Nero's personality and crimes have always intrigued historians and writers of fiction. However, his reign also illuminates the nature of the Augustan Principate. Most fascinating to historians of the Roman Empire is Nero's final collapse which brought to an end the dynasty Augustus had founded, and placed in jeopardy the political system he had devised.
