(AD 37-68) a Roman emperor. Many people believe that he killed his mother, wives, and many others. He blamed the Christians for causing the great fire of Rome in AD 64 and many were killed. He also gave performances as an actor and musician, and is usually shown in pictures fiddling (=playing the violin) while Rome is on fire behind him. in full Nero Claudius Caesar Augustus (or Drusus) Germanicus orig. Lucius Domitius Ahenobarbus born Dec. 15, AD 37, Antium, Latium died June 9, 68, Rome Roman emperor (54-68). He was adopted by Claudius when the emperor married Nero's mother, Agrippina the Younger, and took the throne after Claudius died. He was guided by his tutor, Seneca, and by Agrippina until he murdered her and broke free of his advisers. By respecting the Senate and leaving imperial administration alone, he became popular in the east, but Boudicca's revolt in Britain (61), unemployment, and contempt for his frivolousness and excesses caused dissatisfaction. In 64 a fire, possibly lit at his orders, destroyed much of Rome; he persecuted the Christians as scapegoats and proceeded to build a garish palace, the Domus Aurea, on lands that had been privately held. With his reign in decline, he murdered his wife, Octavia, as well as her successor, Poppaea, ordered Seneca to kill himself, and executed senators who criticized him. Revolts in Gaul and Spain were led by Galba, who was declared emperor by his army. Nero came to be regarded as mad, giving public lyre and theatrical performances to the disgust of his subjects. Condemned by the Senate, he chose suicide over execution. Drusus Germanicus Nero Claudius Tiberius Claudius Nero Germanicus Nero Claudius Caesar Augustus or Drusus Germanicus Tiberius Claudius Nero
