Stop making a bloodthirsty murderer of Nero. I know very well that history loves dark characters - who makes a better scandalous figure than a mad emperor alive two thousand years ago, who is the subject of trumped up stories about setting fire to Rome and playing an instrument during the conflagration?
I don't want to romanticise Nero. Maybe he was a tyrant, maybe he wasn't. He probably wouldn't have set fire to Rome, since it wasn't in his interest. That's no magic, only logic, learn history before you keep up myths.
What I like to believe is that he was an actor, a poet and a musician, whose least suitable role was a ruler.
Maybe I'm wrong. Maybe I'm romanticising. I'm definitely not blindly following mainstream theories, groundlessly created by gossips looking for scandals.
