If the ruler lived prior to 1100 and was east of what is now the United Kingdom, would his empire be most of Europe?
Chase

No, as far as landmasses go, his empire did not span "most" of what we know today as Europe. But it did span much of Western Continental Europe, and the entire coastal areas surrounding the Mediterranean.

To be specific, was this ruler ever known by or given the title of 'Caesar'?
Chase
Director
No, this ruler was not given the title of Caesar.
Free historical hint: The first Roman Emperor to use the name 'Caesar' without being given it at birth was the usurper Servius Galba, who claimed the title "Imperator Caesar" in AD 68. So while the man I'm thinking about has 'Caesar' in his name, it was a family name and not a title.
I think this narrows it down significantly...

Knowing the two related Casars were Julius Caesar and Caesar Augustus, did he have earrings?
Chase
Director
You may be thinking about the rumor that Julius Caesar made the hoop earring famous, but at this time in history, most men and women commonly wore earrings as a status symbol. It's possible that all emperors had their ears pierced.
So, yes. This ruler had earrings.

Is it Caligula?
Chase
Director
Yes, it's Gaius Julius Caesar Augustus Germanicus, otherwise known as Caligula.
Good job, Nevon.

Thank you, sir! I thought it was Nero haha, but I had 2 questions left so I guessed Caligula first.

Lucy:
Was just thinking, when someone says think outside the box....why does it have to be a box? Why can't it be anything you want? Like a closet? Or a door? Hehe

Lucy:
Okay this might need to become a topic....here's one step further..."Why are we assuming thinking has an “inside” and an “outside” at all?"

Lucy:
Why did we decide creativity requires escaping from something? Why do so many of our metaphors for creativity imply that ordinary thinking is a restriction?
-
Victorique:
It's because it hinges on the idea that everyone wants to be ordinary (aka "normal") and that being anything other should be punishable socially. It stems from imperial modes of thinking that harm people not white-cis-straight-abled-perisex-etc because the idea of normal is centred on "some guy"-isms -
