparison for Putin if i tried.
Out of sight of subject shores, we kept even our eyes free from the defilement of tyranny. We, the most distant dwellers upon earth, the last of the free, have been shielded till today by our very remoteness and by the obscurity in which it has shrouded our name.

I don't like the idea of Putin = Caesar. Probably because I live in his equivalent to Gaul. :lol:
