Aren’t we speaking of a Judicial finding here? Executive fiat in this Republic only applies to controls over the executive branch responsibilities.
Caesar eliminated the Republic by refusing to lay down the control over his ARMY which he brought back into Italy from Gaul. He and his successors ruled THROUGH the Senate no by executive fiat in any case. They never eliminated the Senate just its power.
Where did I “prescribe” anything? I only described.
“Caesar eliminated the Republic by refusing to lay down the control over his ARMY which he brought back into Italy from Gaul. He and his successors ruled THROUGH the Senate no by executive fiat in any case. They never eliminated the Senate just its power.”
There’s a reason the previous poster emboldened the word “republic.” It was the republican form of government that Caesar killed, even if the senate persisted in name. Or maybe he only put it in coma, and Augustus killed it. Whatever, Rome ceased to be a republic. I wonder, according to what you post, whether you know what a republic is.
