Caligula lived from 12 to 41 A.D. This timeline lists some major events in that time period. Note that this source uses C.E. instead of A.D.

Thank you for using the Jiskha Homework Help Forum.

1. (see the last paragraph): http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Caligula

2. (again look at several paragraph toward the end): http://www.roman-empire.net/emperors/caligula.html

NOTE: You discovered he was killed, but you need to see WHY.

3. http://www.roman-emperors.org/gaius.htm

He was killed both because he was cruel but also because of his vice. The 1979 movie is good if you can see it.
